Dre just made very bad moves before he gave Ruthless a chance. Did you see Ren or Yella jump ship? Must not have been that bad. And to betray his firend (Eric) and the person who gave his carear a chance. And take in consideration, this is when Gangsta Rap was just begining, not that much money was being made.
I also just read that half ass biography about Dr. Dre, it had a few stories I did not hear.....but Jerry Heller's points made more sense.
