Dre Day Happening This Year?








Jimmy Iovine & The Good Doctor had a sit down to talk to CNBC’s Maria Bartiromo about the new “Beats By Dre” headphones, and other impactful factors on the music industry. They touched upon how realistic it is to price these headphones at $350 US in an economy such as the one we currently have found ourselves in.
Jimmy goes on to somewhat save Dre’s a*s during the interview when the tough questions of how & why it would effectively sell to the average consumer, as it’s very apparent Andre Young aint used to speaking about, or pitching any product of his labour. The sh*t usually sells itself. In this case it somehwat has, because they mention how Kobe & Lebron use it, as well as the recent partnership with the Major League Baseball Association. They call it changing the ecosystem of music. Riiiiight.
Most important, at the 6:40 mark they discuss the Detox album, and Mr. Young says that the single will release within the month, and it features Hovito, entitled, “Under Pressure”.
Can they make another “Still D.R.E.” or “Lost One”?
Thoughts on the potential East – West colossal collab?

i dont know what you're smoking up there, but nuff people are still waiting for Dre to drop this classic. And with Jay as the lead single, there's no better match. Makes me wonder, why didnt he choose Eminem for his lead single? Someone...anyone in house? hmmm...
