GARLAND (CBSDFW.COM) – A 23-year-old rapper from Garland caught the ear of Dr. Dre, who signed him earlier this year.

Justin Morhle aka "Justus" moved to California at the behest of Dr. Dre, a legend in his own right. The rap producer has produced albums for and overseen the careers of many rappers, including Snoop Dogg, Eminem, Xzibit, 50 Cent, The Game, and Kendrick Lamar.

Morhle will rap on three tracks on Dr. Dre's newest album set to release exclusively on Apple Music Friday, August 7, 2015.
