Update: The stream is now live, an hour early.
Earlier this week, Dr. Dre announced that his first new album in 15 years while hosting his show on Apple Music’s Beats 1 station. While the album has been available for preorder since then, it will be available to stream for free on Apple Music later tonight at 6PM PT. The album, entitled Compton: A Soundtrack, is entirely exclusive to Apple and is being described by Dre as his “grand finale.”
Compton: A Soundtrack has 16 tracks and includes features from artists such as Snoop Dog, Kendrick Lamar, Eminem, Ice Cube, and many more. Dre also announced today that he will take all royalties he earns from this album and put them towards funding a new performing arts facility in Compton, California.
Dr. Dre’s new album will be available to stream on Apple Music in tonight at 6PM PT/9PM ET. The album will be up for three hours, until 9PM PT/12AM ET, so you don’t have a huge window of time to listen to it. You can also preorder the 16-track record on iTunes now for $13.99. The album will be available for purchase and on Apple Music permanently tomorrow, August 7th.

Since the album is being released tomorrow anyways.. and it ends at 12AM EST, wouldn’t it mean that the album is just going to stay up on Apple Music?
Or is this album going to be purchase only after tonight, if so then that’s the worst thing Apple could do for its service. Why would you subscribe when even an Apple exec won’t put his music on the service?
No wonder it took him 15 years to make; it’s filled with features¡
I like it. I’m on the third song. this It’s All On Me song is amazing.
So much for uncensored
How’s that? The F word is scattered throughout; it’s not censored.
Stream? That album is already downloaded to my iTunes!
I like that sample in For the love of money.
