Death Row to reissue 'The Chronic'

Death Row Records has announced the release of The Re Lit & From The Vaults edition of Dr Dre's debut album The Chronic.

The revived label, which was bought earlier this year by WIDEawake Entertainment, will reissue a digitally remastered version of the 1992 record on September 1 complete with a bonus DVD.

The extra disc contains seven previously-unreleased songs, rare video footage and an interview with Dr Dre.

Death Row chief executive Lara Lavi told The Hollywood Reporter "We're sitting here with 10,000 masters, of which only 10% to 15% have been released to the public."

The label recently announced its intention to move into the movie business with upcoming feature film Sons 2 The Grave.

The tracklisting of the bonus disc is as follows:

• 'Poor Young Dave' (featuring Snoop Dogg)
• 'Slippin in the West' (featuring CPO and Kurupt)
• 'Smoke Enough Bud' (featuring Jewell and Snoop Dogg)
• 'Foo Nay Mic' (featuring CPO)
• 'Dog Collar' (featuring Snoop Dogg, Lady V, KV, Big Pimpin and Badazz)
• 'Touchdown' (featuring Snoop Dogg and Threat)
• 'Would You Ride' (featuring Kurupt, Daz and Snoop Dogg)
