The interviews and segments popping up in the media over the last few weeks have given fans of N.W.A. and the movie Straight Outta Compton background behind the group’s official biopic.
The Compton rap quintet’s DJ, DJ Yella recently sat down with Vlad TV and reminisced about “No Vaseline,” the beef track Ice Cube created after leaving the group.
“I thought it was cool,” Yella said when asked about the diss song. “That’s the thing about it. No one really got mad. It was like, ‘Okay, he got us on that one.’ I even told Cube this a couple of months ago. I told him, ‘You got us.’ That’s it.”

DJ Yella also spoke about his relationships with the members of the group and says his fondness for each changed depending on the time.
“Me and Dre was the closest out of the whole thing but everyone you get close with, Ren for a while, Cube for a while, and Eric,” he said. “It just went through different phases [of relationship cycles].”
N.W.A.’s biopic, Straight Outta Compton was released to theaters on August 14 and has already grossed more than $60 million.
