Dr. Dre and Nicole Young were married for roughly 24 years and, by all outward appearances, seemed to have it made. But behind the scenes, their relationship was apparently crumbling, which led to Young filing for divorce in June.
As the former couple struggles over the famed producer’s $1 billion fortune, thing have taken yet another contentious turn. According to TMZ, Young has been accused of “decimating” the bank account of Record One recording studio, a company she and Dre co-founded in 2015. Record One is operated by an LLC along with co-owner Larry Chatman, who claims Young pilfered $353,571.85 from the company last month.
Happier Times
Attorney Ed McPherson, who reps the LLC that operates Record One, fired off a letter to Young’s legal team which included a copy of the exorbitant check Young wrote to herself. The letter accuses Young of “blatant and unjustifiable criminal embezzlement of corporate funds,” as well as a breach of her fiduciary duties.
But Young’s lawyer Bryan Freedman reportedly believes it’s all a publicity stunt to take the spotlight off Dre who was recently accused of hiding assets from his soon-to-be ex.
“This is just a low-grade PR stunt by Andre [Dre] and his team to try to change the fact that he was caught red-handed and sued for trying to cheat Nicole out of community property to which she is entitled,” he said. “There is no question that Nicole had both the contractual and the legal right to have taken this action and Andre’s team is well aware of this fact. Any suggestion she did something untoward is preposterous and pathetic.”

A lot of these rapper’s wives are basic. Tellin us those fairytales of dime pieces..
I get you… but think of what you just said. Basic doesn’t rob you but the dime pieces cost of maintenance, scheduled and unscheduled, does.
A gold diggers hero. smh
PURE EVIL
Never Get Married. Damn…Dre’s bank account just became Aftermath…Smh. Bet he’ll think twice before he ever gets married again. His ex wife is doing him dirty…but then again… maybe this is her revenge for the Beats By Dre. Who Really Knows What Goes On Behind Closed Doors?
She took 350K from a billion dollar marriage? That’s decimation? LOL. Hilarious. Remember kids, systematic racism exists. It doesn’t explain how a kid from Compton is now worth 1 billion dollars, but hey! Reality is inconvenient in 2020.
You can’t just take from a co owned LLC. What about that don’t you understand, dolt
Are you that dense??? This wasn’t a joint personal account. It’s a business account for a recording studio. Funds in the account typically cover expenses of running a recording studio. When 1 of the owner draws a check over 300k it’s likely not for business purposes. They’re at was over his finances so she’s pulling money from any account she has access to. And a billion dollar valuation on Dre’s businesses doesn’t mean a billion dollar marriage. He’ll barely have a fraction of that in personal accounts. It’s all tied up in Beats by Dre’s valuation after they sold it to apple. That kid from Compton happened to be a brilliant, savant level engineer, which is exactly what Jimmy Iovine was when he started his music career way back when producing legendary rock classics. Jimmy recognized his work ethic and his ear for music, so they’ve been partnered ever since. He built it up by living in a recording studio the last 35 years.
She don’t even look like she worth anything ! All that money, at least fix your face. DO US ALL A FAVOR.
Like you’ll ever be in her presence …
Her personality seems to match that shitty dog face of hers
christ when you have a girlfriend or wife and you love her, try and keep her! appreciate having a woman around. but of course when there is a divorce nobody is happy so both of you get what you can.
you know its often lopsided, right? That its the man’s empire and the girl was fucking him right for one or two days a week so she feels she deserves half. You sound like a simp, why is she entitled to $2m a month?
She remind me of ol girl from Casino with this one.
Exactly, she is a gold digger, women who do this are disgusting
He was engaged to Michelle’ for 7 years. Then let his current wife move Michelle’ out of their home and throw out all she owned. To marry her…. What is it they say about karma?
Looking at half a “Billion” is hardly karma …
Why do rappers even get married? SMFH
