We have to admit that a part of us was very disappointed when the movie “Straight Outta Compton” became a hit. Why? Because we’ve had a bone to pick with NWA since their beginning. They were a group of ignorant thugs who got lucky in the music business. They had no respect for anyone- especially women. Misogynistic Dr Dre was convicted on multiple cases of violence against women, including the brutalization, on a nightclub ladies room floor, of female journalist Dee Barnes. Not only did the despicable Dre punch and beat women, his lyrics depicted them as “bitches and hos.” Since Dre executive produced “Straight Outta Compton” he made sure these episodes were NOT included in the movie. Dre prefers the reputation of a reformed gangster with heart. It couldn’t be further from the truth.

The man’s a thug. A lucky, violent thug that made money.
Yuk!
Gross, awful. Thugs making lots of money only reinforces their thug brains, attitudes, behavior, and actions.
I saw SOC this week and had not idea about Dre’s history until i started seeing views such as this online this week. I’m horribly disappointed and should have known better. Not only were these facts left out, but they made him out to be the most ethical, least greedy and overall nice one of the bunch. unbelievable.
This is the American dream, street level thugs being exploited for cash by middle aged White Men who act as ‘management.’ Just ask Diddy or Jayzee.
its still time for a public excuse, dre.
More praise of ghetto rapper lifestyle which makes a few rich off the misery of others. Call out this trash for what it is. Call out the Ghetto Rapper Culture.
