LOS ANGELES (CelebrityAccess) — Iconic hip hop artist Dr. Dre announced that he plans to donate all of the royalties from his forthcoming album "Compton: A Soundtrack" to support the construction of new new performance arts center in the Los Angeles neighborhood.

Dre revealed his philanthropic plans during an interview on Zane Lowe's Beats 1 Radio show. Dre's new album, his third, and he says final studio project, will be released on Apple Music on August 7th.
