Under [ his alias, Eazy-E, he started a record comapny, -Ruthless Records-, with help of money that he had collected as a small thief and drug-dealer, and created the gangsta-rap, 2 part of hip hop that had millions of head lines world wide. 31 years old, he died, only 2 months after that he fund out that he had AIDS. He was born in Compton in a middje-class family in 1963, he lost his grip in the teenages and became a criminal, the life as a small gangsta didn’t have the plans for the future that Eazy-E were dreaming of, :so- -after cbiniléatéd the’ school, he started in the music buisnes. Together with Ice-Cube, Dr.Dre, MC Ren and DJ Yella, he 1986 putted together one of the most controversial rap-group ever, N.W.A (Niggaz With Attitudes). When their "Boyz n' the Hood" started to conquer the lists in USA, they putted Compton and Los Angeles on the rap-map. With fat bases and heavy funk, Boyz n' the Hood soon became the national-song of hip hop. Everybody that were living in the so called “projects" suddenly had something that was their, a song with lyrics that showed the hard reallity that got‘the "white America" to tripp. That was just the begining. With N.W.A, Ruhtless Records got a dream start and 1989 the album Straight outta Compton, that was a real classic were out. The fans selebrated. With soungs like Fuck the Police and Gangsta, Gangsta made the FBI and the LAPD to shake teeth and the politicans started to show interests in hip hop but not in a positive way. The gangsta rap also splitted into two camps betwen those who thought N.W.A just descrined things as they were and those who thought that hip-hop had a responsibilty to take and no encurige and glorify that violence that was about to strangle the Latin Americans and the black people. In the middle of that Eazy saw how his life work was falling apart. Ice-Cube left first, then to be followed by Dr.Dre that started Deth Row Records together with Suge Knight, with artists like Snoop Doggy Dogg, Tha Dogg Pound samong others. It was hard for Eazy-E when Dr. Dre left Ruthless Recotds.-Dr. Dre were the inventor of the West Coast sound and Eazy, that actually didn't do so much on the records suddenly became a second-part-figure on the rap-stage. Plus that the old members sue each other, and if that wasn't enough, they came out with solo albums were they didn’t back for anything just to diss eachother, Eazy-E eaven publicat pictures of Dr. Dre in eye-liner and lipstick on his second solo album, It's on (Dr.Dre) 187um Killa 1993. Eaven dogh it wasn't easy, Eazy-E continiude on his way, hard-headed he stuck to his visions and his gangsta mentality. His records wasn't sellin’ as ars, 7 ALL INFORMATION SIBIED Oct 18 1996 HERE 18 Uh eetoce AOL | PL 08:49 AM Qy Ore. AS elrteres Sore
