Biography

Eric "Eazy-E" Wright, born on September 7, 1964, in Compton, California, was a prominent figure in gangsta rap as a member of N.W.A and founder of Ruthless Records. Despite controversy, Eazy-E's unique delivery and charisma propelled him to stardom. Following N.W.A's breakup, Eazy-E's health declined, and he tragically passed away from AIDS in 1995.

Eazy-E's entrepreneurial spirit led him to establish Ruthless Records and discover talents like Ice Cube and Dr. Dre. Despite success with N.W.A and as a solo artist, Eazy-E's career was marked by feuds and controversies. His legacy was honored posthumously with the release of his unfinished album and inductions into the Rock 'N Roll Hall of Fame in 2016, recognizing his impact on the rap and hip-hop scene.
