Back in August, it was reported that Dr. Dre’s 20-year old son, Andre Young Jr., died from unknown causes. The exact cause of death was only recently revealed last week by the Los Angeles County’s Coroner. A department spokesman officially released a statement saying “This case has been closed, it’s been ruled an accident due to morphine and heroin intoxication.” It’s a sad thought to have that be the cause of his death but at the very least, we can all hope that the rapper and the rest of the family can now move on with the knowledge of what really happened to his son.

One of the half dozen most influential producers of the modern pop era is just about ready to just kick back and relax. That is, until after he releases his upcoming album.

Dr. Dre has announced that he will be retiring after the release of his solo album ‘Detox’. It’s the album that has been in the works for about eight long years. It’s a time frame that is worrisome for most especially when the likes of Phil Spector, Brian Wilson and Axl Rose have pretty much sealed their fates as has-beens after a long time out of the spotlight.

The difference may very well be in the fact that Dr. Dre has not only been working on his album but has worked on other artists’ albums as well, giving him a lot of creative ideas.
