New music: Dr Dre feat Jay-Z – Under Pressure

hip-hop legend Dr Dre, AKA Andre Young
He's back, and we're guessing he still has love for the streets

Dr Dre's third album has been over 10 years in the making, but finally Detox showed signs of life this month. Under Presure (mercifully not a reworking of the Queen/Bowie song) featuring Jay-Z popped up on blogs yesterday, months after its existence was first mentioned. So far, reaction is mixed, but the consensus seems to be a thumbs down. "Under Pressure sounds like Dre was wearing Beats by Black Eyed Peas headphones," wrote @itsthereal on Twitter, while others posted that it sounded like a Justin Timberlake beat (so a Timbaland beat, then?). What do you think?
