When Apple Music debuts on Tuesday, June 30th it will do so with an exclusive from one of the minds behind it: The Chronic, the 1992 West Coast hip-hop classic by Beats co-founder and now Apple employee Dr. Dre.

Sources in position to know tell BuzzFeed News that the album, which has never been available on any music streaming service -- including Dre's own Beats Music -- will join Taylor Swift's 1989 as an Apple Music streaming exclusive tomorrow morning. Apple confirmed the arrangement to BuzzFeed News, but declined further comment.

Apple Music is expected to launch around 8AM PT Tuesday morning alongside iOS 8.4, the latest version of Apple's mobile operating system.
