Jimmy Iovine On “Beats by Dr. Dre”
Thursday, October 01 2009 10:11 AM EST | Posted by: B.Dot | Posted in: Blog, True StoryAt a recent press conference in NYC, Interscope’s head honcho explains how Beats by Dr. Dre came to fruition.
“The whole headphones thing came to life on its own. Dre and I were out in Malibu, I know some of you think Dre lives in the hood, but he has a house in Malibu,” said Iovine . “Anyway, we’re on his terrace in Malibu, and he says, ‘My lawyers want me to sell sneakers.’ I look at him and I say, ‘Fuck sneakers. Nobody cares what kind of sneakers you wear, but they would care about the speakers you use.’ And speakers turned into headphones.”
Well, that makes sense cents.
Props: Woooha





Who are you and what have you done with Guru? Seriously, we go from the emotional rollercoaster ride of thinkin' we're gonna lose one of the game's greatest MCs to some sick pathetic soap opera involving a man of no blood or kin relation denying family members the right to see their loved one. Now yes Keith Elam may not wanna reconcile with folks he hasn't been on good terms with for the past seven years but that's his decision not yours. From the outside lookin' in, you seem really shady. And if Guru's nephew claim is true that you signed documents as Keith Elam's brother and your wife as his sister than that's just plain alarming. An abuse of power. Releasing statements to websites and official Twitter accounts in Guru's name when he doesn't appear to be able to speak on his own behalf is also misleading and completely wrong. Be clear: At this point the only thing relevant and important is the status of Guru's health. Nobody gives a fuck about you or 7 Grand. Guru's legacy is Gang Starr. DJ Premier and Guru made classics. You and Guru make crap. And you should get slapped for meddling in family business.
I'm not dissin' but you shoulda stayed missing. Everybody in the club get tipsy. Nobody in the club remember your name. Damn shame.
i really thought dre lived in the hood!
Jimmy Iovine a bigger dummy for thinking that a guy we all know still haven’t spend his NWA millions still live in the hood.
lmao @ fck sneakers….
Speaking of sneakers….Dre is rocking some TIGHT kicks in that pictrure with Gaga and Jimmy.
Ummm, so Dre doesn’t live in the hood? What a shocker !
Wow! Now I REALLY know Jimmy Iovine is an ignorant racist fuck…Who in their right mines in 2009 thought Dre still lived in the fuckin’ hood?!?!?!? LMFAO!!!!!!! I hope not with the money he has. Then he would dubbed the realest nigga alive for pullin’ that off. Smfh @ Iovine. Ur smart, but not THAT smart. Lol!
