--------
In this clip, DJ Yella recounted Dr. Dre telling him about the Beats deal years before it was finalized and described what his initial reaction was to Dre becoming hip-hop's first billionaire. He also discussed getting a paltry offer for his role as a consultant for the Straight Outta Compton film.
Imagine telling a founding member of the group that your movie is based on that you don't need them. Hollywood can really be a joke a lot of times.
crazy
A fucken joke
But what they did to Arabian Prince was beyond messed up
@@svityy what did they do ?
@@jaiharvey520 he wasnt in the movie
Yella is obviously at a happy and drama-free place in life. Seems like a good guy with a good heart.
F🤬kk an MC Ren, Dr Dre….and Yella!
Yea Becoming a porn producer/director will do that to you
He's here because he broke .
@@DYLWhk this is so true, he knows....he messed up his whole career. He was not close with all those dudes. N.W.A. has been up over 30 years!
Was just thinking the same thing..., how any dudes would honestly say "He wanted it more than I did", instead of saying "he got lucky and I didn't". Much respect to this dude! Like the Uncle you talk to at the Barbeque, then break him a a $20 spot just out of repsect.
Respect to Yella wife man, She really held it down for him when he was at his lowest. Thats whats its all about, Im glad yo see you bacc on your feet Yella💯
Yes we got to big up that queen!
Rich or poor, his wife wouldn't be with him if he wasn't DJ Yella. 🙏🏾
@@MrShaheedone Stop simpin! 🙏🏾
@@blackjesus6433 where you see simp fam? His name can't hold that bank up his name ain't keep his crib...she rode it out..big up to her... Stop acting like a sucka...big up a queen not these BBL hos you probably on ninja
Well she probably never had to do anything when he was rich I don't get how these people go broke in the first place that why you should always buy out right and through cridit
Dude is still so humble….is what ppl not understanding ….friendships is what ppl forget about …poor or rich …
He's to soft bro ..lack of ambition and a lot of other things wrong with this dude
@first last he wasn't a MC.
@@wayofthegun6224 exactly. I hope he wakes up and goes out and get his. Needs to be shaken out of his slumber.
For those that are saying he's fell off and he wasn't a rapper etc. Over time you'll realize the fame etc is unimportant having a decent bank account and not all of the glory and glamour just is unimportant. Fcking Rick Rubin makes dumb ass money and is content with walking around barefoot and wearing khaki shorts and tees.
He's not necessarily humble, he's just slow-mentally. A man with a 10 y.o mind.
Very humble guy. The world needs more people like Yella.
Young Men, this a example of a real man. Take responsibility for his own actions, stay out of people business, and don't let his situation define who he is
Ong
I agree 1000 percent 👍🏽
Why do these dudes keep doin these interviews and lettin him belittle them like that
@@HollowNoFacewell it’s this or dancing with the stars
Don’t forget he had to get saved and found god way before this
It's crazy how Yella was cut out of a movie that was partly based off him. He was there from the beginning. No reason not to make sure he was taken care of financially. And he was the only member that went to Easy's funeral and dedicated a whole album in his memory.
Fr. It’s the same as history books serving a prescribed version of what happened. About to put on “2 Hard MF’ers” in his honor. He’ll always have respect amongst the real heads.
He wasn’t cut out the movie weirdo
@@lordjoyous not his character I meant him in real life. They literally told him they didn't need him. Did you even watch the interview? Weirdo🤣🤣🤣
Well ice cube wanted his last memory to be happy ppl grieve in different ways
I find it so puzzling that certain people with wealth can be so cold and selfish in helping out friends or people in need. It's like they're blinded and become less human, heartless. I would get a complete stranger off their knees if I had that kind of income, I'm humbled to give whatever I can when I can.
If you gonna do some dirt, Yella is the guy to do it with.
That's y I hang wit Ole heads
Faacts 💪🏾💪🏾
You right.. Cause he don't know nothing!!!😂😂
I'm 29 as I'm getting older im really starting to appreciate humility at an older age.. Hearing how yella lost it all and made some of it back. It's reassuring. Just gotta survive bullets and cancer.
Yella was probably the most humble member of NWA. I can definitely respect that.
Man this whole interview Vlad talks over Yella, steers the conversation not by asking questions but by making leading declarations waiting for Yella to fill in the blanks. Then if Yella doesn’t say what he wants to hear he try’s to redirect the narrative with “well actually”. Like when Yella begins voicing his opinion on Dr. Dre being the greatest ever.
Let the man talk Vlad, jesus.
Lol I know right
@@loyaltoj567 Shut up
Typical Vlad interview
Annoying
But Im still here tho
Sad! Yella is one of the true friends that hang in there all the way didn’t take no side from his homies! I bet if something was to happen to Yella I could see Ice cube and Dre talk about how much Yella meant to them!
Hell nate couldn't even afford his hospital bills when he got sick
@@javonahhenderson3048 Woww
Not really they could of sorted him out if was well off I would never mind a multi millionaire I'd buy the a house or give them one of mine if it was one of my close friends

The way they punk eazy in that movie was way outta pocket 😂
@@professionalamateur1549 fr so many lies
Facts,at least Ren and Yella Boy were portrayed in the movie Arabian Prince didn't exist.
Most humble guy ever. Salute homie. From Illinois.
Blessing and a curse,obviously
hes humble cuz he never did shit
@@juanshaftpatel7488 🤡
Hollywood is crazy when they say we don’t need you and their making money off of telling your story. That’s some audacity.
Yells ain't being honest. He wasn't chasing money. He was chasing Poon. "Fuck that Ass and count that Cash"
He’s so chill, he seems like he could fit in with anybody
You sound like you wanna take it there with him 🤔
Sounds mixy
That's why he could direct all that porn and never have any allegations against him .
@@gc4479 how??? Or r u thinking that
I keep gaining more and more respect for Yella as the years go on.
DJ Yella produced a dope album tribute dedicated to Eazy-E and he also produced For the Love of Money for Yomo and Maulky, which went on to become Foe the Love of $/Moe Cheese by Bone Thugs N Harmony. Yella been keeping it real.
This man is drama free. He admitted his mistakes in his handling of his fortune (losing). He takes the punches and keeps it pushing.
You can't buy the amount of loyalty that this man has
Yella: the most under appreciated member of the group. Co produced the nwa albums and was the only one to show up to the funeral....damn
i want to see an MC Ren interview.
He already did 1
@@rgtowns why not?
Bruh fr
Ren declined
Ren was so lyrical ...underated
Yella part of hip hop history since the beginning. We used to break on lino to this cat in the early 80's.. ICON 👈
What Yella said at the end, is where it at! If more people followed that pattern, the world would be better place!
I pray for more success in the future for Yella then he had in the past. This man is humble and real.
Clad loves hearing himself talk so much, he doesn’t even care what yella has to say about Dre being the best. Sounded like he was about to disagree. But no clad hadda get his words out
I kinda would've liked to see what he was going to say at the point also
@@gdc6153 he probably would've said jam master jay
Yeah, Glad loves beating people up with loaded questions about their peers' supposed success.
Exactly. Overtalking the guest.
@@dotmarceo do it bad I’d tell him you gone let me talk ,I have be like boosie overtalk me ima hit the weed mane
Vlad swear the reason he do these interviews is cuz it’s important to document these people or whatever but majority of the interview be Vlad talkin unless it’s a MOB guy he’s afraid of. You go back and watch some of these after the ppl pass and realize it’s just Vlad talkin.

Didn’t you get destroyed by upchurch, glad to see you back on the net
Blade let's Flav, Eddie Griffin, Dallas Austin all speak
Yea he does always cut people off to get his word in. Kind of rude.
I met him in Eastvale, CA at my sons opening day for his soccer league. I asked him for a pic. Took the picture and told him I was a fan of his work. He's a nice person.
Cube and Dre always wanted to talk shit about their money with Eazy, but it seems like THEY were the greedy ones. They disrespected Ren and Yella with not involving them more in the movie, and by barely paying them. You know damn well if Eazy was still alive, he wouldnt have stood for that.
@@rgtowns yella said he blew all his cash bought 50 cars . He is to blame
@@cuttinupthecarpet504 it wasn't that much money bro ..if easy cared he would I've gave his friends points and royalties bro ..damn near everyone envoled with easy e had to file law suits to get a little bit of money u dude praise easy to much but easy had that White man stealing from his friends to make both of them rich ..then he hands the company over to some chick that don't even look out for his kids ..
@@wayofthegun6224 Eazy didn't HAVE Heller do shit, Eazy was getting burned too. He knew everyone at that time was going to burn them, wasn't no one giving them a distribution deal and their own label at the time. He knew he would eventually have to work all their deals over, this was to get them started. It's not like they were getting paid peanuts, they just thought they deserved more like they all did, including Eazy. Eazy put the money up, he should get the biggest return.
Shit sad... it's always the people with money doin fucked up shit... this movie was about nwa not just cube and dre
Uhhhh I think that was Universal's movie, not Cube or Dre
Money changes everything and everyone. Especially the ones that have it. I remember seeing NWA coming out of the Sav-On Surplus in Hawthorne CA, the one that use to be on Hawthorne Blvd. across from the Hawthorne Mall. They were so full of energy and unity.
Damn E worked hard while he was alive to give his kids everything he never had. Then when he died, his kids didn't get to reap any of those benefits. That's cold as an iceberg man.
Only his kids with tomica benefit from his success. She evil and greedy.
@@MJJSmoothCriminal the fact they say he was on his death bed when they got married bruh shit crazy and lame
@@MJJSmoothCriminal honestly I would have taken her out if I was one of his kids
@@Stonecoldalston Facts how is that possible anyway like for my understanding don’t the the next kin get something including the kids?
@@jasbourne94 if the mothers of the children pursue to sue the estate. Bob Marley and Russell Jones aka ODB children's mothers tied up their estates for a time until their children received a equitable share of the money involved. Like Tomica Wright ODB children's mother Icilene Jones aka CDB (cold dirty bytch) was a greedy gretchen witch hag. It would appear a lot of Eazy's children mothers just didn't want the hassle.
Dre and Cube dont even have to give him money just give him a job on the team to make his own paper
I think billionaire Dr Dre and ice cube has something dark behind this whole N.W.A business,it's so shady with eazy e and then yella not getting S***
You mean to tell me there so smart that they put together quality albums and movies but they didn't think to give yella a job??
I still like there music but I totally lost respect for Dre and cube after hearing "we really don't need him" lol such a cool ass dude yella is but that's what happens when your friends turn into greedy cooperate
a$$holes
For real yo
@@spellbinder7036 just for clarification, Yella clearly said, "Tomeka" said we don't need you. Tomeka Wright is the broad who married Eazy on his death bed, and stole all the money and the business. If I'm not mistaken, she had controlling interest in the movie because NWA and Straight Outta Compton and the music is owned by Ruthless.
He didn't say Cube or Dre did him like that. In another video he said Dre bought him a car and helped get him back on his feet. Cube don't owe Yella shit, Cube was a kid at the time and did 1 album with him over 30 years ago where all Yella did was help mix a few records.
@@lukekhalid896 exactly
@MC NEMESIS x2
Every topic, Yella has the same response. "He said something but we didn't talk about it and I was like 'okay.'"
Cuz hes on this channel . If there was something to say yella ain't gon say nothing on a huge platform . He keep his business to himself . Which is the smart thing to do .
I still listen to Souls of Mischief 😂.

I love how honest this man is. A real man.

He doesn’t care, I think he made that clear
Some people just won’t help you man, I’ve learned that. He’s ok with that and understands it, reason why he’s at peace now.
Honestly he seems the happiest of all the members.
God bless DJ Yella that last Eazy album was dope. You a friend that a nigha a ride for.
Hes a nice guy and i'm sure he is a great friend, but his laid back attitude got him where he is..
Yep he seems loopy also
That’s sad truth. To really get paid, you have to lean in. Music world, corporate world… you will get ripped off and underpaid if you don’t know your worth and really go for it.
@@4LP3E you think Yella slow?
@@scooblov Says more about that world than Yella if anything.
No one cares about you, people will jerk you around and rip you off.
Hard truth, but I think you're right. Seems like a go along, get along kind of guy. Dre, Eazy and Cube were clearly the go-getters, and didn't just "settle" for the bare minimum. Fans won't want to hear this, but those Hollywood execs were correct: Yella wasn't needed to front the movie. Straight Outta Compton is clearly Cube and Dre's version of the NWA story.
Much Respect To DJ Yella. They ain’t do him right for this. Wish all the best 💯✊🏾
Yella the truth he always stayed humble in he ain't jealous of no one we need more guys like him 💯
Damn Dre and Cube couldn’t negotiate a bigger check for their mans? Smh
It's obvious Dre & cube don't give af about nobody they just in it for the money they already sold out. That's why the movie was bs!!

Lmfaoooo 100%
Well they left so many important people off the movie that they’re probably right in telling him they didn’t need him. They left off Arabian Prince, Krayzie D, Donovan Smith, and Stan the Guitar Man. All those guys were important members of the production team of NWA.
@President Joe Biden check the production credits in the NWA albums.
Realistically in a 2 hour movie they can’t mention everyone
@@K-Boogie7999 come on , they even included their wives in the movie.
He's right. Shouldve been a netflix series.
@@dariog36th exactly
One thing I like about art of dialogue interviews is he lets the guest talk an doesn't talk over them
*Facts
Great interview. Always love Vlad’s interview with DJ Yella. It is sad how he was homeless just a year and a half ago . There is no way a member of one of the most famous groups in hip hop history, should ever be homeless. I know Nwa group members didn’t really have a contract and I am not sure if they are subject to any royalties, but it is sickening that he was in that position. I believe Easy E’s wife is head of his estate therefore subject to all royalties, probably publishing, and masters . I know if this is true and she’s not even covering Lil Easy E’s health insurance, there is no way she is doing anything for Yella or anyone else . Dre is a certified billionaire and Cube is obviously very successful, why would they know one of their brothers is struggling and not help him . It is crazy . I understand they probably didn’t know the full extent to how bad he was struggling but they probably knew . I understand it is not their job to uphold another full grown man , but a brother should never be left out there . They probably didn’t know I will give them the benefit of the doubt. Dre’s own daughter was homeless and I can’t believe he actually was unaware of that , so he probably knew about Yella . It is sad .
Dre should just have cut him 500k out of loyalty. Yela actually taught dre how to produce
Yeah I mean wtf,when you don't have the greed spirit in you this stuff sounds crazy,that man has 1 billion dollars, you can't break ya man's off?that really speaks to the caliber of person he is smfh

If you ran into dude on the street you’d never imagine he was runnin with NWA back in the day lol.
Crazy how he’s almost homeless and his so called friends Dre & Cube are millionaires BIG millionaires. Yella seems like a solid ass friend etc shits crazy
I don’t know you and I don’t want to make any assumptions, but, you will find, that in this life, “friends”, “so-called friends” and even family, no matter what they may have, will rarely help you. Especially when you are down and out. When it comes to money, most people, not all people, but most people, do not share and they do not care. They may say they do, they may even act like they care, but, when the chips are down and it’s time to “put up or shut up”, most people will Shut Up. I think, I don’t know for sure, but, I think it’s because we’ve been conditioned to believe that it’s Every man/woman, for themselves. So, on this journey called “Life”, if you ever come across a person who puts their money where their mouth is”, remember to Always Respect and Cherish that person, because they are the exception to the rule. They are special, they are not the rule. We human beings are mostly selfish and greedy. People would rather you take their wife, than to take their money. I wish I were wrong, but, I’m a 56 year old man who has had to learn that lesson the hard way. Stay safe and always rely on yourself and you will never be disappointed. Take care.
@@charlesbarboza8591 *NOTHING BUT TRUTH RIGHT THERE!!* Thank you for dropping that on him because it needs to be said. I know a girl right now that someone should have told that too, when I said it she would not listen. She lost her Father, needed money for the funeral and this dude she was dealing with kicked up $700 for her. Then he was "distant" cause he works a lot. So after a few weeks she cut dude off. Huge mistake, cause these days Men don't just do stuff like that. People that will *put up when the chips are down are super rare* and she told him on a lengthy Facebook post "money ain't everything etc.." This woman is my own Family, I felt horrible for dude it was an incredibly dumb move.
@@charlesbarboza8591 yep i was homeless for 2 years, my mom tried to have me arrested, none of my family ever tried calling me or helping me not once , but its all good though i worked warehouse jobs and did uber for the rental car and slept in it and eventually got out of that situation and still took care of my kid, but yeah what you say is true no one gives a fuck about a struggling man, I women who struggle and all kinds of peopls donate and help them but the man gets shitting on all day
@@charlesbarboza8591 knowledge 💣🔥
@@Misterj23946 actually, I’m Really Happy for You. When your “chips were down”, you found out that You were enough and the fact that you were able to “care foe your kid”, that’s Amazing. Too few “men” take on the responsibility of any children they may have helped produce. I understand that’s sometimes women make it difficult to develop a strong bond with your child because they use the kid as a pawn. That sucks. The point here is, when a man takes responsibility for himself, and treats himself with respect, chances are that he will also be willing to treat other relationships with respect. As far as the woman in your family who’s judgement seems less than solid, she will have to learn the hard way. That doesn’t mean disown her, but it does mean don’t let her play those same manipulative games with you. I’ve found it necessary to guard myself from certain types of men & women, who’s outlook on life is basically, “What’s mine is mine and what’s Yours is mine”. I don’t think so, 😂🤣. Take care.
Eazy e was rude to Yella and Yella still speaks nicely about him he is definitely a better person then most

The dude that played dj yella he did a damn good job he was funny.
Poor Yella... great guy, if not the most motivated or (certainly) opportunistic. He deserves more from Dre especially.
Ice Cube jr spent 2 years in film school (acting/writing) and he auditioned. It wasn’t given to him.
Part of the reason Suge drove on the movie set was because he was being portrayed w/o pay.
They left out a lot of people from the movie. If I’m not mistaken it was supposed to be an Ice Cube bio that turned into NWA. Because he couldn’t tell his story w/o them. Cube said himself that the storyline could’ve gone multiple directions.
Tomika wrong to say that to Yella. He definitely should be getting royalties both movie & music.
“N.W.A is in full affect, yo yella boy, kick me that funky ass beat”
God bless you Yella it's great that you're humble and keep your head up nothing but love for you Brother
Give Eazy E his credit for Dr.Dre success

Absolutely well spoken 👏 🙌 👍
Ironically, Yella and Alonzo’s characters were my favorite in that movie
The $$$ for the NWA movie was for Dre and Cube. Yet Cube was in the group for only one d@mn album. Noty even the best NWA album. Yella, Ren, and Dre were in the group for 2 albums and an EP. Ren and Yella shouldve had bigger roles and gotten paid more.

Yella said that when He went homeless after Dre left NWA, Eazy took care of him and his family. Yella went homeless again after E died and Dre and Cube never spoke to him for 10 years....
Ya cuz Dre is a piece of shyte. Cube too
This can't be true because Yella was doing fine for over a decade after Eazy died. He only started having problems about 10 years ago.
Real question is why wasn't he able to manage his money how did he go homeless so many times

Dre and Cube have been shitty human beings in the rap game. They took to heart the way Eazy handled business, yet Dre and Cube stole beats, ideas, hooks from other people in their groups and labels. Dre stole credit for beats he didn't even create. Dre and Cube took credit for lyrics they didn't write. Every artist cube had under his label, Cube stole from them, burned bridges and made enemies along the way..I respect Yella for always being a stand up, loyal man.. on their own, Dre and Cube ain't shit. They need other people on their team pulling the weight and doing the hard work, then Dre and Cube slap their name on it and take credit for it.
@@BOFLI but Dre and Cube had a say so in things. They got paid hefty $$ for their part
@@amsequeira2282 I remember Suge did say folks would send their demos in. Dre would redo them and Ice Cube would redo the lyrics. That’s the song. And then came Jimmy Iovine
Daz had a falling out with Dre over production on the chronic and Doggystyle. Daz did more than half the beats. but once the album came out, Dre got the credit and was paid more than the actual producer he stole from. Dre and Cube stole publishing rights from their artists. If you notice, every artist, except for WC, has had major falling outs with cube. Once you dig deep, you find out how shady cube is. Yet both these fools had hard criticism for Eazy. Yet they far worse to more people.
When he said Dre and Bone Thugs i seen dj yella kinda make a face lmao. DRE DIDNT HAVE ANY INVOLVEMENT OR INFLUENCE IN BONE THUGS
Dre has a daughter who lives out of her car, I believe she said that haven’t spoken in over 10 yrs , I think that tells u a little something about how Dre treats ppl in general,

He’s respectfully and friendships and free of jealousy even though he was essentially homeless at some point. I enjoy listening to his stories and the way he approaches conversation.

What he means is they didn't need him to sign off to make the movie.
Not to mention that Yella & Ren parts weren’t big anyway.
@@crazyjim9380 no, what they meant by that is they didn’t need him to be a consultant for the film.
Well hela wasn't in the movie they didn't need em for anything he jus was ther to put his input in , but they already knew wat to say and stuff from other stories
As a fan of NWA from the beginning, I thought the movie was garbage...Eazy 's kids, Yella, Arabian prince should have benefited from the movie too..only 3 greedy individuals made lots of money from the movie....Dre, Cube, Tomika..
It was definitely a good movie and very entertaining. It just wasn’t historically accurate. Which was stupid. They really tried to make it seem like Eazy went broke and was selling weed smh. Whole time he was getting a piece of everything Dre touched at death row. The fact the dr Dre even let those lies be put out to the masses says a lot about him
It breaks my heart that they didn't include him in making the movie he was the founder of it him and Eazy-e I guess that's what Hollywood does to a soul.
Either this guy is passion aggressive or just at peace in life 🤷🏿♂️😂😂😂
I’m just gonna sit this here

@@BirminghamAlexander lmao bruh
Vlad was trying his hardest to get yella to tell him how much the check was lol
Probably about $ 25,000 Ice cube, Dr Dre and Tamika Woods Wright or definitely wrong for that.
@@jaym.1106 alot less then that . Try 5k
Yup
I wanted to know to shit. Lol
Def 10k or under. Prob around 5k and that's cuz they was "looking out" for him.
I knew off top we never talked about it was coming from Yella LoL
Vladi: Dj yella how did you get in the group
Dj yella: I don’t know we never talk about it
Vlad loves trying to over talked someone
Vlad blessed us with a 8 min video
Someone needs to do a mix of Yella all the times he says I don't know and I don't wanna know.
Vlad needs to interview Hopsin. A lot of people don’t know, but he was signed to Ruthless Records before he blew up.
Really humble guy always see him taking pictures and doing autographs at the Pomona L.A. county Fair where N.W.A. had one of there 1st big concerts
If you pay attention to Vlad he is low key clowning these people when they fall off, especially bringing up how much better off their old friends are
💯 and it ain't even low key anymore.
That’s f*ck up
if you pay attention people in his comments stay complaining while simultaneously watching every video. lmaooo
He’s not really clowning them, he’s just talking to them about their story. If they would’ve still had money, he would’ve been asking about their business ventures and how they managed to stay rich
Vlad is asking the questions we want answered. It just doesn’t help that he usually do sus shit but he cares bout the culture.

That’s what happens when u write n produce all the music!!
U get the bag 💰
Respect to Yella...
DJ Yella is a classic example of a good guy that is virtually invisible to everyone. He seems to be a genuinely good guy, but he is not super wealthy or famous. I bet Dre and Ice Cube have forgotten about him more or less. He's been reduced to a footnote in NWA history, which in my view is wrong.
The most loyal one out of the group, had Eazy of lived I assure you no way in HELL Yella would of ever been homeless in the first place
Whole notha level of respect for yells now. God will bless you bro
Yella was on the team from the beginning. It’s sad to hear he was homeless and that they cheated him on that check. To really get paid, you have to lean in. Music world, corporate world… you will get ripped off and underpaid if you don’t know your worth and really go for it.
Yella was not an important piece, he just helped carry the equipment.
@@gc4479 they used his image on albums, he must of been doing something, and he said Dre ask him to come work with him so...
@@dirkdavenport9777 yeah that was in 87
@@gc4479 naw,Dre ask him to come with him more recently then that he spoke about in a earlier part of this interview, smh run dmc treated runny ray better than this,and he wasn't working in the studio, if you have 1 billion dollar and you ain't break ya man's off you a piece of s_it!period point blank!
@@dirkdavenport9777 Yella might be lying! 🤔
Sad how people use people up when they don't speak up or stand up for themselves. You can most definitely stand up for yourself without being disrespectful. My God too much manipulation from these shady characters in the music and entertainment industry.
If Eazy was alive Yella would’ve been taken care of.
Lol Dre don't even take care of his kids like bro the fuck you need a billion dollars to yourself for lol he probably tripping his ex-wife is getting a piece of the pie
Easy didn't take care of them when he was alive! Contract was between him and Jerry...period! Cube got smart and left!
Part of the Hip Hop Legacy..... Nah.. WE DONT NEED YOU. Disrespectful and Slayed. God got you Yella!
The movie was BS for so many reasons.
I really would rather have had something like Jackson 5 or The Temptions mini series.
He'll, the New Edition and Bobby Brown movies that freaking BET(of all medias...)did were better done. No one was made out to look better than they were and perfect and had the members involved.
BET movies for Brown and NE were high quality movies. Way better than that bs All Eyez On Me and Straight Outta Compton
@@dianevrules irish Becky
I enjoyed it
It saddens me to think of Yella as Homeless while Dr Dre was worth a half of Billion, and Cube worth millions! Smh, what type of friends would allow that? Then again, maybe they didn’t know. But they did him dirty with the Movie. They could’ve gotten him at least a Million dollar check after the success of the film🤷🏽♂️ this is so crazy!
Furthermore, how they did Lil Eazy was F’d up too. Cube son got coached to play him. They could’ve gotten young E coached and make him prove hisself by losing the weight to play his dad which could’ve helped the family overall. Maybe he would’ve been sharper than the actor that played E, “Not taking anything away from him” But Dre and Cube swore up and down they loved Eazy, what better way to pay homage than to help the son get the Role and change his life financially?? Maybe i’m thinking to deep
Lil Easy should've had some kind of role in a movie about his dad!
I heard the movie people said he needed to lose weight for the role and he didn’t take it serious at all
Yellas production on 187 dr. Dre was hard af.
