Hip-Hop Rumors: Did The Apple / Beats Deal Get Killed?

OH NO!!!!

This can’t be life! There is a big reason that the deal with Apple and Beats didn’t go through. The Apple Team freaked out when the Instagram video came of Dr. Dre and Tyrese bragging about the $3.2 billion business acquisition. Now, when I first reported on this a few weeks ago, I was chastised by unnamed forces not affiliated with AllHipHop so, I’m just going to say “I told y’all so.” But, since we’re closer to Hip-Hop and Black people more than the LA Times, we get a call. But, the LA Times is now reporting the same thing I said already. Basically, Apple is/was angered by the leak. As you should know, Apple is always top secret with their business. The deal still isn’t done. Nobody quite knows if it will, but I think it will. Once they get their emotions out of it, I think they will realize they want Beats in their stable.

Hopefully, Dr. Dre still gets that big check. If not, he’ll still be worth about $500 million. Hey…
