Hip hop legend Dr Dre is set to release the first single from his long-awaited – and long-overdue – new album, Detox.

Dre says 'Under Pressure', featuring Jay-Z, should be out "in the next two weeks or so".

"I'm definitely gonna be putting the album out this year, finally," he told CNBC. "I think everyone is gonna be happy with it."

His last album, 2001, came out in 1999. He kept busy in the 2000s with production work, most notably for Eminem, and recording Detox, which originally had a release date set for 2004.

It will be only Dre's third solo release in the 19 years since NWA split.
