Oh my!
I remember bumping strait out of compton back in the day. These guys were just hitting the scene out west back when I lived in Anaheim. Good Lord, I was like twelve when I was listening to this stuff lol. Gangster rap exploded in so cal because of these guys back then. Ice cube, Dre, Eazy E, Yella and someone else.
We did the same thing in N. Minneapolis and east st. Paul. Gangsta rap was huge! I left my metal roots and was in that scene for a while. Everyone new music was a way to make mo ey and rap was very huge and exploding. But one would have never thought it could have been turned into a billion dollar enterprise. Dre is a true entrepenuer. Take a skil. Make some money. Fu d others to make you more money then create a product with brand recognition and huge sales. Walla, in steps apple and offers you 3.2 billion dollars for your company that is primarily based off headphone sales. Headphones have been arou d for decades, but to sell a head phone company for that much is damn impressive.
