00:00 All of whom got stars before me for some f***ing reason."
00:05 No one can ever forget about Dr. Dre.
00:07 Not even Eminem, 50 Cent, and Snoop Dogg, who were all present to support the rap mogul
00:11 at his induction into the Hollywood Walk of Fame on March 19.
00:15 Sitting front row, the rappers cheered on Dre as the 59-year-old received his star.
00:20 Big Boi was there to introduce the ceremony and speak about Dr. Dre's lifetime and work
00:24 accomplishments.

00:34 and Beats Electronics, entrepreneur, and philanthropist, Dr. Dre began his career as a member of the
00:43 world-class Wrecking Crew."
00:44 Dr. Dre went on to talk about how he has finally joined his childhood heroes on the sidewalk.
00:49 "I'd like to thank the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce who felt that I was finally ready
00:54 to walk in the footsteps of Ice Cube, Snoop Dogg, 50 Cent, all of whom got stars before
01:01 me for some f***ing reason.
01:03 Well, don't trip, I'm not bitter.
01:08 It's all good.
01:11 I'm here now.
01:12 All right?
01:13 No, but in all seriousness, I love the idea of being memorialized on the Hollywood Walk
01:18 of Fame.
01:19 It's an incredible tribute to my artistry.
01:22 Growing up in Compton, I never imagined that I would one day be represented here among
01:26 some of my childhood heroes.
01:30 We've heard the saying a million times before, focus on your passion and the rest will follow,
01:34 and that's exactly what it is for me.
01:38 Pouring my whole soul and self into my passion for hip-hop led me on the pathway to an incredible
01:43 career and I've been fortunate enough to make a living doing exactly what I love to do.
01:49 How about that?
01:52 Is that the dream, right?
01:54 Yeah.
01:55 And over the course of my career, I've had the privilege of finding and nurturing new
01:59 talent as well as pushing the boundaries of hip-hop, both in content and substance.
02:05 But I'm most proud of elevating the clarity and sound of how we experience hip-hop.
02:11 Getting that thing right is one of my greatest achievements.
02:15 You know, the clarity of hip-hop.
02:18 You know, I love that this honor is unique to Los Angeles and brings fans from all over
02:23 the world to my hometown to connect with their favorite artists.
02:27 So yeah, I'll be here forever.
02:32 Yeah.
02:35 I'm incredibly grateful for your support throughout the years.
02:38 Most of us have grown up together and at nearly 60 years old, you're still rocking with me
02:46 and I really appreciate that.
02:48 Snoop Dogg then took the stage to celebrate his longtime friend and collaborator in his
02:52 career milestone.
02:53 I want to thank me for listening to Dre for over the years and letting him be my teacher,
02:58 mentor, brother, guardian, protector, and most importantly, a good friend.
03:05 I want to thank me for showing up on time at the Super Bowl.
03:11 And of course, the Drop It Like It's Hot rapper broke into a rap.
03:14 Dr. Dre, my brother from another mother.
03:17 A rock in the sands on the beach he'd soon discover.
03:20 Now we deep cover.
03:21 Blood brothers on a mission.
03:23 Dre's edition.
03:24 House with no furniture, studio in the back with a little bit of food in the kitchen.
03:28 Long Beach to Compton to Calabasas.
03:31 Compositions, pay attention.
03:33 Quincy had Michael, they rewrote the cycle.
03:35 So if Dre is Q and Mike is Snoop, we bang.

04:08 I rap to your beats.
04:09 Bars from the stars, from the streets to the suites.
04:13 Low riders hop once Dre beat drop.
04:15 Forever in our hearts, now engraved on the Hollywood blocks.
04:19 With the Sinatras and Oscars, movie stars and mobsters.
04:23 Spooned and groomed with the crispy flow.
04:25 Dre your s**t bang in the club, but it sound way much better in a rag top 60 fold.
04:33 Now take a look at us.
04:35 Over 30 years later and we still on the grind in the studio.
04:38 And you still, still make me do every line 100 motherf***** times.
04:46 Still.
04:48 And I thank you for that perfectionist.
04:50 I thank you for being a perfectionist and always pushing me to be great.
04:54 You always bring out the best of the dog Dr. Dre and that I do appreciate.
04:59 There would be no Snoop without Dre.
05:01 Together we created magic in the studio and our collaborations have left a mark on the
05:05 world of music.
05:06 From intro to endo, our partnership has been legendary.
05:11 Dre the motherf***** doctor.
05:14 Congratulations on this well-deserved honor and welcome to my motherf***** neighborhood.
05:20 Get your walk on, cuh.
