Lil Eazy-E spent a little time in Los Angeles County Jail and fresh upon his release he sits with Steve Lobel in an exclusive interview and recalls the moment he ran into Suge Knight.
“He don’t look too good,” the Compton, California rapper says. “I did about four or five months while he was going through that. I sat in day rooms and watched it on TV what he did. That little movie scene on a commercial set and was like, ‘Oh, he’s about to come in here.’ When he was visiting we was coming, he was just on high power and with me being in GP, general population, we had to turn around and face against the wall because they’re high security individuals.”
Lil Eazy-E says that he was well-received behind bars and got a lot of love from the inmates because of the respect they hold for his father, the late Eazy-E.
Elsewhere in the interview, the son of the Ruthless Records founder shares his hopes for the record company’s revival since there’s been a new interest in the legacy Eazy-E left behind.
He also gives his reasoning as to why his father chose to name his company Ruthless Records.
“Define him,” the 31-year old rapper says. “His lifestyle at the time. Pops came up tough. Being born and raised in Compton you just have to cut-throat and ruthless. You got to be hard.”
The full interview of Lil Eazy-E discussing with Steve Lobel his run in with Suge Knight is as follows:
suge is still the big bad guy everyone loves to hate
I want to smoke some crack and cigars.
You are bitch for saying shit like that
This guy another nigga in the pen. While people give him respect because of his father, he has no real rank on the streets. This nigga should be ashamed he’s not one-third the man his father was.
Not everyone can be the legend E was man. Sometimes you just do what u gotta do to get by…
That white dude is gay g!
Why the fuck is Lil Eazy in jail in the first place… He ain’t got that in him
Lmao, bitch stfu talking like u have a clue
the video is kinda awkward, because the white interviewer sounds like he’s trying to be too black, while lil E sounds more intellectual and articulate than white boy.
Man you really sound stupid and need to experience life and people more from outside of your stereotypical box
lol…you must be young. do you even know who steve lobel is?? I dont think so. ignorant kids know nothing back rap
Oh ye thats right, i forgot, only white people can be racist and reverse racism cant possibly exist…smh dumbass
Suge Knight not lookin too good huh? Glad to hear it.
Lil’ Eazy is very articulate. But the interviewer is on some goofy, “I wanna be down” Marky Mark type shit. Stay in your lane dude!
You must not know who the interviewer is then, Steve Lobel managed not just EazyE but a plethora of others including BoneThugs, Nipsey, and Common. He’s been “down” and he helped create this lane for a lot of people in the industry. #knowledgedroppedbyawhitedude
