Dr. Dre's quotes

[asked if he thought that Eminem's being white would affect his being signed by Dre's record label Aftermath] I don't care if he's purple, as long as he can rap!
[about the misogyny in his songs) Black women are the strongest, most hardworking people on earth. The shit I talk on records about black women is just that: shit.
The only two things that scare me are God and the IRS.
I'm never gonna stop music, it's like air to me.
I am never going to give music up.
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.
People are always coming up to me, thinking I've got some magic wand that can make them a star and I want to tell them that no one can do that. Making hit records is not that easy. But it took me time to realize that myself.
I just want to get my music out and make sure that it's heard in the right way.
Black women are the strongest most hardworking people on earth.
I always loved the way music made me feel. I did sports at school and all, but when I got home, it was just music. Everybody in my neighborhood loved music. I could jump the back fence and be in the park where there were ghetto blasters everywhere.
When the ideas are coming, I don't stop until the ideas stop because that train doesn't come along all the time.
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.
I had fun doing it, but acting ain't really my thing. I am more of a production/director type. I would rather be behind the scenes and organizing and putting things together like that.
I'd rather deal with Tipper than Bush. He's trying to kill everybody in jail.
Anyone that's trying to do something to improve sound... that's all good.
Before now, I've always taken my mixes out to the car and listened to them in the parking lot. I still do that, but more so now I'm listening to it on the Beat box, and I think people should give it at least a listen and check it out and see what it is.
Mission accomplished, we didn't have any problems as far as violence goes.
In fact, I would advise against anyone doing reality shows. I won't be doing 'X Factor' just yet.
I'm gonna try and change the course of hip hop again.
(2013) 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.
(2013) I've gone seventy-nine hours without sleep, creating. When that flow is going, it's almost like a high. You don't want it to stop. You don't want to go to sleep for fear of missing something.
I have social anxiety. I don't like being in the spotlight, so I made a fucking weird career choice. That's the reason for my mystique and why I'm so secluded and why everybody knows nothing about me.
