4 part documentary series about Dr. Dre and Jimmy Iovine on HBO right now.



Just finished watching, it's really good if you're into music history. One thing I think weird is in the doc, Jimmy claims to be Italian but on the internet, he's listed as Jewish.

Explanations:
1) the Internet is wrong
2) he's a self-hating Jew
3) he's an Italian Jew

Tony Curtis and Sidney Poitier did it better imo.





*Tony was Jewish. Not sure about Sidney (but I have my doubts)

People from Italy can't be Jewish?
Not that, I was thinking cuz the entertainment industry is pretty much ran by the Jewish and has the negative reputation maybe he didn't want to reveal his Jew side and only pushed his Italian side.

I was just watching a YouTube interview of Donnie Wahlberg and he was saying that Dr. Dre and Snoop signed with Iovine because of him. It was pretty interesting.
