Reported range $950M – $1.1B

Aftermath Entertainment
Beats Electronics (Apple sale)
Gin & Juice by Dre and Snoop

Dr. Dre's reported billionaire status rests heavily on Beats Electronics, the headphone and audio company he co-founded and sold to Apple in 2014 for more than $3 billion, plus his Aftermath Entertainment record label and decades of production and catalog income as a rapper and producer. Forbes also notes his 2024 launch of 'Gin & Juice by Dre and Snoop,' a ready-to-drink alcohol brand with Snoop Dogg, as a newer venture.

Forbes does not itemize precisely how much of the $1B total traces to the decade-old Beats sale versus more recent income.
