Dr. Dre, the iconic producer behind West Coast rap music, announced that he is planning to take an extended break from music creation. In an interview with Ice Cube and Mike Epps for their podcast Listen and Laugh, Dr. Dre disclosed that he intends to disconnect from the music industry for the first time in his career. He stated that he would be "going away" and taking a "year or two off" to "get off the grid."
