While hip-hop fans and avid moviegoers alike seem to agree that Straight Outta Compton has become one of the year's must see films, Eazy-E's daughter, Erin "E.B." Wright, recently opened up about working on a "jaw-dropping" documentary about her father. During a sit down with DatzHott, Wright shared her opinion on the N.W.A. biopic and revealed the subject matter of her forthcoming film, A Ruthless Scandal: No More Lies. Wright said that her film will fill in gaps about her father's legacy that were excluded from Compton.
"You're gonna see a lot more of my dad's life, stuff that you didn't really get to see in the movie, touch on a lot more things that people don't know about him," she said.
Specifically, Wright mentioned that her film will bring up Eazy-E's death and what happened to his family afterwards. The late rapper's son recently shared his opinion on the "Boyz-N-The-Hood" rapper's death, alluding to rumors that Suge Knight actually killed Eazy-E.
"I've been known my pops was killed." Yung Eazy said on his Instagram account. "His death never added up 2 what ppl have always said...notice in#StraightOuttaCompton Eazy did not get sick until after the studio incident with Suge and look how he acknowledged & admits on this interview with #JimmyKimmel injecting ppl instead of shooting them is a new thing that's done."
Members from rap collective Bone Thugs-N-Harmony, who were also signed to Eazy-E's Ruthless Records in 1993, shared similar sentiments during an interview with DJ Vlad. Eazy-E reportedly died from complications with AIDS in 1995.
Wright, who is working on A Ruthless Scandal with her mother and sister, said Monday (August 24) on Twitter that the film is scheduled to be released next year. Wright's film has reportedly been in the works since 2013.
Back in 2012, Ruthless Propaganda revealed their plans to release a documentary on the Compton rapper. Parts 1 and 2 are currently available on the Ruthless Memories website.
