According to his longtime buddy and partner Snoop Dogg, Dr. Dre is allegedly working on new tracks for the GTA franchise. Video game informant Nibel (@Nibellion) believes Snoop Dogg is referring to the upcoming GTA remastered trilogy, or even GTA 6.
Dr. Dre could be releasing new music through the GTA Remastered Trilogy, according to Snoop Dogg
Snoop Dogg has opened up about Dr. Dre releasing new music, and this is supposedly happening through a GTA game. However, it has yet to be determined which game he is referring to. It could be the upcoming Definitive Edition trilogy, the eagerly awaited GTA 6, or even the next GTA Online update.
Dr. Dre hasn't released any solo music in years, since Compton came out in 2015. His new music could also be a nod to his upcoming album, Detox, which has been in the works for a while.
While some speculate that the music will be included in the new remasters, this appears to be a long shot. This is because the GTA Trilogy is not set in the modern era, and features popular music from the 80s, 90s, and early 2000s. In fact, GTA San Andreas includes some of Snoop Dogg and Dr. Dre's most popular tracks from the 1990s.
Besides, the Definitive Edition trilogy will be released in just two weeks. It seems improbable that Dr. Dre will be working on new music for the game in such a short period of time.
Some fans believe that GTA 5: Enhanced and Expanded will include the songs. GTA 6 hasn't been excluded from the list of possibilities either. If the soundtrack is for GTA 6, as the above tweet suggests, it could mean that Rockstar is in the music development phase for the game.
However, the most likely scenario is that the new music is for GTA Online's upcoming update. Rockstar has often collaborated with well-known artists, including Dr. Dre, in their multiplayer game. It's possible that he's returning for another such collaboration, or that he's simply using the game to launch his upcoming music. It must be clarified that everything known about the situation at this point is nothing but pure speculation.
