Beats By Dre created a special edition of its studio wireless headphones for Straight Outta Compton.
The headphones are black with the logo of the movie on the band. They are for sale for $379.95 on the Beats website.
“Where you come from shapes who you are today,” the product description reads. “We all come Straight Outta somewhere, we all have our own unique stories. This studio wireless headphone is inspired by Straight Outta Compton in very limited quantities.”
The film depicts N.W.A‘s rise to prominence in the late 1980s and early 1990s. It brought in $60 million its opening weekend.
Dr. Dre sold Beats to Apple in May of last year for a reported $3.2 billion.

Good marketing. Those headphones still only cost bout $13 to make though.
Sounds like you’re making the most of your Intro to Business class at your local community college! Now you know how any electronics business works. Make products at an inexpensive price and sell for as high as you can for high profit margins.
Beats Fan – Still. $13 though.
Okay, fine. As long as I don’t buy a pair, I’ll feel alright.
