Dr. Dre and Nicole Young’s divorce keeps getting uglier. According to Page Six, the producer’s estranged wife has filed a lawsuit claiming she co-owns the trademark to his moniker and his seminal, multi-platinum album The Chronic.
Court documents reportedly allege Dre was also“caught secretly transferring valuable trademarks he owned with his wife … to a newly created asset holding company that he created and controlled after he expelled his wife from their home, and before he threatened to file divorce.”
The docs further go on to assassinate Dre’s character with, “Two days after the threat, Nicole had no choice and initiated divorce proceedings. Andre’s transparent and reprehensible scheme to transfer these assets away, without Nicole’s knowledge or consent, so he could retain more for himself in a divorce from his wife of 24 years, and the mother of his three children, is an epic failure and reveals the true nature of his character, or lack thereof.”
Young claims after Dre forced her out of their family home in April, “he quickly plotted to secretly transfer their assets, to deny Nicole her equal share.”
Her legal team, which includes celebrity attorney Bryan J. Freeman, wants the trademarks to be put in a trust. She’s also suing for damages and legal fees.

Meanwhile, Dre’s lawyers alleged Young has refused to turn over his belongings from the Malibu home where she’s staying, including his golf clubs, a motorcycle and registered handgun. But, she argued he can afford replacements.
Young has asked for Dre, whose estimated net worth is over $1 billion, to pay her roughly $2 million per month in temporary spousal support as well as $5 million for legal fees.
Although it was initially reported they didn’t have a prenuptial agreement, it turned out Dre — in fact — did have Young sign one prior to their marriage. But she believes it’s null and void because Dre not only “forced” her to sign it but also once ripped the paper in half as some kind of romantic gesture.
The couple married in 1996 and have two adult children together.
As far as The Chronic, the album dropped in 1992 and catapulted Dre and Snoop Dogg to notoriety. The project peaked at No. 3 on the Billboard 200 and has been certified 3x-platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). As a result, Dre becoming one of the Top 10 best-selling American performing artists of 1993. Songs on the project included “Nuthin But A G Thang,” “Let Me Ride” and “Lil’ Ghetto Boy.”
what the fuck happened for them to split anyway.
She caught Dre sucking my big black Johnson!
Nicole’s clit shrunk as she got older and it no longer resembles a cock …
Can someone kill the bitch already??
Coming from the same person that says BLM
That bitch white
Trust no bitch
Regardless of whom was in the wrong or reason for their split, this will only get messier. I hope they can come to peace with each other.
If they have been together 24 years, and “The Chronic” came out in ’92, how can she claim she had anything to do with it if they weren’t even together?
Ehh maybe because she is his wife and the mother of his kids….duh.
Okay she has to just be trolling at this point…either that or grasping for straws
Getting Married Is A Death Sentence
Don’t get HIGH on Ur own Supply!!!!!
The best she can hope for is a reality tv show to find a new husband. Count your blessings darling.
she contributed absolutly nothing but a headache. i hope dre throws this bitch in the street with 1500$ payments
I wish he could, but I already know it’s gonna be more than that. But shouldn’t be more than 3500
Gotta admire what a cold hearted bitch she is, showing Dre no mercy in all of this lol. I’d love for her to win just so I could see Dre’s stupid old geriatric ass weeping in the courtroom.
this is why no matter how nice she is always get her to sign a prenup. if she won’t tell her to hit the bricks
Ripping the prenup in half is not a legal nullification, she shouldn’t win that
Plus it didn’t even happen
… That’s some cold shit.
Don’t think Dre even has ownership of ‘The Chronic’…. thought that belonged to Suge and Death Row? Maybe ‘2001’ but def not ‘92 edition!!! This ho be clutching at straws right now… She should just be grateful for the life his success has afforded her for 24 years and accept a small portion cos I don’t see her in the studio with Em or Snoop etc… at 3am mixing shit down or mastering albums!!! Bitch probably don’t even cook or clean…. you can’t make a ho a housewife I guess, not even after 24 years!!!!
“you can’t make a ho a housewife I guess, not even after 24 years!!!!” / LOL!!! true but Dre be that naqqa on vacation all the time. Working till 3am? That’s debatable bro and highly doubtful …
Suge sold the rights to death row years ago and lost all the assets. Nicole won’t get any of dres music rights. This will be settled out of court, she’s just being a idiot, to antagonise Dre. She will end up dating trippie redd or something like that
what a bastard eh the ex-wife is taking you for all you are worth. he might become a broken man then hit the bottle.
Even if she don’t win at least she’s sweatin him naqqa been livin on easy street for decades … get him mami!
Hmmm. White ex wife…black ex husband… wonder who the judge favors? Like she deserves any of his hard work. Two Milly a month? Sounds like someone got TOO comfortable in a lifestyle she never worked for.
She’s latina, puto, wakey wakey …
You both wrong lol – chumps
She’s a Maori
Um, she’s not white dude.
Dre’s soon to be ex wife is relentless. This very public divorce is nasty.
Bitch needs to get shot ASAP
The higher you go the further the fall.
