So you know how Rick Ross , Jay-Z, and Dr. Dre's collaboration on God Forgives, I Don't was pretty lackluster? Well, then you will find solace in knowing that they're getting into some trouble over " 3 Kings ". It turns out that the sample on the track—Crowns of Glory's "I'm So Grateful (Keep In Touch)"—might not have been properly authorized for use. At least, that's what Crowns of Glory, a gospel duo, is claiming in their lawsuit against the three rap giants, producer Jake One, and Universal Music Group. The owners of [...]

Gizmodo's Sam Biddle has a fantastically interesting story on Monster, a company known for ripping customers off for over-priced HDMI cables, getting screwed over by Dr. Dre and Jimmy Iovine's quest to sell over-priced headphones. The Monsters knew that if they could harness Dre's "entertainment and sports" contacts they could launch their company into the mainstream. They were right, but they were also woefully underprepared for the path to success; in the process, they blew almost every business decision possible. When Kevin Lee went to LA to negotiate, he had nothing but [...]
It's like this and like that and like this and uh, Dr. Dre, creep to the mic like a phantom to deliver the 115th Most Acclaimed Album of All Time. Deeez Nuuuts! Mendelsohn: Sometimes I find myself wondering what the record industry would look like had certain albums never been recorded. What would music in general be like had the Beach Boys not released Pet Sounds or if Nirvana never released Nevermind? I think Dr. Dre's The Chronic is one of those albums that fundamentally changed the music industry is such a profound way that we may never fully [...]

Claptone smashed the charts last year with his track Cream and several other releases inclusive of the Night on Fire, and is now back with his EP Wrong. The first track 'Wrong' resonates the ostinato from Dr Dre's 'Still Dre' and is further blended with production elements of 'Cream'. This mix of familiar deep house vibes with nostalgia should make it a bit of crowd pleaser. The second track 'No Eyes' features JAW from dOP on vocals and echoes a soft warm melancholic ambiance; great tune, chilled vibes with catchy melody. Whether you're looking for something to spin on the [...]

And while Sony is said to have already offered a $50 million contract and a meeting is scheduled with Universal, T.I. is also in talks with Dr. Dre. Another possibility: aligning with Jay-Z's Roc Nation. While deals are on the table, T.I. has his own criteria [...]
Eazy E on the Arsenio Hall show at the height of his beef with Dre and Death Row. He is wearing a bath robe. This has made the rounds on the Internet many times over, but it came up in conversation with a friend a few days ago. Hence, I am re-posting one of the greatest late night appearances in television history. This is better than Jack Kerouac reading from the wrong book on the Steve Allen show and the time that Tiny Tim got married. Frank Ocean on SNL was cool, but I will take [...]
