On February 18 Dr. Dre turned 55. He is a legendary rapper and producer whose records went platinum in the 1980s, 1990s, 2000s and 2010s. And soon, we hope, “Music To Be Murdered By” will bring him a new Platinum certificate in the 2020s.
Dr. Dre has been supported Eminem since the early years of his career and Marshall never forgets to express his gratitude. Especially on a day that big:
So everybody just follow me… and wish @drdre a happy birthday! pic.twitter.com/wtKizPn52h

And everybody followed. 50 Cent also has something to say:
Happy Birthday to the most influential man in hip hop God bless @drdre it’s all LOVE. #lecheminduroi #bransoncognac pic.twitter.com/3qI6PlZGgm
