You shouldn't, but why exactly is it "sickening" though? :leostare:
LOL. Don't worry, I'm black :birdman: Just sickening that so many people are getting hyped up about this. It just rubs me the wrong way. His name is on the headphones, but is he the success behind them, though? Or is he just another dude who made the right moves and is just benefiting?

Just had a thought. If Oprah, Jay-Z, Beyonce, Puffy, Master P, Birdman, 50 Cent, Russel Simmons and Dre all pooled their money together they could do SO MUCH for black people. As Dame Dash said it's really a tragedy that powerful black people don't collaborate together on social issues.
Yes, please tell other people what to spend their money on.

im not sure but i remember reading him and Dre own a combined 75% of beats and HTC owns the other 25%

my guess is he owns 50% or more


edit: HTC sold their 25% last year...i bet theyre mad as fukk they did that :heh:

HTC didn't willingly sell it. It wasn't really HTC moreso Dre and Jimmy buying it back. HTC had to maintain a certain market share within it's industry and it didn't so they were forced to sell

I thought him and iodine owned more maybe this is how they get to over 950 mill for him he just needs another few years and he'd be a billy..
Oh, you thought Dr.Dre was broke and needs a few years to reach a Billy :mjlol:

All the beats, All the Eminem money, Aftermath, 50cent, G-Unit/etc.

Long story short, he's already home...
