Ghostwriter Rico Love explains how relationship with Dre was developed

Diddy’s "Hello, Good Morning" hitmaker also explained how he developed a working relationship with the Doc.

"I had a relationship with [Interscope Records Chairman] Jimmy Iovine and I’ve been knowing him for a few years now and I was on his radar a few years ago," Rico added. "With success, when you start getting successful, it’s kinda like, this industry is like a big high school. I feel like I’m a part of that sophomore class, one of the kids that’s playing varsity and I got a little popularity. So I got the call, met up in the studio, did a few songs and after that, we just kept [in touch]. He reached out to me and sometimes it’s not always a direct connect, but somebody hears your name so much after doing so many successful things that they get interested."

Dre hires top ghostwriter to complete Detox

It looks like Dr Dre is trying to finish his upcoming "Detox" album as he promised fans recently he soon would. Multiple sites are reporting that Dre hired ghostwriter slash collaborator Rico Love to help with the project. During a recent interview, Rico Love taked about "Detox" and his reaction after he was hired to hep with it.
 
"Yeah, I'm working on a few records with him on Detox," Rico revealed. "We got in last week in LA and we're gonna be doing some more in the near future but I will tell you this. He played me some stuff that I was bugging over, I was like, 'This album is ready to go right now! You don't even need me here!'" Everybody [who has heard the album] is saying the same thing because it's all true. Dre has some music that you would be like, 'Why don't you just put this out?' But like [I've] said, we can't get into the brains of these guys. They believe their music should have a certain standard beyond what other artists are thinking."
