3. The Mentor: Dr Dre. The Protégé: Eminem.
Eminem's life changed forever when Jimmy Lovine played Dre his demo and Dr. Dre responded: "Find him. Now." What happened next is a thing of legend also known as the triple platinum 'The Slim Shady LP.' Eminem also pays homage to Dr Dre on his 'I Need A Doctor' verse, rapping: "All I know is you came to me when I was at my lowest. You picked me up, breathed new life in me, I owe my life to you."
