On Sunday (February 13), Dr. Dre showed off his piano skills during his instantly iconic performance at Super Bowl LVI, leaving many people impressed by his talent on the keys. One fan who appreciated Dre’s piano performance was The Roots’ Questlove, who claimed he didn't even know he could play the instrument.
The N.W.A legend stepped up to the grand piano to play some notes from Tupac’s “I Ain’t Mad at Cha” before getting into his classic “Still D.R.E.” Legendary producer, Scott Storch, originally laid down the chords on the classic single, but Dre proved he could hold his own on the keys.
Questlove took to Twitter on Monday (February 14) to admit he missed Eminem taking the knee because of how surprised he was about Dr. Dre playing the piano.
“Imma be real real honest,” he said. “I was so shocked Dr. Dre knew his way around a piano—I totally missed Em kneeling.”
When a fan pointed out Eminem was kneeling before Dre started playing the piano, he replied, “Lol, I guess I kept my eye on Dre. Gotta be the producer in me.”
