Hotel Foster Will Celebrate All Things Dr. Dre Next Month

Dre Day is coming

Jan. 19, 2015

7:00 p.m.

DRE DAY MKE / via Facebook

Few figures loom larger in hip-hop than Dr. Dre, the producer who laid the template for gangsta rap, recorded one of the more replayable rap albums of all time with The Chronic, and sired stars from Eminem to Snoop Dogg. Don't let his headphone-hocking, Dr. Pepper-drinking later years confuse you: The guy is a God, and if you were a teenager in the ’90s, odds are good you grew up quoting the guy.

Next month four figures from the Milwaukee hip-hop scene—Radio Milwaukee’s Tarik Moody and Jordan Lee (DJ Madhatter), along with WMSE’s Tyrone Bizzon Miller and Aaron Money—will host “a celebration of the life and music of Dr. Dre” at Hotel Foster on Thursday, Feb. 19, an evening perfectly titled Dre Day. It’ll feature music from Kiki Champ and Madhatter, who’ll spin a live mixtape built from Dr. Dre samples, as well as a Dr. Dre remix-themed installment of the Miltown Beat Down featuring four killer local producers, CameOne, FortymilBeats Forte, *hitmayng and Rason; Dr. Dre karaoke; and a “$20 Sack Pyramid Game Show” hosted by Aaron Money and Dana Coppa. That’s in addition to a Dr. Dre-inspired art gallery and a Chronic photo booth.

The event starts at 9. For more information, hit up its Facebook page.

...someday, ...we shall "Memorialize" the location...

...someday, ...we shall "Memorialize" the location where (Andre Young ) "Dr. Dre" was "TOLD" , (...in 1990-1991 @ CLuB GLaM SLaM, as Dr. Dre sat to our left in our drivers seat in one Mercedes Benz 190e he was interjected with the words "F*ck That" and then TOLD " ) , ...In the FUTURE the way you Sound in the Studio" was to be put into the Mercedes Car Stereo , the Sony Walkman and the Panasonic Car Phone upon the floor of that vehicle. We had listened to Dr. Dre and TOLD him while swiping our left hand as a "Price is Right" hand model across the center console. Dr. Dre's mouth flung WIDE OPEN and just said "GoTT-DUHAYMMnnn!!!" as these advents were NEWS to Andre. We shook hands on it and took pictures, and throughout many years of our lifetime we continued to remind Dr. Dre that he was To Do these things, we also utilized Interscope Records 1-800 - number divulging to key personnel of what of us was "FOR" Dr. Dre to DO , and how Dr. Dre had been TOLD prior at CLUB GLAM SLAM back in 1990-1991. A cassette tape single with "Gangsta Party and Hit em Up" was sent to us in the mail as we were priveleged to precede all radio. In accord with this treatment, our last meeting with Dr. Dre was backstage at N.B.C. in New York as Dr. Dre performed "Been there done That" on Saturday Night Live. Backstage with four in my company against the "plus one" of our liasons guest list we got to see, and TOLD ( Dre ) to DO, OUR thing and to TELL any of the many "of business" appearing men there dressed in black suits what you have. We were shown a man whom our liason called " the owner", this must have been "Jimmy iovene". ...Our reasons for interjecting what Dr. Dre had to say that morning in 1990-1991 have been kept private as (Dr. Dre is CLEAR). We are imitated by Jimmy iovene on "The Tanning Effect pt. 3 Steve Stoute Jimmy iovene interview on you tube. On the Steve Stoute WILL-I-AM interview pt. 3 on you tube this individual pretends involvement as well.. Our "the way you Sound in the studio" words to Dr. Dre have been used by 50 cent as well. The GOOGLE post of a "Self Proclaimed Inventor of Beats by Dre...." has a Steven Lamar stating he had a "vision" as he sat in a car with Jimmy iovene, this is for YOUR entertainment purposes ONLY. We READ he was given "Declaratory Relief" (in our absentia and without our knowledge of the proceedings) and is believed (as he'd logically prefer) to be the creator of this that has become called "Beats by Dre". (Jimmy iovene as well) , ,..as read , "...He fought back on Nov. 21 when Lamar claimed that Dre and Iovine admitted in their 2006 lawsuit that he did indeed help with Beats creation. Because no one denied Lamar's role, he believes nothing should come into question now...", ...very well, ....In 1990-1991 Dr. Dre was TOLD by us as well that, "...muthaf*ckas is gonna be wearin' this sh*t and don't even got it plugged into nuffin'...".
