With Straight Outta Compton slated to premiere in theaters just a couple weeks from today, the cast is pushing the promo into full gear, with their latest appearance being on the cover of The Hollywood Reporter. “Maybe [Knight] was looking for trouble”.
This is a little surprising, since Shady technically has no official affiliation with the group, but he’s obviously worked very closely with Dr. Dre, and he is featured on the soundtrack. “And now, it’s just like, ‘OK, we understand.’ This movie will keep shining a light on the problem, especially because of all the situations that are happening in Ferguson and here in Los Angeles”. His former music associates still don’t quite know what to make of the situation. “That’s the great thing about being in this country, is to be able to speak your mind and not be censored”.
An N.W.A. reunion occurred last month when Dre, Ice Cube, MC Ren and DJ Yella performed together at the BET Experience in Los Angeles. “We don’t have anything settled yet with everyone’s schedules,” said Universal Pictures chairman Donna Langley.
Fast forward a decade, and a skinny white kid from Detroit named Eminem held the banner for rebellious rap, mentored, by no coincidence, by one of the founding fathers of N.W.A., Dr. Dre.
Dr Dre tells The Hollywood Reporter he was on the set when Knight arrived, but had left when the scuffle broke out.
