Dr. Dre releases a mini movie as the video for his latest single I Need A Doctor ft. Eminem and Skylar Grey. The footage leading up to the start of the song is a montage of Dre’s life that flashes before his eyes just before he crashes his Ferrari. For long time hip hop fans you’ll recognize video clips of the late Eazy-E from the NWA days of 80′s rap, as well a posthumous cameo of Tupac Shakur from the California Love video.
The video recaps the ups and downs in Dre’s life. It shows glimpses of everything from his time at DeathRow Records with Snoop Dogg to getting married and losing his son Andre Jr. to an accidental drug overdose.
Also featured in the video is Eminem, Dr. Dre’s most successful protege to date. In scene straight out of Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein, Eminem can be seen trying to resurrect his fallen friend using a mixture of science and séance. The hook of the song is sung by Skylar Grey and has a very Rihanna ‘Love The Way You Lie’ ring to it.
Watch the video above and let us know what you think about the return of Dr. Dre.
