Dr Dre's next album will be the most advanced rap release ever, according to his co-producer.
Scott Storch told MTV that the album, called The Detox, probably wouldn't be out until 2005 but that it would be worth the wait.
He said: "I'd describe it as the most advanced rap album musically and lyrically we'll probably ever have a chance to listen to."
Dre has been working on the LP over the past year but no tracks have been titled yet and no final cuts chosen.
"When I work with Dre, he usually does more than 100 records and then picks his favorites," Storch said.
"But there are all kinds of new rhythms in there. He always tries to stay a couple of steps ahead of the field."
"Dr. Dre always tries to top his last one. That's why he spends so much time putting them together and they don't come out every five minutes. He puts a lot of time, energy and genius into the stuff."
Storch said Eminem, 50 Cent, Snoop Dogg and Knoc-Turn'al would all feature, as well as newer names like Lloyd Banks, Guvner and Game.
"The whole family is gonna be on there," Storch said. "If not the last Dre album, this is gonna be one of the last Dre albums we're gonna get. So he's putting a lot into it."
