Apple acquires Beats Electronic

Jimmy Lovine and Dr. Dre, the co founders of Beats Electronics, will also be working for Apple.

The sale of Beats Electronics was rumored to be in jeopardy because of a video of Tyrese Gibson and Dr. Dre celebrating the sale of Beats Electronics before the official sale. Apple was said to be furious over the video. It seemed as if the sale was going to be called off but Apple couldn't say no to Beats. Beats Electronic headphones dominate the market and they also have a music service that can compete with Spotify. Apple had to overlook the video and do what was best for their company and their future.

The sale of Beats Electronics will likely put Dr. Dre in the billion bracket. He will be the first rapper to become a millionaire. A few years ago, that wasn't even possible.
