While the fan joked about the infrequency of releases from Lamar, Dr. Dre recently explained that fans' willingness to be patient with his music is a sign of his true artistry. Appearing on Kevin Hart’s Hart to Heart talk show on Peacock, Dre explained his reasoning while refusing to take credit for Lamar's success.

“I can’t take credit for Kendrick Lamar,” he said on the show, adding that he "is a real motherfuckin’ artist, the true definition of the word. The only thing I can take credit for is opening the door for him because he’s done everything himself — him and [his manager] Dave Free... Some artists feel like, ‘I have to do something all the time so I won’t be forgotten.’ That’s not him. He can disappear and come back with something that’s shocking, that’s amazing and everyone’s gonna tune in and listen.”
