Autopsy: The last hours of… Eazy-E

Autopsy: The Last Hours of…

Eazy E

On March 26, 1995 the music world was shocked by the sudden death of ‘Godfather of Gangster Rap,’ Eric ‘Eazy-E’ Wright. A true underdog, Eazy grew up on the crime-ridden streets of Compton, and forged an early career selling crack cocaine. But the constant threats of imprisonment and gang violence persuaded him to put his business skills towards a more legitimate enterprise – rap music. Setting up Ruthless Records with money from drug-dealing, Eazy and his friends developed a new, West Coast hip-hop sound that reflected the harsh realities of life in the ‘hood. Initially just a manager, Eazy was encouraged to get behind the microphone – where he found fame and fortune as a solo rapper and a key member of controversial group N.W.A. But his career came to an abrupt end when he was diagnosed with HIV at the age of 30 – and a month later he was dead. In the months and years that followed, questions over his diagnosis and conspiracy theories about how he died have cast a shadow of doubt over his final weeks. So what happened? World renowned forensic pathologist, Dr. Michael Hunter needs to analyze every detail to get to the truth of how Eazy-E died.

Bigg A Hints Unreleased Eazy-E While Promoting Lil Eazy Project

“[A Eazy-E feature] was almost there on this project,” Bigg A told Rock The Bells, before eluding to the possibility still being very real. “With the success of this record and the relationship we have with [Eazy-E’s widow Tomica], I think in the very near future we might see another Eazy-E project or another single with [Eazy’s] vocals from some unreleased music.”

For years, fans have wondered if Eazy still had unreleased music out there. After he passed, he had two songs pop up on the Ruthless 10-year anniversary project Decade of Game, a verse on Mack 10’s The Recipe, and an 8-song release called Impact Of A Legend, but nothing since then. However, Bigg A says there’s more unreleased music out there, including a collaboration with some rock legends. 

“There is unreleased music still out there,” Bigg A confirms. “We know for a fact that he had two or three or four reels in his car when he went to the hospital. Those reels came up missing. He had songs with Slash from Guns n’ Roses — he had songs with Guns n’ Roses on those reels. Those reels have been found ’cause they wound up in Canada. That’s a whole other story, but what happened to them [since], I don’t know. I don’t know if the estate got them, but there is unreleased music, and Yella has some, I know for a fact that there is some unreleased acapella vocals, that he was working on some records with a couple of producers I worked with and last I heard was that they were up in Dre’s studio.”
