He makes beats. If it wasn't him it'd be someone else.
He's easily dispensable and I believe DJ Yella actually produced the majority of NWA's work.
Ice Cube was easily the best rapper in the group and released several influential albums.
On his own back, Dre only has the highly over-hyped Chronic to call upon. Sure, he's produced a bunch of stuff; but for who, Eminem, 50 Cent, Snoop Dogg?
I'd rather he hadn't.
