Furthering the milestone, Interscope has announced that beginning on June 1st, they will be releasing ‘The Chronic Masters’, which is described as “a slow-burn series of limited edition releases honoring the timeless legacy of this classic“.  Beginning on June 1st at 12pm PST, ‘The Chronic Masters’ will feature exclusive drops throughout the year that pay homage to the legendary work of Dr. Dre.
