I just took some ecstasy, ain't no tellin' what the side effects could be.
Dr. Dre
Image
Engineering and mixing are absolutely key. Once a song is done, for me personally, it's usually two or three days to get the mix down.
Dr. Dre
Image
I love the new technology. New things give you a reason to want to go to the studio. New challenges mean you have to keep up, you know?
Dr. Dre
Image
When the ideas are coming, I don't stop until the ideas stop because that train doesn't come along all the time.
Dr. Dre
Image
Try to be the king, but the ace is back.
Dr. Dre
Image
If you work at rap and look at it as an art, the money will come. But if you try to get the money, it'll just always be shallow.
Dr. Dre
Image
I want to set the record straight for everybody who's been waiting to hear my music. The song that's out on the internet is an incomplete song that I'm still working on. When it's ready, you'll be hearing it from me.

I'd rather deal with Tipper than Bush. He's trying to kill everybody in jail.
Dr. Dre
Image
No matter how hard you work to bring yourself up, there's someone out there working just as hard, to put you down.
Dr. Dre
Image
You got to realise that when I was 20 years old, I had a house, a Mercedes, a Corvette and a million dollars in the bank before I could buy alcohol legally.
Dr. Dre
Image
Hear what the artists hear, and listen to the music the way they should, the way I do.
Dr. Dre
Image
Don't be worried about the next man - make sure your business tight.
Dr. Dre
Image
It's always weird when people approach me to make an investment. I tell them, 'I don't need any more money. I'm good.' Then I wait for their expression. That part is entertaining, because people look at you like you're crazy when you say you don't need any more money. Who says that?
Dr. Dre
Image
Anyone that's trying to do something to improve sound... that's all good.
Dr. Dre
Image
Name a sexual disease, she got it like Sam Goody.
Dr. Dre
Image
I've looked at pictures that my mom has of me, from when I was four years old at the turntable. I'm there, reaching up to play the records. I feel like I was bred to do what I do. I've been into music, and listening to music and critiquing it, my whole life.
Dr. Dre
Image
I can take a three-year-old and make a hit record with him.
Dr. Dre
Image
I don't even listen to the records after they come out. It's outlawed in my house. My wife and my kids can't play any of my music around me. Once it comes out, for me, it's just business. Numbers.
Dr. Dre
Image
In fact, I would advise against anyone doing reality shows. I won't be doing 'X Factor' just yet.

Black women are the strongest most hardworking people on earth.
