Dr. Dre Apologizes to the Women He Allegedly Assaulted

Dr. Dre has issued a statement to apologize to the women in his past who he has allegedly assaulted.

Following the massive success of his biopic Straight Outta Compton, journalist Dee Barnes spoke out about how his attacks on women were left out of the movie. Now, the rapper and billionaire mogul has released a statement to The New York Times.

“Twenty-five years ago I was a young man drinking too much and in over my head with no real structure in my life,” Dre said. “However, none of this is an excuse for what I did. I’ve been married for 19 years and every day I’m working to be a better man for my family, seeking guidance along the way. I’m doing everything I can so I never resemble that man again.”

“I apologize to the women I’ve hurt. I deeply regret what I did and know that it has forever impacted all of our lives,” Dre concluded.
