The classic LP will arrive on all streaming platforms on April 20.
Dr. Dre‘s debut album ‘The Chronic’ is finally coming to streaming services.
The record will become widely available online through Entertainment One. Fans will be able to listen on Spotify, Tidal, Apple Music and other major services from April 20.
“Fans now have another reason to celebrate on what has become a national holiday, celebrating all things cannabis-related – where legally allowed and in moderation of course,” said Chris Taylor of Entertainment One in a statement.
Originally released in 1992 through Death Row Records, the 16-track collection helped redefine West Coast rap with singles like 'Nuthin’ but a ‘G’ Thang', 'F*ck wit Dre Day', and 'Let Me Ride'.
The Chronic was also recently among the 25 “aural treasures worthy of preservation because of their cultural, historical and aesthetic importance” that made up the US's Library of Congress’ 2020 class of inductees into the National Recording Registry.
