With Dr. Dre's mythical "Detox" album pushed back indefinitely yet again, it would be exciting to see Dre create something else in the meantime. Cynthia Mort, who is directing the upcoming Nina Simone biopic "Nina," is apparently seeking the scoring services of Dr. Dre.
The director is sending Dre a rough cut of the movie, in hopes that he will agree to do the score. Mort compared Dre to Quincy Jones, who did some scoring of his own.
"He's going to see a rough cut in about a week and a half," said Mort. "I would love for him to do what Quincy Jones did with 'In The Heat Of The Night,' and what Quincy did with 'In Cold Blood.' Quincy did a lot of scoring. I would love if Dre's next step would be to score it. That would be a great challenge."
