Did you know?
An NWA song came up in a Genius playlist this morning, which prompted me to look them up on Wikipedia. The Eazy-E page had these two amazing quotes:
Disputes about money caused the group to break up. It was thought that Eazy-E and Jerry Heller were stealing money from the group. Ice Cube is believed to have left N.W.A for this reason, which he later referenced in his diss song, “No Vaseline”.
Haven’t heard the song, but I think I get the gist. I guess he was pretty upset.
This gem surprised me too:
Eazy-E accepted an invitation to a lunch benefiting the Republican Senatorial Inner Circle, hosted by then-President George H. W. Bush in March 1991. A spokesman for the rapper claimed that Eazy-E supported Bush for overseeing Operation Desert Storm.
