Dr. Dre hasn't been involved in making music for years, yet he has become one of the most successful members of the music industry. His headphone brand, Beats By Dre has become the largest brand of headphones in the world and in selling Beats to Apple he earned close to $500 million from the deal, as reported by Forbes. As a ubiquitous figure in the music industry it isn't surprising to see him become an icon for all. Now an enterprising artist has taken the likeness of the former NWA member and added his face to a dreidel for Hanukkah, naming it the Dr. Dreidel.
Like Beats headphones, the dreidel comes in a nicely presented box with the Beats By Dre logo splashed across the wooden sides. Just as the first night of Hanukkah kicks off, a pun-heavy dreidel will put anybody in good spirits about the festival of light. As the creator, Hannah Rothstein, had to say about putting this together, "Sometimes, the best concepts are the ones with no complex reasoning behind them. Like the Dr. Dreidel. Created for its sheer hilarity and the love of puns, this laser-etched, wooden dreidel brings together two unlikely cohorts: the Jewish holiday of Hanukkah and rap music."
The dreidel does not appear to be for sale, as it would almost surely cost a fortune to get the license to sell the likeness for the richest musician in the world.
Check out pictures for the four sides of the Dreidel below and head to the Dreidel website to see the Dr. Dre inspired ruled for dreidel. Have a very happy Hanukkah and holiday season everyone!
