Heated NWA Interview After Ice-Cube Left (Dr Dre & Eazy-E)

Sun, 23 Nov 2025 13:48:25 +0000

Digitally restored and remastered from the original broadcast, this rare N.W.A. press conference captures the group at the height of their controversy - unapologetic, defiant, and unfiltered. Speaking to UK journalists, Eazy-E, Dr. Dre, MC Ren, and DJ Yella confront accusations about gang affiliation, censorship, and the FBI’s alleged investigation into Ruthless Records.

With trademark bluntness, they dismiss media narratives about “gangster rap,” challenge questions about misogyny and street violence, and defend their right to tell the truth about life in Compton — raw and unedited.

🎤 Highlights include:
- N.W.A. on being dropped by Sony and building Ruthless Records independently
- Their response to FBI scrutiny and “drug money” rumours
- Why they reject comparisons to Public Enemy
- Eazy-E on street smarts vs. book smarts
