Dr. Dre is Getting An Award
On June 25th, ASCAP is going to present Dr. Dre with the Founders Award. ASCAP President/Chairman Paul Willaims said “Dre is one of the most important voices in modern music. He created a unique, recognizable sound that dominated rap music in the early 90’s..and continues to inspire artists and producers across all genres with his musical techniques.”
Dre’s ‘The Chronic’ has sold over 3 million copies and ‘Dr. Dre 2001’ has sold about 6 million. He’s also won five Grammy Awards and of course has hits with Mary J. Blige, 50 Cent, 2Pac, Gwen Stefani and Eminem.
Damn does he deserve that. Now if he can only get ‘Detox’ out sometime this decade.
