"Dr. Dre is an influential force in music," said Deborah Dugan, President/CEO of the Recording Academy, in a press release.
"Dre breaks boundaries and inspires music creators across every genre. His evolution as a producer solidifies him as a leader of the pack within our industry, and we watch in amazement as he continues to shape the future of music."
Dr. Dre’s musical legacy expands over three decades. The veteran hitmaker started his career in the early 1980s as a DJ for the World Class Wreckin’ Cru before becoming a member of the legendary West Coast rap group N.W.A. In 1991, Dre, along with Suge Knight, founded Death Row Records, and gave us the classic album The Chronic. Dre also produced classic albums for Death Row artists Snoop Dogg (Doggystyle) and the late Tupac Shakur (All Eyez on Me).
The 2018 Grammy Hall of Fame inductee would later produce songs for Eminem, 50 Cent, The Game, LL Cool J, Xzibit, Jay-Z and so many others.
