Dr. Dre is on the verge of becoming the rap world's first billionaire.
The music mogul all but confirmed Friday that Apple was buying Beats Electronics, the company he co-owns that makes the good doctor's wildly popular Beats by Dr. Dre headphones, for $3.2 billion.
'First billionaire in hip-hop, right here on the motherf-----g West Coast,' Dre is heard saying in a NSFW video that appeared on R&B singer Tyrese Gibson's Facebook page.
The deal with the iPhone-maker would make the 49-year-old co-founder of Death Row Records hip hop's wealthiest roller.

Forbes calculated that after capital gains taxes, the deal would actually leave Dre about $200 million shy of being a billionaire. And his new net worth of around $800 million would not be enough to land him a spot on the Forbes 400.
But it would catapult Dre's worth ahead of Puff Daddy, who currently tops the magazine's rap-to-riches list with a net worth of $700 Forbes calculated that after capital gains taxes, the deal would actually leave Dre about $200 million shy of being a billionaire.
