He told Britain's NME magazine: "There's a deeper meaning to the T-shirts. We're massive fans of Dre and would like to work with him so we thought we'd try to get him into everything we do."Geffen, our American label, have just told us they've sent our first record 'Myths of the Near Future' to him, so we'll see what happens."We're thinking of getting him in as executive producer. There is a clarity to his records, they sound slick without sounding cheesy or too smooth."Dre - real name André Young - has produced hits for a host of rap stars, including Snoop Dogg, Busta Ryhmes, Eminem and 50 Cent.
