About Me

Dr. Dre (born Andre Young) is an American rapper, producer, executive and actor, whose fortune is derived mostly from the Aftermath Entertainment record label and Beats Electronics. He began his career in 1984 with World Class Wreckin' Cru, gained fame as a founding member of rap group, N.W.A., and helped define the sound of West Coast Hip-Hop as a leading artist and producer. After N.W.A disbanded, Dre created Aftermath Entertainment, a record label housed under Jimmy Iovine's Interscope Records that became home to superstar rappers Eminem, 50- Cent and Kendrick Lamar. With Iovine, Dre created the Beats headphone brand, which they and other investors sold to Apple in 2014 for more than $3 billion in cash and stock. In 2024, Dre and Snoop Dogg, launched Gin & Juice by Dre and Snoop, a ready-to-drink alcohol brand inspired by their iconic 1994 song.
