Music as cinema. The whole “Compton” album is meant to accompany the release of Straight Out Of Compton, and by listening to every song on this masterpiece over and over, I’ve found that it was inspired and intentionally designed to take the listener to the city it was named after. Water, seagulls, wind, the voice of someone drowing: these are all the things that are artfully blended in with drums, a melodic baseline, and an arrangement of sound of effects that leaves you feeling submerged. I’d rather much be drowning in music than in water, and thanks to Dr Dre., now we know what it sounds like.
