Ex-N.W.A. Manager Jerry Heller — Eazy-E DISRESPECTED In Biopic | TMZ
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UQnrfNdVX0Q
All that Jerry Heller wants, is just respect for Eazy-E. I really hope that Dre at least respects that, not make a whole movie about making himself like some idol.
He didn’t respect easy e enough to to be fair with him when it came to money tho
MetalPcAngel he did
MetalPcAngel didn’t work out that way then
I didn’t know Stan Lee was the manager of NWA.
😂😂😂😂
☢ ᴅᴠᴅ ᴘʟᴀʏᴀ ☣ I’m from the future he dies in 2018
F
Rip Stan lee
GAMEBOIMARCUS he do look like him
Jerry Heller is still around damn.
Eazy-ECPT. Com
Eazy e nvr gets enough credit, when he made west coast, not 2pac
I agree completely
Everyone knows Westside had the Best Rappers, for me the best rapper is Tupac the guy had over 700 songs written by hisself Eazy e was rapping already in the end of 80s but most of his songs were not written by him most of them were written by Ice Cube.
yup i love tupac but he realy from the east coast he was more like a west coast pioneer
Jesus loves you❤️
And on top of that pac isn’t originally from the west coast he’s from the Bronx ny I’m sorry but eazy should get all the credit for the west Coast
im a fan of ice cube and dr dre and am definitely excited for this biopic. that being said, i do believe that that was pretty poor decision making of ice cube as a producer to completely shut out eazy’s son and jerry heller. and this is not the first time theres been a complaint of not including people in eazy’s circle.
I understand that ice cube had a falling out with heller and that theres bad blood, but as a producer and businessman, its really your job to not let emotions and personal issues get in the way of doing something as important as a biopic film feature.
whether he likes heller or not, both heller and eazy were very big parts of the nwa history and a big part of the story. completely shutting them out, not even including them in the film making process, and not letting eazy’s own flesh and blood so much as even audition is pretty petty and disappointing coming from a man of ice cubes stature.
thats pretty childish, and he should realize the huge opportunity he has here, this biopic is major history in the making, and he’s letting his personal grudges get in the way of making a non biased and non one sided project.
of course im excited to see the movie and will buy tickets immediately. i saw the australain trailer and was blown away. but being a fan of ice cube or any celebrity shouldn’t give you a license to be blindly biased and not be critical when they do something thats not right
+hiphopdisciple555 Lil Eazy’s looks much taller than Eazy-E tho.
+King Sis thank you
+eletric .lady What do you mean Eazy’s family has nothing to do with it? Eazy’s widow is one of the producers of the movie. So get your facts straight. And as for Jerry Heller, that man destroyed the group by short changing Cube & Dre.
+blachubear
Eazy’s widow has ran Ruthless records down the toilet. None of his children or immediate family were involved.
+hiphopdisciple555 http://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/lil-eazy-e-coaching-the-actor-playing-his-dad-in-n-w-a-film-20140703
Something a lot of you idiots don’t understand is is that Heller and Eazy were business partners. Eazy and Heller founded Ruthless and even after nwa broke up they remained partners until they died. All you gotta do is do research
thug life
yea but a couple of months before eazy e’s death eazy e decided to break partnership with jerry heller.
Eazy-E fired Heller months before he died because Heller and his relatives was mismanaging (taking) money
“Let a Jew break up my crew”
-Ice Cube
+wise1 yes he was.
+wise1 Yes he most certainly talking about Jerry Heller.
Joseph Vasquez Yet Cube fucked over a bunch of artists, including the actors on Friday.
NWAs Yoko
…a case of divide and conquer. 🎤🎤🎤🎤🎤
I don’t like heller but he was right about his son playing him
All in all jerry heller was the one of the main reasons why everyone in NWA are successful. But also one of the main reasons why NWA broke up and things unfolded so negatively after the break up. But jerry did defend NWA when back then rap music was not permitted and he got them a record deal and major distribution outlets to be successful
+ComeliaO7 the music industry fucks everybody
Jay And ghost writing came into existence and ice cube not getting the credit he truly deserved.
boohoo he was only thinking of his own financial benefits dickhead
Jay true
I didn’t know Bernie Sanders was the manager of NWA.
Rey Flores like fr
No wonder they didn’t like him lol
Rey Flores LoL 🤣
I laughed
All jews are after the same thing. Jerry exploited kids from the hood! Bernie exploited kids from the suburbs! Jews typically don’t leave any stone unturned!
Say what u want but jerry was a visualizer
jay scott he may fucked up ice cube but it was jerry who opened the doors for the nwa members and made them famous
Derenik Baghdasarian facts Jerry put them on
jay scott The real visualizers were N.W.A. He exploited them. It’s not as though no one else would have signed them. He just got lucky.
U might not like Jerry but he did open doors to NWA when no one else would
lil Smoozy Yeah he also screwed them really badly.
Move out The way hahah lol agreed
Fax
U right on tht
They would be really big without him too
Crazy how the actor they choose sounds exactly like him
frshmaine14 YES
They make they actor change the voice and edit it
frshmaine14 the dude who plays MC Ren looks way more mad
Wtf ??
Eazy’s son was given a chance to audition for the role but it was ultimately decided he was not a strong enough actor to pull it off. He didn’t seem to be upset in the interview I saw.
jerry heller still gots eazy e’s back
Juan Diaz even tho he stole most of eazy’s money
+The Dank Panda u are just another after movie fan, don’t believe everything u see 😉
Juan Diaz yet never had anybody else’s back in the crew.
-Vale- it’s actually true child…
Without Jerry…well you know and you heard that before…about money…EZ was no fool.
Jerry heller is still down for eazy e u can tell .
Juan Garcia of course he is, he stole eazy e money.
+West coast Dre Business is business…but this relationship was epic, not just about money….Plus, both Jerry and EZ were about money, they helped each other.
it was a sad moment in the film when Eric fired Jerry.
I know that Jerry was to blame for everything but still it was a sad moment. R.I.P. Eric Wright and Jerry Heller!!
If it wasn’t for this jew u rappers wouldn’t of been where your at now. May he r.i.paradise.
