Dr. Dre's achievements producing his own album and hits from Eminem, Snoop Dogg and Xzibit may have crowned him the King of Rap in 2000, but the hip-hop impresario has no interest in working with fellow musical royalty Michael Jackson.

Dre told MTV Radio at the American Music Awards on Monday that he turned down an opportunity to produce the King of Pop's first album in a decade.

"Somebody approached me about working with Michael Jackson, and I did say no because I like working with new artists or people that I've worked with in the past," Dre said. "I can develop them from the ground up. There's no set standard that I have to live up to or anything like that. All I have to do is go in the studio, and basically they're going to bust their ass to come in there and do their thing the way it's supposed to be done." Jackson's spokesperson confirmed there have been discussions between the two artists, but said nothing has been decided.

Dre said he recently wrapped production on Eve's forthcoming album, Scorpion, and is now working with R&B newcomer Shari Watson, a.k.a. Truth Hurts, who is signed to his Aftermath label. Fellow Los Angeles rapper Ice-T also recently told L.A.'s Daily News that Dre will work on his next record.

Dre leads the pack of contenders for the 43rd Annual Grammy Awards with five nominations, including Best Hip-Hop Album for Dr. Dre 2001 (see "Dr. Dre, Beyoncé Lead Grammy Nominees").

well Swine Flu, and Jackson just died. I think the criteria for both as been met. BRING ON THE ALBUM!!!. Also stop getting all butt hurt over what Dr. Dre did, You know for a fucking fact that if jackson was alive, your bitch ass would be saying something like "Yeah, I wouldn't want to produce for someone who goes out side every 10 minutes to play with my nephews either" or something.

Dre's point looks very reasonable to me, what isn't reasonable is the title of the topic.

In reality, i do not think Dr Dre would have done anything "better", he may have provided a "new" beat here and there but no way would he and could he have met the standards of MJ beats like Quincy Jones.

It's best that Dr Dre has declined to work with MJ. Dr Dre is an Artist but he alone can not move boundaries to a wider audience like MJ - MJ can, NO MATTER who he works with...........Dr Dre should consider himself lucky to be asked but his decision is the correct one...
