quote from May 15th, 2013:

A few days ago it was announced that Dr. Dre and Jimmy Iovine would once again team up for a new venture, donating $70 million to USC for a new academy, the Jimmy Iovine and Andre Young Academy for Arts, Technology and the Business of Innovation. The academy will educate students who want to break in to the music industry, offering them an undergraduate degree.

A press conference was held on May 15th to make the announcement, following which L.A. Weekly caught a rare interview with both Dre and Iovine. They discuss how their initiative with USC began, and Dre talks about being inspired to get back in the studio, among other things.

Where did the idea for this program originate?

Jimmy Iovine: Everything we do together comes out of my and Dre’s many conversations we have multiple times a week, probably every day, like, “Jimmy don’t you hate the way kids are listening to music on the radio?” [In this case] we decided we wanted to give back and do something because we’ve been very fortunate over the last 20 years and Dre has always wanted to give back. So I said to Dre, “Ok why don’t we do it together?” And we go to Beats and see that all these kids are so…so good at understanding technology and have a feel for the art, or the other way around. Then we look at Beats and say “Geez we need kids like that here!”

Dre, how do you feel about ushering in a whole new phase of your career, and how does it compare to earlier phases?

Dr. Dre: This is absolutely the biggest thing I’ve been a part of in my entire career. I am just excited to be a part of something that is going to be there forever. How many people can say that? This is huge.

Then again, you did help usher in gangster rap, and that was pretty big culturally too, as it affected the whole world.

Dr. Dre: Yeah, that was great but I felt like this is, this is much more important. It’s because of the potential it has: A kid can come through here, and go on to potentially change the world.

And, does this program mean that “Detox” will be further delayed?

Dr. Dre: No, I’m more inspired to go back into the studio now. Beats is rolling, this thing is happening, and it’s incredible. Now I’m ready to go back to my first love.

"I Need A Doctor" was Dres biggest single ever commercialy, I'm surprised they.didn't drop off the back of that. I guess a lot of people did shyt on it though

Number 4 on the charts and double platinum. Dre never made a California Love, No Diggity or In Da Club as a solo artist. Check the numbers breh.

Nah I believe you playa, but out of all the classic shyt he's done, for this to be the best selling tune is mind boggling. Sold more than them 2001 joints

 

[True Blue Moon]

This is a running joke, but it is true. I've been waiting for Detox since like 10th grade and I'm 27. WTF.

Yeah shyt is ridiculous, its a sign on the digital era though. 2001 went 7x and none of the singles even went Gold, shyts done a 180.

Dre can keep that bullshyt to himself
