It was a privilege to meet Dre before he passed. He was at circuit city In emeryville and he ended his conversation on the phone to let me and my sister meet him and pick his brain and talk to him for 20 minutes a experience I will never forget. Thizz in peace Dre
He was one of the most personable and like-able people you could ever meet and had a whole different energy around him, seen him change the whole vibe in a room.
@@auntjenifer7774 😂 good point but still though circuit city in emeryville?! i though that was gone long before Dre. maybe not though. i was about to graduate high school when mac dre died
Rip mac drevious aka thizzle washington' aka rondal dregan aka dre van halen aka Mr break a bitch thizz in peace Furl we love u from frisco to the V it's all love
Him and his clique were the first ones to bring the black homies, and the mexican homies all from different gangs and hoods, together on albums and songs "16 Wit Dre" . It might seem small but back then it was a HUGE DEAL....
Mac Dre was a true creative, never will be another like him. Beyond his creativity, dude had the most buttery flow, illest slang, tightest storytelling, and made countless classics. Sad we lost one of the GOATs
If you don’t like something KEEP IT PUSHIN… People be so mad and jealous at least the man was able to live his dream. People need to worry about themselves.
@Gene Collander and if he was still alive yall would both be wrong. lots of good artists out there Just to name a few: kendrick, Cole, Ab Soul, Reason, King Los, J Rock, Big Sean, Vince Staples, D Smoke, Freddie Gibbs, JID, RTJ, Buddy, Royce 5’9”, Pusha T, Tobe Nwigwe, Nipsey*, Grip, itsxmusic, Saba, Aminé, Smino, Spillage Village, Earth Gang, Chuuwee, Deante Hitchcock, Year of the Ox, Denzel Curry, Dom Kennedy, YG, Poli G, Big Krit, Azizi Gibson, Westside Boogie, G Yamazawa, Isaiah Rashad, Jack Harlow, Kid Kudi, Locksmith, Mayzin, Mick Jenkins, Prof., Benny the Butcher, Cozz,
@Gene Collander deteriorated how? you mean mainstream/ radio rap? technology has made it so we can always listen to good rap/hip hop and discover new artists all the time. also rap is still a very new music genre so its evolving and changing still.
@Gene Collander id love to hear what you think does or doesnt have musical value. rap has almost always had a lot of “bad” music to go with the good. i think it can be argued that there is a greater quantity of good music now than ever before just because of how accessible it is and the sheer number of artists.
@Gene Collander im not necessarily gonna disagree with you there but that’s kinda to he expected. Although perhaps they’re more meaningful music out there then you realize. Its super hard to be original in rap because in the last 40 years we’ve heard virtually everything. But have you heard Grip’s albums called “Snubnose” and “Porch”? He’s definitely saying something worth listening to. But the genre as a whole is evolving. Nowadays i only really listen to rap in the gym. Otherwise i prefer funk, groove, alternative etc. What are some rap artists that you do like though?
I went to a Mac Dre show once in Sac. Nicky was there too. My truck got broken into so they let me pull it into the lot. Saw Mac Dre arrive in a big body Benz, 2 or 3 girls wearing bikinis in the back. Dude went up did his set, then dipped. What a legend
His death for tough cuz he was such a humble ass dude. First thing I said when he died was like who the hell would hate Dre so much to shoot him. He didn't have beef with no one. Everyone loved.Dre
If you grew up millennial in the bay there was no racism instilled in us because of this man, we never saw color we just saw how you got down and that’s all it took.
This is my biggest flex!!!!!! Groi g up in the east bay with different cultures/ races / ethnicity really what built me up to respect people and there up bringing. No matter of they ever were right or wrong regardless of they're point of view. Because I knew what I knew of what people are capable of being. Even if they're racist, still show them love and expose them to that. Only way to dispose ugliness. ASIDE, A LOT A OF SLANG,STYLE, AND culture came from the bay area especially for the west coast. No matter what people say... Same goes in the east coast in Harlem, ect.
Foreal foreal. I'm from Vallejo and I moved to Austin Texas Feb 2021.. Way way different. Cats don't know how to take me out here cause I'ma Filipino Tatted up dude that talk different. I'm just a man born and raised in the beautiful diverse world of the Bay
On god Im been smoking woods here in Denver since 06-07ish Only cuzz of the cuddie furl On my life I use to search every local corner store in the hood to find backwoods And when I finally did I didn’t know what the fuck I was doing with it Until I heard the song Fly like a bird From Andre nickitina and dubee Dubee had a skit and he said “Unravel the backwood nigga” I was like dam my looie dropping gems for us lol I was N the 9th grade so was young Lol Thizz in peace al boo boo
“I bumped me a thick nurse be all in the bitch purse no chips she can disperse this just ain’t a slick verse!” Crazy times man glad to see this breath of fresh air. 100% guaranteed if he Mac was still alive the bay would be so much different. Now people say they aren’t bay they’re a certain area or region only. He worked overtime to make it a whole nation and once he left things changed 100%
Not just that but before that like 2 minutes in he was talking about a nobody rapper which we have all day their just feeding the public money and fake rappers emerge.

So much game in this 20 min interview smh. Dude really answers the questions clearly too a lot of people be saying a bunch of shit that don’t even answer the question. Mans game was precise. He had the perspective of the big label dudes people he really understands the game
I could only picture how great this man would have been. He seems intelligent and punctual he definitely knew more about life then what people wanted him to know.
Thata true but I don't think he would of made it to 2021 because all the drugs he did .. a lot of people said his health was terrible before the shooting due to all the shit he did
By now with his mentality he would of been buried and then alot time ago people like him are funny money wanna be hustler who always wanna come up and live in jail
As a white boy raised in the Midwest I first heard Dre in the late 90’s and loved his music. When I moved to the bay in 08 I was worried as a white dude bumping mac Dre might be a problem. The 2 years I was there was nothing but love from all types of ppl. Mac Dre brought all races together with his music. RIP king
I had the same experience moving to the Bay from Redding. Oakland, San Leandro took me in like I was their token white dude. Taking me to a side show but the rolling 30s 40s and 50s. Made some great friends in Oakland.
Thank you for posting this. He shares a lot of wisdom in this interview, great to see it in this quality and in it’s entirety. Also, don’t know if Nickatina reads these but you were (aside from J Diggs on “Don’t Snitch” the only rapper that held your own presence on tracks with Mac Dre - you did that consistently on every track you did together, often bringing the best out of each other in the process. Thank you for this and thank you for contribution to music
@Mac Mike Im not talking about the posthumous album but the one song called Andre N Andre which was released on a Andre Nickatina album from may 2004..and Dre died in november
The part at 07:09 when he's talking about how he loves seeing people from different walks of life vibing to his music, singin word for word. Well fuck, that's me. Shit brought a tear to my eye.
My first time meeting Mac Dre was in Sacramento at Circle K. After that Everytime I saw him it was Love.. I was a young Mac Dre fan in the 90s early in Dre's career.. 'Rappin Too Hard For Tha Radio' word for word... T. I. P ANDRE L. 'MAC DRE' HICKS 👑🤞🏿🙌🏿💪🏿🎩🗣️💔🖤✊🏿🤜🏿🤛🏿🙏🏿4️⃣💯

Man, that was definitely a hidden gem. Mac Dre was super humble in this interview. Genuine and natural. He never tried to hard to make a good song, it was all natural to him. God bless your soul and thank you for the gift of your good music Mac Dre. Thank you Andre for sharing this.

Definitely WAY ahead of his time! The rap game and today’s society needs MAC DRE more than ever! Thank YOU Nikatina for this video 🙏🏽 TIP FURL! THIZZ FOREVER
Man brah I can't believe it been so long since Dre passed. I was 14 when this man died back in 2004, the bay ain't been the same since.. THIZZ IN PEACE 🕊️🕊️ MAC DRE
My mind goes numb just thinking of what direction the music would've went in if Dre was still alive he was so ahead of his time blessed to have listened anything with his name on it 🙏🏿
This might be the best interview with a rapper that I’ve ever seen. And dude was asking A-1 questions!! This is such a gem. Man….it’s so tragic that we lost Mac. Say what you want about him, but he was so much more than just his stage persona. Dude was thoughtful and open minded. I think he would have taken a similar path as Snoop, and become an uncle to the younger generations and someone who introduces “outsiders” to hip-hop because of how personable he is. He would be dripping with wisdom if he was still here. This interview is proof of that.
I saw him in concert at the Phoenix theater in Petaluma, Ca Smoked out the theater with the Chronic and his Lyrics straight fire these kids now days have no idea...
Rip Mac Dre one of the best period I be wondering what strain he smoking on, them are the OG days the Sour D days and The blue Dreams days we all miss you Real G and Dre Dog we always be bumping you to my G killa wale stress factor speeding like demon on 101 south all day💯
Mac Dre. One of the best to do it. I was riding thru Houston and a chic heard me bangin the Mac and tripped out that she was hearing him way down south. RIP the Mac
i’m 18 and i grew up with this legend alwyas playing in the background around my house and fellas ima keep his name alive by playing his music for life n for my kids when i have em
It's nothing but love for the Bay area this man put on for the Bay area I too grew up to this kind of music living out there in Oregon Today year 2023 it's still This Or Die You Beezy 🙌🏽💯👍🏼💪🏽
The game got blessed when my guy MD put it down and displayed culture and his soul being so generously we won and got laced for lifetimes long live Furl 🙏🏼🤯💥
7:00 that makes me feel good. I went to an all boys college prep school in California around ‘00 and ALL YOU HEARD in the parking lot of school was MD. He’s saying that people like us where one of his main motivations for rapping. Rest in Paradise.

Man, if only he collabed with Treach, that would've been fire💯
I Saw him Rolling up before the interview, figured I'd Smoke too...

@@Tac-ManOfficial tbr that is really fucking good & both of you damn talented but nobody’s going to fully take yall serious for a few reasons. Like the man said in this interview, if rappers don’t look rich af any possible fans don’t wanna be around it. Fucked up but he was right about that
@@kevindube7096 that’s the truth, you gotta look the part for fans to be interested in simply clicking on the video...I appreciate the listen, and feedback 🙏
Dre dogg made my 20's absolute insane, everywhere I went was Dre & woods 24/7, pills and Vick's vapor rub lol. The realest there ever was... Dre changed my mind for good
First dude that really started smoking backwoods like that!
Definitely WAY ahead of his time! The rap game and today’s society needs MAC DRE more than ever! Thank YOU Nikatina for this video 🙏🏽 TIP FURL! THIZZ FOREVER

Man brah I can't believe it been so long since Dre passed. I was 14 when this man died back in 2004, the bay ain't been the same since.. THIZZ IN PEACE 🕊️🕊️ MAC DRE
I'm from KC and remember hearing what happened on the news...smh shit hurt our hearts in the town. Rip Mac Dre
i was always sad at the quality of this interview in the upload thats been on youtube for years this one looks fire
My mind goes numb just thinking of what direction the music would've went in if Dre was still alive he was so ahead of his time blessed to have listened anything with his name on it 🙏🏿
U will always be one of the realest people I never knew. U a big role model that we all need dre
U been up there wit jay z and nas in my eyes your influence was bigger being from Oakland
Thank you for everything DRE.!!!🙏🏼
This might be the best interview with a rapper that I’ve ever seen. And dude was asking A-1 questions!! This is such a gem. Man….it’s so tragic that we lost Mac. Say what you want about him, but he was so much more than just his stage persona. Dude was thoughtful and open minded. I think he would have taken a similar path as Snoop, and become an uncle to the younger generations and someone who introduces “outsiders” to hip-hop because of how personable he is. He would be dripping with wisdom if he was still here. This interview is proof of that.
RIP to one of the greatest 🙏
Still my favorite!!!!! I listen to at least 1 of his songs every day! T.I.P Andre Hicks
Mac Dre would be laughing at this new generation of rap
I love that the beginning is them setting up and getting ready while Mac Dre is straight chilling
I saw him in concert at the Phoenix theater in Petaluma, Ca Smoked out the theater with the Chronic and his Lyrics straight fire these kids now days have no idea...
Highly underrated and unrecognized!!! I don't give a shit what anyone says.. hes in my top 3
Oh this is an andre upload?
My other dude. Mac Dre and nickatinA. My best memories form my youth are driving around to your music. Great times.
Glad this popped up never thought about looking for a dre interview 🔥🔥✔️
The furl, the one and only. Truly miss this guy a lot. Thanks for posting this Nikki
My mans look so alive for this interview. RIP to the legend fasho.
im from the Crest, wish i could have Met Mac Dre an Reminded Him about His importance to the Country Club
He's one of the best rappers, nay musicians ever.
RIP brother.
Bro a true definition of a trend setter his rap style his swag his slang was years ahead of the game
That slow fade out at the end hit deep for me

I'm glad my brother showed me both Andre Nickatina and Mac Dre when I was a kid. I'm 23 now and still banging to their music.
Rip Mac Dre one of the best period I be wondering what strain he smoking on,
them are the OG days the Sour D days and The blue Dreams days we all miss you Real G and Dre Dog we always be bumping you to my G killa wale stress factor speeding like demon on 101 south all day💯
Mac Dre. One of the best to do it. I was riding thru Houston and a chic heard me bangin the Mac and tripped out that she was hearing him way down south. RIP the Mac
Excellent interview! He obliterated a beat for us in ‘02 session in Sac! So much game, so little time.
i’m 18 and i grew up with this legend alwyas playing in the background around my house and fellas ima keep his name alive by playing his music for life n for my kids when i have em
I liked the video before I even watched it🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
It's nothing but love for the Bay area this man put on for the Bay area I too grew up to this kind of music living out there in Oregon Today year 2023 it's still This Or Die You Beezy 🙌🏽💯👍🏼💪🏽
RIP BIG DOG.

We Need a Mac Dre Movie
What feel crazy to watch this and hear everything and watch how he moves feels crazy, DOPE

The game got blessed when my guy MD put it down and displayed culture and his soul being so generously we won and got laced for lifetimes long live Furl 🙏🏼🤯💥
Why does this look like a Chappelle Show skit lol
this is how all the media looked in the early 2000s lol. Chappelle's Show captured it perfectly.
This is a great interview. He had a great head on his shoulders, he knows his stuff.
Dre is one of greatest rappers to ever come out of the Bay Area.
7:00 that makes me feel good. I went to an all boys college prep school in California around ‘00 and ALL YOU HEARD in the parking lot of school was MD. He’s saying that people like us where one of his main motivations for rapping. Rest in Paradise.
Thank you!!! lost my copy of "The Gift"
"Biggest thing since the TV invention - not my job" I really felt that
You made it DRE you up there with Nip J zay biggie and Pac my brother.. miss you dawg
