Coming a long way since his days in Compton, Dr. Dre has become one of the biggest living figures in hip hop, period. Dr. Dre has helped numerous people become stars, some legends in their own rights. Eazy-E, Ice Cube, Snoop Dogg, Eminem, 50 Cent, Game, and Xzibit are among the artists who rose to stardom under Dr. Dre’s watch.

Dr. Dre also worked with a number of established artists, who enjoyed hits under his watch. Those list of artists include Jay-Z, Tupac Shakur, Busta Rhymes, Eve, and many others. Perhaps the brief working relationship between Dr. Dre and Tupac Shakur is his most-notable work. Tupac Shakur and Dr. Dre would work together for one year, before Dre left Death Row.

Despite how the relationship ended, Dr. Dre always makes it clear he never had any hard feelings toward Tupac Shakur. In many of his interviews, Dr. Dre is asked about his time working with the deceased legend. This was the case when Dr. Dre spoke to Ice T for “Something From Nothing: The Art of Rap” documentary, in which Dre discussed how Tupac wrote in the mic booth.
