Filmed and edited by Luie C. of Collective State TV for White Label Radio and 93.5 KDAY.
Paul did a great job playing Jerry tbh
Unless you know Jerry and have spent a portion of your life with him, your statement makes zero sense. You have no way of knowing. With all due respect to Paul as an actor.
goku solo
@@paulcooper1046Paul did a great job playing Jerry honestly
Respect to these people for giving Jerry a chance to say his side of the story. RIP
Straight up. The movie really shit on Jerry. Nobody would be where they are without him, and they go an disrespect him in the movie, just out of spite.
Right Coast Yeah but he also stole a lot of fucking money from them
U can tell jerry had much love for eazy no matter what any one says
Dang are sexy!
Facts
yeah but saying he waas the only one while ice cube wrote all the lyrics including F the police...
No he didn’t u would neva screw sb u love for money
of course, he made him a lot of money..
It looks like Easy E's death has allowed his enemies to diminish his status in music history. Pretty sad.
Yep
I’ll never forget that diss track they came out with(Real muthafkn Gz)
Tells you all to need to know.
He was never a villain. Everyone knows that. He wasn't a perfect man, but damn, how do you not respect him? The man was a rich producer and recognized this talent from Eazy and this group and took him under his wing, helped them produce albums that made millions. He saw something in them that 99% of producers would have run away from. He didn't need the money. I'm sorry folks, this was a good man, whether you believe the lies of others or not.
who are we kidding this old fart was nothing before he met those 5 young brothas from compton!!! even with the famous people he so called managed he didn't have any real money!!! he outta be thanking ice cube for putting his name in a song!! those five young black men was the highlight of his managing career period!!!!!
+Shahid Muslim you do realize that he brought Elton John here who has sold 250 million albums? & he managed Pink Floyd during Dark Side of the Moon which sold 25 million alone? They also have another album in the top 20 sellers of all time.
NWA has sold about 10 million so at best they were his 3rd biggest act by GIGANTIC margin.
+Great Lakes (Huey/Fred/Malcolm) I won't say that the record industry isn't shady but Eazy-E & Jerry where both likely taking too much.
Ohre. Who r I kidding dre and cube wrote those songs. Eazy was taking credit for something that wasn't even his songs
Ogre its all business malpractice not reading contract terms
On DJvlad Lil Eazy said that auditioned for the film to play Eazy and was called back 2 or 3 times, and they told them that they just needed a more experienced actor to play the most important role in the movie. No disrespect to Lil Eazy or E at all.
Actually they said he was too fat to play E's role. Lil eazy said he would'nt go on a diet for a movie so he did'nt get the part..They were'nt looking for experience or else O'Shea (Ice cube's son) would'nt have got in either
Ice Cube's son got to be in it because his rich white washed daddy was a producer for the film. Duh, coach's son stereotype logic. They made EazyE look dumb as hell and his son wouldn't allow that.
It was actually about the guy said above
He just can't act
And to top it all
Could you play out your dad's death?
Because i sure as hell could not
How did they make it seem like cube and dre started ruthless? I don't remember them doing that
They did. In the beginning Dre tells Eazy to start a label. That wasn't true at all. NWA had an offer to sign for Island Records and everyone wanted to except Eazy. He said he wants to own his own label with NWA signed to it.
Maybe not so much that but the movie made those 2 goofy mfers look like superheroes
Love this kind guy so much. Listening to him speak is great because he's so wise. RIp Jerry❤
I kinda feel a little something for the old guy! I hope everyone can forget and forgive.
Mom The Ebayer why ? he played Dre cube and basically the entirety of nwa
flight 93 on sep 11th 2001 black box to the missle oh I mean plane is a sample from an Eazy-E song, No Body Move.
@Jacob Jackson Not from EZ
He was sick in that time, u can clearly see dat. RIP
Sigh….let’s clear up some misconceptions about Eazy shall we?
Myth #1: Eazy E and Jerry Heller Stole Money from Artists
Contrary to popular belief, Jerry Heller held an established reputation as a music manager, boasting a résumé of industry heavyweights including Marvin Gaye, Ike & Tina Turner, Otis Redding, Black Sabbeth and Van Morrison during the 60s and 70s. Dr. Dre was the first future N.W.A member that Heller came to know, as he managed him during his stint in “The World Class Wreckin’ Crew.”
The hands of fate intervened, blending every ingredient to yield a cultural revolution on March 3rd 1987, the day Heller met Eazy E and Ruthless Records was born during their meeting at Macola Records in which the hit song “Boyz N the Hood” reached the seasoned manager’s ears for the first time, reinvigorating his passion for the music business. Apparently fate has a sense of humor as well. Who would have thought that a newly divorced, crass aging man from Clevland and a short, stalky Compton native with a mean left hook and sharp business acumen could get along so well?
The future Ruthless Empire had a diamond in the ruff on its hands, but still required financial backing. Some sources say Eazy contributed $7,000 of his money, made from drug dealing and Heller footed $250,000 of the cost, making up the defecit.
Originally, Eazy wanted to co-own Ruthless with Jerry 50/50, however, Heller insisted that Eazy be the sole owner, taking 80% while Heller profited from a 20% stake in the company’s earnings.
Jerry and Eazy became close, forming a paternal bond were they challenged and taught each other, professionally and personally. They also spent time together on vacations, shared family events, milestones and recreational activities. Jerry was the mentor Eazy needed while Eazy was the son Jerry always wanted. However, their relationship later began to rub people the wrong way.
“Ruthless was Eazy-E’s company. So not only did we live next to each other and have keys to each other’s houses, we always discussed every major decision.” ~Jerry Heller
Ice Cube and Dr. Dre exited N.W.A following suspicions of financial impropriety.
Ice Cube proclaimed that he wasn’t paid royalties or for going on tour, portaying himself as the groups main writer and mastermind behind Eazy- Duz-It. Cube also alleged that a $75,000 check was being withheld from him by Jerry Heller, who demanded that he sign his contract first.
“Eazy took advantage of me not knowing the record business back in the day,” Dre chimed in, also expressing distain for Heller, painting him as a serpent who maneuvered his way into a position of power and isolated Eazy from his friends.
Heller and Eazy recounted a more nuanced version of events.
Heller noted that Cube’s writing responsibilities and credits were shared with MC Ren, D.O.C, and at the groups’ earliest stage, Arabian Prince, while Dre and DJ Yella co-produced as a team, thus, the royalties had to be divided multiple ways.
“The deal was structured so that Ruthless got a little off the top, and the band split the rest equally. So they split $375,000 five ways, which is $75,000 apiece. That was an astronomical amount of money, and everybody signed their contracts except for Ice Cube. He had a good lawyer, Lee Young, Jr., who used to be the head of business affairs at Motown and a guy that I have done business with over the years and his parents were well educated. Ruthless also had lawyers that looked over everything”
Cube received $32,700 in royalties in addition to the $75,000 he wanted, totaling an initial $107,700 in cash. In the years since, all group members have accrued millions in royalties from album sales, preformances and re-releases.
Heller explained that delays between album sales and artist payouts are common.
David Kronemyer, a longtime record company executive who worked with Ruthless, seconded this assertion. “It takes a long time and most artists never recoup. Ice Cube did, in fact, recoup in this situation, it just took a long time.”
To insure that his finances were secure, Ice Cube also enlisted various law firms to inspect the books at Ruthless Records, yet nothing suspect ever appeared in their findings.
Conversley, Dre signed his contract (apparently without reading it by his own admission) and later became a disgruntled employee, lamenting the fact that he was supposedly only making 0.02 to 0.10 cents per unit sold.
Eazy took the opportunity to set the record straight concerning his business dealings and thirteen year friendship with Dre, who’s departure and subsequent Judas Kiss hit closer to home.
“I was too nice to everybody, I overpaid everybody. I gave people money that they weren’t even owed. I made them happy. I might say okay Dre, here goes $75,000.” He’d say “For what?” and I’d say “Just for being here, cause you're down and you're my buddy.”
“I moved him from Compton and bought a house in Westlake Village. When I moved Dre moved. Dre got a house around the corner from me. I got him a house and we worked everything out”
“ If Jerry was * me out of money do you think he’d still be here?” Eazy said bluntly in an interview by Sheena Lester.
“Why aren’t they suing Jerry if he did all this ****?”
“I treated everybody one-hundred-precent fair and square. I’ll put their * contracts in your magazine.”
“When we had a meeting and somebody (Ice Cube) sat down and said, I never got this, I never got that. They said all this in front of lawyers. You know what I did? I pulled out all the * returned checks that this person signed and said here’s where all that ** came from. They said, Oh, I didn’t know I was getting all that. There’s that $75,000 I told you about in the beginning, why aren’t they suing me?” (Taken from an unknown magazine article on the Tumgir fansite)
His final recorded conversation with publicist Phyllis Pollack sheds more light on the situation.
“There may be those that hate you, but when you hate them you destroy yourself.” Says Eazy, when questioned about envy being the reason for the backlash against him.
“What sort of misconceptions are out there as far as how you treat your artists?” Pollack inquired.
“I treat my artists real good, I give them fair deals. I start them off at 12 points, with escelation at every 500,000. In the publishing a 50-50 split. Most people take 100% of the artists’ publishing. I know a lot of people who have sold 4 million records and ain’t even seen a million dollars. That ain’t no record deal. Now, I’m not trying to give out any big advances because that’s recoupable, that’s your own money. If you take a big advance you’ll have to pay that back if you don’t sell enough units.”
Heller revealed that Dre made roughly $82,000 in 1992, though it is unknown how much money he obtained over his four year employment. It is likely that he was compensated well, being that his Calabasas mansion was fashioned with granite counter tops, state of the art technology and custom furniture hand-picked by the producer’s then girlfriend Michel’le. He was also known to throw lavish all-night parties and spend recklessly, particularly on luxury cars like Ferrari’s and BMWs, one of which was an exact model of Eazy E’s.
Heller, in his memoir Ruthless, recalled that he tried to sweeten the deal for Dre by attempting to create a sublabel for him through Warner that, he said, would have paid Dre a $2 million advance. The deal ultimately never came to fruition as Dre infamously became estranged from Eazy by soliciting Suge Knight’s strong arming tactics to break free from his contract, transforming the Starsky and Hutch duo into Cain and Abel. These nefarious activities ultimately backfired, as he was found to be in breach of contract. Eazy gained the last laugh by making 20% of everything Dre touched as an artist and producer for six years.
Excerpt: The Hip Hop World Owes Eazy an Apology (Medium Article)
In addition, Jerry took out a second mortgage on his home to fund the group’s first tour while E bailed Dre out of jail and paid for his drunk car accidents. He was a better friend to Dre than Dre was to him.
“I had to itemize everything. I couldn’t let a $30 beeper charge go by. Jerry was not stealing from Eazy E. People can say whatever they want, I was there”
~Gary Ballen (Employee of Ruthless Records)
nigga wrote 9 paraghrahs 🤣i aint reading that
Skim it then or read it incrementally. 🙄
Summary: Neither Eazy nor Jerry stole from anyone.
About your point regarding Ice Cube "portraying" himself as NWA's main writer, he was demonstrabley the main writer who conceptualized the lyrics. The predominant quantity of the lyrics was written by him, evident by the reoccurring verses, for instance F the police and Straight out of Compton bare many similarities. That was his style. Also, you're what many would call a culture vulture.
true. i came here to strictly hear it from Heller himself about his take on the movie.
Jerry heller was a good man. The only producer that will actually call you back if you contacted him.
I feel bad for the guy RIP
He dead?
Avaision wait what’s rip mean then cause I’m talkn bout rest in peace
C Villagrana he died in 2016
This man is and was in the business to make money and he did! he put NWA on the map and should get props! KEEP RACE OUT OF IT!!!!!
+bostonsirish1 he cheated those guys out of money and every one knows it.
bostonsirish1 No one ever said they don't .
+brinatai bre no... they cheated themselves out of money.
+brinatai bre how did he cheat him out of money? he fooled them. they signed papers. why sign something that you really don't know.
the whole record industry is shady but it ain't a race thing. Ask TLC about the contract they had from Babyface & LA Reid & wifey Pebbles. Jerry was important but he likely had his hand the jar. We really don't know & how much either
Jerry said all the right things for his lawsuit
I respect the man for making N.W.A business grow but i just dont respect him for not paying icecube
Contracts a contract. He knew what he was signing, it’s that simple.
Most labels are like that, if not all. Hello, Pdiddy and Biggie? Dr.e and Eve? I can go in and on with this man.
It’s one of the main reasons why nowadays majority peeps don’t sign onto music label companies anymore.
Can’t be mad later when you’re trying to go solo and want most of your moneys worth. Ain’t happening, unless you got your own shit. Simple.
Without jerry there's now Ruthless and no NWA because enzyme would of been finished before he started ...god bless jerry
Whatever
Good interview....
Truth is money over everything with Jerry and his ancestors!
R.I.P. ERIC.
ROCKIN that raised on rap t!!!
Famous family!
Yes, you will cry, if you will lose millions if dollars. Some people have committed suicide, because of money.
nwa is a savage movie
Darious Gaona Not the name of the movie
Yeah bro and Tupac and Biggie were shitty movies.
Darious Gaona there's no nwa movie
Darious Gaona was fake as shit the doc wasnt even mentioned it was just dre and cubes story is all
Rip Jerry Heller
Eazy-E was the man
I believe that some pieces of straight outta compton movie were added on As a warning to unknown people .
Even ray charles and stevie wonder could see what's going on and their both blind .
Read his book many years before this movie. Great book, learned a lot.
Movies aren't documentaries though. It's why it's hard to bring lawsuits against filmmakers for portrayals.
Jerry - "My book is 100% true" *bullshit*
NWA minus eazy e set up jerry heller mob style damn .
Easy Es son did audition. It was an open case so you can even see the interview of him saying he auditioned, he just didn’t get the part.
Look at the 28 show he said that they just didn't want to give him the part so part of it is true and part of it is not
easys son was able to go try out for the movie.
Dude is such a scam artist, and the old lady in the back was SO annoying, I couldn’t finish this
He loved EZ, that was his mistake...I guess cube deserves more love.
bro you know that the movie isnt bullshit
Darious Gaona Hes dead
Darious Gaona No one knows what happened when at the time Eazy fired Heller. So how in tha fuck u gonna say it's real. Or however you look at it.
Turn the music off so we can hear
may his soul Rest In Peace !
I don't believe a damn word he says
Interesting Interview.
Wow why did the movie come out before your book
Whatever the truth is, Easy took to his grave
If I’m lying, may God strike me down, the truth is there for all to see and witness, South America people speck Spanish why you why, countries in Africa speck French, blacks in America speck English why. As I said make me into a lier
I believe him 🤷🏾♀️
Why don’t y’all talk about how he help come up the Chicano rap game??
Don't forget this old guy took all these kids from Compton who were clearly talented, But new nothing about business he was taking advantage of them not giving them the money they earned until they signed and all that which was ridiculous he was trickster every piece of meat he offers has a hook in it
the took a risk on these kids. Know about the business, he took a chance because who knew they'd be as big as they got. Nobody does. Every first artist gets a shitty deal, The Temptations did.
Kanye knows
Jerry is a beast
All I can comment is that ...People always start with great intentions to make great things but evil feelings come into it when money, fame, greed, ECT... start growing in people's hearts and minds...they only thing I do not agree with this guy is why show up to watch a movie with your lawyers? Why go as he said frame by frame ? To me seem he was trying to find something to base his lawsuit and lawsuits are mostly about money...so he is getting mad about been protraid as a man that was after money but the first thing he does is look for a way to get money....No one takes credit away from him for his contribution but I would believe him more if he were to say he knew he was not perfect and their could have been some misunderstandings
I gotta side with Jerry on this one. I didn’t appreciate how they portrayed some parts
I love how the people that have seen the movie are suddenly experts of NWA and Jerry Heller. Nobody knows if NWA was screwed over or outta money except them. It was a movie that depicted Jerry in the worst possible light. Maybe they thought he was stealing money from them but again, WE WEREN'T THERE SO WE DONT KNOW!!!!!!
But we have interviews, archives and financial records.
Sigh….let’s clear up some misconceptions about Eazy shall we?

Y’all do know Ice cube didn’t know about eazy e firing Jerry people told him😭
Wow he got really sick looking fast compared to the last time he was in the studio.
They probably poised him to.
They all have their own truths, their own way of interpreting what they felt was happening at the time. Financial paperwork is the only truth that can be taken as tangible.
There is only the truth.
Stop making excuses for people whom you don’t nj now and open your eyes to evil ass mfs.
If not, you’ll be blind to when that sht find you
What a wierd voice D'X
12 year olds in the comment section acting like Jerry Heller was a god
That was definitely a movie that Dre and Cube want you to believe. They did the same thing to Michel'le. Watch her movie and see the real truth.
"Surviving Compton" ua-cam.com/video/e_c7GZOO-qk/v-deo.html
Heller was a master lier. There's things that he says that are 100% untrue. That he an Eazy started Ruthless records and that Dre was with the World Class wrecking Crew. It was Dr. Dre's plan to get Heller on board in the first place (because Dre knew Heller through the World Class Wrecking Crew) and according to Lonzo from the World Class Wrecking Crew that Dre bugged him everyday for a month or two before Lonzo contacted Heller and made the meet up happen. And according to Lonzo, Heller was very mixed and had his doubts but proceeded forward. And NWA had already written and recorded songs before Heller was in the pciture, so he's completely full of shit! Why would he lie about that... it's so easily provable to be false? In his interviews he always says a handful of things that are almost certainly untrue, but it's amazing how much conviction he has when he's telling a lie.
It had to b something tho cause if they was getting paid y would I leave if I'm getting paid what I suppose to.get paid that don't make no sesnse
Damn Devil
wtf👎👎👎 Jerry heller a thief. i guess this haters don't understand.
Believability.
The kids in school I played basketball with only talked about Easy. Never named the other members. I wasn't a big rap guy then. Pickec NwA up in High School. Only Easy when the shit was droppin
They would do good without him
N.W.A put the blame on jerry heller for killing eazy e because they were trying to kill him too .
He isn't a bad guy yeah maybe he robbed ruthless records but eazy e and everyone in nwa was still famous and got rich.
They could’ve got any other manager and had the same out come their shit was dope it wasn’t bc of the Jew that broke up their crew
