Yesterday, the hip-hop world celebrated the birth of one of the most influential artists in the rap game. The living legend is described as none other than one and only Dr. Dre. Not only was Dre the first rap billionaire, but he was also an instrumental part in the creation of a new sub-genre of hip-hop, known as G-Funk.
The life and career of Dr. Dre have been able to make Rap and Hip-Hop what they are today. Without him, who knows where Snoop Dogg, Eminem, 50 Cent, The Game and Kendrick Lamar would be today. From everyone at Southpawers, Happy Birthday, DRE. May you have many more successes-filled years.
An icon from Compton received birthday wishes from hip-hop community. Eminem, who rarely posts on social media, shared a throwback picture from 2022 Super Bowl Halftime show. In the caption, Em used a line from “What’s The Difference” single: “You better show some respect whenever the doc’s brought up.. happy bday @drdre.”
Busta Rhymes also shared a throwback picture with Dr. Dre from the studio session with the caption: “Happy Born Day to the Good Doctor @drdre Thank you for everything you’ve given us King. Enjoy it to the fullest family. More Life King!!”
