i know that Dre won producer of the year in 2000 or 2001, i also think he got a grammy for best producer from the early 90´s.

Winning Boot Camp shows on tv, that's like a full time job ;)

He retired after disappointing sales, as far as I know. He's probably selling shoes now, or else sleeping under a bridge.
