Dr Dre to be given executive roles at Apple following his $3.2 billion deal!

Reports indicate that Beats co-founders Jimmy Iovine and Dr Dre will both be given executive roles at Apple following the purchase of headphone maker Beats.

Last week it emerged that Apple was in talks with headphone maker Beats Electronics over a $3.2 billion (£1.9bn) takeover that would make Dre the first Hiphop billionaire.

Dre appeared to confirm the purchase last Friday, stating in video that he had just become the “first billionaire in hip-hop”.
