Dr. Dre marries Monster
In another Hip-Hop plus Technology love story (see Jigga + Apple rumor below), big time producer and former NWA member Dr. Dre (2001 Instrumentals is on my top ten all time best albums list), has teamed up with Monster Cables and Interscope Records Jimmy Iovine to develop the new state of the art 'Beats' headphones.
'Las Vegas, NV, January 6, 2008 - Monster, well known for working with legendary musicians on countless productions recorded with Monster Cable and Monster Power products, is proud to announce 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 groundbreaking and inventive engineering by Monster. The headphones feature both a unique and futuristic style as well as newly developed sonic technologies for unprecedented state-of-the-art performance.'

All for the suggested retail price of $400 smackaroos.

Technology plus Hip-Hop? What could be better? It's a good look for both industries I think.
