Dre said he “didn’t know it was that serious” at the time. What he did remember was the constant check-ins and treatments he received during recovery.Dr. Dre, rap artist and producer turned music mogul, was considered to be in stable condition after undergoing testing at Cedars-Sinai in Los Angeles Tuesday.
“So I’m in the ICU for two weeks,” “The Next Episode” rapper said. “Because of what was going on in my brain, they had to wake me up every hour on the hour for two weeks to do these tests. Basically looking like sobriety tests, like touch your nose, rub your heel on your calf and all that s—.” Dre reasserted that he “never felt like I was in trouble” and was really looking forward to going home during that period because he was hungry since he “didn’t eat for two weeks.”
