Dr. Dre

He is not a medical professional, but he definitely worked hard on making those sick beats. Andre Romelle Young, better known as Dr. Dre, first achieved success as a DJ and producer for the hip-hop act called N.W.A. The group featured the likes of Eazy E, DJ Yella, and Ice Cube. He later became a producer and solo artist. The Chronic was his first solo work and it was produced by none other than the infamous Suge Knight. It goes without saying that Dre later decided to break it off with Knight. He went on to produce successful artists, launched Aftermath Entertainment, appeared in different films, and co-produced Straight Outta Compton.
