About Dr. Dre

Andre Romelle Young (born February 18, 1965), known by his stage name Dr. Dre, is an American rapper, record producer, and entrepreneur. He is the founder and current CEO of Aftermath Entertainment and Beats Electronics. Dre was previously the co-owner of, and an artist on, Death Row Records. He has produced albums for and overseen the careers of many rappers, including The D.O.C., Snoop Dogg, Eminem, Tupac, Xzibit, Knoc-turn'al, 50 Cent, The Game and Kendrick Lamar. He is credited as a key figure in the popularization of West Coast G-funk, a style of rap music characterized as synthesizer-based with slow, heavy beats.

Dre began his career as a member of the World Class Wreckin' Cru and later found fame with the influential gangsta rap group N.W.A with Eazy-E, Ice Cube, MC Ren, and DJ Yella, which popularized the use of explicit lyrics in rap to detail the violence of street life. His 1992 solo debut The Chronic, released under Death Row Records, led him to become one of the best-selling American performing artists of 1993.

In 1996, he left Death Row Records to establish his own label, Aftermath Entertainment. He released a solo album titled 2001 in 1999 to critical acclaim, with many considering it one of the best rap albums of all time. Dr. Dre signed Eminem in 1998 and 50 Cent in 2002 to his record label respectively, while contributing production on their albums. He has won six Grammy Awards, including Producer of the Year.

On August 7, 2015 Dr. Dre released his long awaited third studio album, Compton (also known as Compton: A Soundtrack by Dr. Dre). It was inspired by the cancelled Detox album and the movie Straight Outta Compton.

Another Detox Spotify playlist

https://open.spotify.com/playlist/7gzuva6M3eODfieL5tALGl?si=Xy_X79YVT8CsTKOG-ho5ZQ&pi=u-hKQQNdC7TC6V

Here's my 3.5 hour interpretation of Dre's Detox. No songs from his studio albums; just the few singles off of what would've dropped with the real Detox, his songs from The Contract, and other collabs. Hope yall enjoy.

Dre on Freak off list

Keep seeing Dr Dre’s name included in the Diddy’s “Freak Off” list. While we don’t actually know the real names yet it seems a bit off to me. I wasn’t aware Diddy and Dre were even close considering the west coast vs east coast thing back in the day plus Eminem and 50 Cent who are very close to Dre have publicly dissed Diddy. 50 cent especially, with his documentary that he’s apparently made it would be interesting if he called out Dre who launched his career.
