Dr. Dre attended the ribbon-cutting ceremony for the new Compton High School campus, which received a makeover totaling over $200 million. The campus features new classrooms, a new football stadium, and a large library. Additionally, it features a performing arts center with Dre’s name after he donated $10 million to help fund it.

The new 31-acre campus for the nearly 120-year-old school will serve more than 1,800 students and feature a 140,639-square-foot academic building, a 36,534-square-foot gymnasium, a half-size Olympic pool and enhanced landscaping with California native plants, officials said. Most attendees will be low-income students.

“The new Compton High School and Performing Arts Center is a world-class educational facility that is poised to become the center for innovation and creativity, bringing this life, this thing that we dreamed about, to a reality for all the students in this city,” Dr. Dre told ABC News. “Compton is a breeding ground for talent. I’m standing here as literal proof that coming from Compton, that there is nothing that can stop me and everything and anything is possible.”
