DR.DRE NEW HEADPHONES
Monster has announced the introduction of the first-ever product to be endorsed by legendary music producer and artist Dr. Dre.
The new “Beats by Dr. Dre” high-performance headphones were conceived by Dr. Dre and mutually designed, with inventive engineering by Monster. Theheadphones feature both a unique and futuristic style as well as newly developed sonic technologies for unprecedented state-of-the-art performance.
When world-class producers like Dr. Dre record their music, they utilize large high-performance studio loudspeakers and high-powered amplifiers to craft richly detailed musical soundscapes. Until now, however, consumers listening back to the music using conventional headphones have never had the opportunity to experience the full sonic palette of these recordings, with the full dynamic range, low bass, punch and clarity intended by the producers. To provide consumers with a brand new level of headphone audio performance, Dr. Dre, Jimmy Iovine, Chairman of Interscope Geffen A&M Records, and Monster, teamed up to create “Beats by Dr. Dre.”
Ray J recently signed a new multi-million dollar, Universal venture with KOCH. This multi-album deal marks a joint partnership between Shaquille O’Neal and Money Mark’s entertainment company DEJA34 and Ray J’s Knockout Entertainment and will be marketed and distributed by KOCH Records. DJ Kay Slay will executive produce “All I Feel”. The album features the new single “Sexy Can I” Feat. Yung Berg. A video for the track, directed by R. Malcolm Jones (Lil’ Mama, DJ Khaled, Clipse) was shot in December and will be serviced everywhere shortly
Ray J will be releasing his new album entitled “All I Feel” in April.
