Dr. Dre is being sued for millions in a “Beats By Dre” shady deal. Dre and partner Jimmy Iovine are being accused of fraud by the inventors of the technology behind Beats By Dre headphones. Noel Lee, CEO of audio tech company Monster, which co-designed the original Beats By Dr. Dre, says that Dr. Dre (Andre Young) and Iovine committed fraud in navigating the headphones away from Lee and Monster. Had Lee retained his original 5 percent interest in Beats, his total stake in the Beats-Apple deal would have been worth more than $100 million. Apple, Dre and Jimmy Iovine had no comment.
