R.I.P. Jerry Heller

Ruthless

Former N.W.A. manager, Jerry Heller, passed way on Friday at a hospital in Thousand Oaks, CA. He was 75. According to the AP, Heller’s cousin said he suffered a heart attack while driving.

Alongside the late Eazy-E, Heller co-founded Ruthless Records and released N.W.A,’s debut Straight Outta Compton under the imprint. In 2006, he released his memoir, Ruthless. Last year, he was portrayed by Paul Giamatti in the group’s biopic, Straight Outta Compton.  He later sued NBC Universal for defamation.

So far, none of the surviving N.W.A. members have commented on his passing. Condolences to his friends and family.

    The music has always been managed by shady people. The mobsters in New York, Chicago, and other areas paid the Jazz musicians to play music in their clubs. Babyface and L.A. Reid robbed TLC blind. Prince had to change his name during a contract dispute because they owned his name, and he discussed how dirty the music business is. That is why these musicians turned to acting and other endeavors where they have the power. Ice Cube was smart enough to not sign the contract. Dr. See had to use some strong arm tactics to get free of his..

    RIP Jerry Heller
    You definitely played a major part in hip-hop history even though you was portrayed as the bad guy in straight outta Compton without you they would not have been no nwa, no dre & snoop, no death row records, no g-funk era, no Eminem, no 50 cent, no Friday movies, no bone thugs and definitely from my favorite rapper on Life After Death no Notorious Thugs. Hopefully you and easy will make amends an realise how much u both changed hip-hop forever. Thank you.,.,.

    Anybody saying there would be no NWA without Jerry Heller needs to shut the fuck up. The group existed before him and HE is responsible for ruining it.

    I don’t know Jerry Heller but when I saw he died, I just cracked a smile. I know it’s fucked up but I really hate ppl who can’t admit the truth.

    Not one time did Jerry Heller admit to fucking over Ice Cube or any NWA member. He couldnt even just admit that he had them sign fucked up contracts or that he did Ice Cube dirty as the man who penned most of the lyrics for NWA early?

    He fucked Cube and then Dre realized he was being fucked too, Dre who was producing everything…. Basically he was fucking everybody who had anything to do with the creation of the music. Don’t tell me that man deserves to be celebrated, he’s a piece of shit.

    Ppl need to stop giving a pass to fucked up music executives, as if they brought you some greatness. All the shady execs who we want to give credit for bringing us artists, haven’t done anything great, they just bank rolled the situation, even you could do that if you were in position to do it.

    Fuck Jerry Heller and any body who looks up to him. It’s been that way for as long as I can remember, I didn’t need a movie to remind me that this guy broke up one of the most powerful Hip Hop groups in history.
