The American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers said on Tuesday that Dr. Dre will receive the first-ever ASCAP Hip-Hop Icon Award.

"Dr. Dre's groundbreaking early work laid a foundation for hip-hop as we know it today," Paul Williams, chairman of the board and president at ASCAP. "As a champion for some of today's biggest artists and a successful entrepreneur, he changed the culture around hip-hop."

DJ Kid Capri and DJ Drama will provide music for Thursday's event, which will celebrate 50 years of hip-hop.
