Marcel’s Parents and Siblings: Everything You Need to Know About His Family
Marcel is the son of Dr. Dre and Michel’le Toussaint, an R&B artist. His Grammy-winning father is the co-founder of Death Row Records and the pioneer of West Coast gangsta rap. He also sold Apple $3 billion worth of Beats By Dre headphones. Marcel’s mother is an R&B singer and songwriter from the United States who is known for songs such as No More Lies, Nicety, and It Always Hurts.
Since working together in the World Class Wreckin’ Cru, his parents began dating in 1987. Their relationship deteriorated after his birth, and they divorced in 1996. Even after their divorce, Marcel and his family have a strong bond. In February 2015, his mother, Michel’le, posted a photo of him and his father, Dr. Dre. She also expressed appreciation to her fans for their curiosity in learning more about her son Marcel.
Later that year, his mother married Suge Knight, the co-founder of Death Row Records. On November 28, 2002, they welcomed their daughter Bailei into the world. Her relationship with him lasted eight years, but she later divorced Suge Knight. Suge was accused of assaulting her.
Since May 1996, his father has been married to Nicole Young. Truth and Truly are Marcel’s stepmother Nicole’s children.
Except for Curtis and Andre, who are his older half-siblings. Curtis, his eldest child, is pursuing a career as a rapper under the stage name Hood Surgeon. Andre Young, his younger brother, died of a drug overdose at the age of 20 in 2008.
His Parents’ Abusive Relationship; Film Feature
Michel’le proceeded to publicly accuse Dr. Dre of sexually assaulting her. He reportedly fractured her nose and ribs, according to her. In a March 2015 interview with VladTV, she announced that he had even fired a shot at her. She clarified,
“We partied…and I’m not sure what I used to do. It couldn’t have been just me, I still think. So one night when we were arguing, he went to get the gun, and I barely made it through the bathroom door before he shot me and missed.”
With such violence and injury all around him, Michel’le decided that separation was the best choice. The other side of the story, on the other hand, is quite a contrast. Dr. Dre and his lawyer argued that the whole abuse story was fabricated by Michell to gain attention for her film Surviving Compton: Dre, Michel’le & Suge, which premiered on October 15, 2016. Only Marcel’s words may establish the reality of the incident, but he was a child when the alleged incidents occurred.

The net worth of someone who hasn’t disclosed much about his or her profession or work is difficult to calculate.
