Dr. Dre and Jimmy Iovine, the chairman of Interscope/Geffen/A&M Records, are suing a Delaware company over claims that they were supposed to "manufacture, market and distribute a line of headphones" to be called "Beats by Dr. Dre."

The lawsuit, filed in Los Angeles County Superior Court and obtained by TMZ.com, alleges that SLS International, Pentgram Design, Inc., Jibe Audio and Steve Lamar "failed and refused to perform under the contract" and went forward with a plan to sell the "Beats" headphones through a separate company.

Iovine and Dre are seeking damages of "at least $1,000,000" and an injunction that prevents the companies from manufacturing and selling headphones using the "Beats" trademark and design.

Dre's a bitch for not helping out DPG and 213
What do they need Dre's help for?
DPG:
Daz - rapper/producer
Kurupt - rapper
Snoop - rapper
213:
Snoop - rapper
Warren G - rapper/producer
Nate Dogg - hooks

Snoop has sold millions of records
Dogg Pound had a double platinum debut album, and both have had respectable solo careers
Warren G had a solid platinum debut album
Nate Dogg was one of the most popular hook singers, with a laundry list of memorable guest appearances (Ain't No Fun, All Bout U, Skandalouz, Game Don't Wait Remix, Lay Low, Hey Y'all, Oh No, tons more)

Although it would be beneficial, they don't need Dre's help. It's on them to be successes on their own.
