On March 19, Dr. Dre was rewarded for his legendary career. He was recognized with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. And while he’s arguably the greatest producer of all time, Dr. Dre says he still has a lot of work to do.
“I am incredibly grateful for your support over the years. Most of us have grown up together. And at almost 60 years old, you’re still rocking with me, and I really appreciate it. Thank you so much. Which is really good, because I’m not done yet. You better believe there is much more to come,” he said during the ceremony.
“Devoting my entire soul and being to my passion for hip-hop led me down the path to an incredible career, and I have been fortunate to make a living doing exactly what I love to do.”
Snoop Dogg pays tribute to Dr. Dre
Dr. Dre grew up in the Compton area of Los Angeles. There he created several associations in the music industry. Eazy-E, Ice Cube and Suge Knight are just a few of the people he linked up with on the West Coast. But linking up with Snoop Dogg may have been the most beneficial partnership he made during his time in Los Angeles.
During the ceremony, Snoop paid tribute to the super producer and the impact he has had on his career.
“I want to thank myself for listening to Dre over the years and allowing him to be my teacher, mentor, brother, guardian, protector and most importantly, a good friend,” he said.
“I thank you for being a perfectionist and pushing me to be great,” he said. “You always bring out the best in Dogg, Dr. Dre, and I appreciate that.”
Super producer proclaims Eminem The GOAT
Dr. Dre has worked with some of the best talent in the music industry. Snoop Dogg, 50 Cent and Eazy-E are just a few of the hip-hop legends he has collaborated with. But even with all the talented artists he’s worked with, Dr. Dre says Eminem is the best emcee to grace a microphone.
“His imagination is off the charts and I don’t think anyone would disagree with that. I think he is the best MC of all time. Stay blank and period,” he said.
“Of course, there will be arguments about it because he is a white man. “I don’t think anyone who’s rapping can touch Eminem on that microphone.”
