Dr. Dre, Beats Release Expensive, Special Ed ‘Detox’ Flavored Headphone
Retailing at $599 is there any chance you’re coppin?
When Dr. Dre, Monster Cable and Jimmy Iovine first sat around a table to discuss the product branding of a unique set of high end headphones they could have never imagined the success that has surrounded the Beats by Dr. Dre family of products. What the probably didn’t know at the time was that the headphones wouldn’t just transform how we listen to music, in fact they probably didn’t instead they became part of Urban cultural fashion.
So now the once exclusive headphones aren’t as unique because everyone has a pair and in fact, its even being bootlegged. So what do you do when that happens? Well you release a much more expensive pair. Peep the limited edition Detox flavored Beats. While we still don’t have the slightest clue when the album will drop you can show your allegiance with this pricey set of phones retailing for a lofty $599.95. But at least you won’t look like everyone else in the hood. Individuality has its price.

$600 for some headphones! Dre maybe the the G.O.A.T. in the booth, but if these headphones aint making me the next man to the Motherfucking man in the booth. Then HELL NO!!
LOl. I guarantee I will see at least 3 people with these. And those same 3 people will be a paycheck away from eviction, a pinkslip away from poverty, and a meal away from starvation.
.
But they will also be a pair of headphones closer to FRESHNESS!!!!
.
Its a damn shame….
May he should drop DETOX before the headphones SMH
Headphones always break…trust me…I don’t think they’re worth the $
Headphones r headphones 2 me I know they may have a clear sound like u r in the studio or listening 2 the made up fake, fable, cd called Detox but paying 6 benjeez,hell No!! I wouldn’t spend 6 benjeez on shit unless it has a roof,door,walls,electricity,running water etc even a 600 hundred a month car payment is 2 much.As 4 Dr.Dre and his new hustle pushing electronics gear it’s cool and all and I am sure he will come out with Cell Phones By Dre real soon with a crystal clear sound when u talk on the phone.With a Nuth’n but a G thang ring tone.I’m not holding my breath no more on this detox cd it’s obivious he is scared or not n2 it.I guess when I need a Doctor, I will have 2 call Dr.Suess or Dr.Pepper instead of Dr.Dre.
