Dr. Dre Releases Statement About Physical Abuse: I apologize to the women I’ve hurt.
Dr. Dre
Fresh off the success of the NWA biopic Straight Outta Compton, Dr. Dre is receiving criticism about old allegations claiming that in the past he has been physically abusive to women. Specifically, his ex-girlfriend (whom he shares an adult child with) singer Michel’e and journalist Dee Barnes, who penned an open letter about her experience.

While he didn’t address specific allegations or individuals, he did release the following statement to The New York Times:
Twenty-five years ago I was a young man drinking too much and in over my head with no real structure in my life. However, none of this is an excuse for what I did. I’ve been married for 19 years and every day I’m working to be a better man for my family, seeking guidance along the way. I’m doing everything I can so I never resemble that man again.

This dude is a (Monster)….For Life!!
Yeah, easy for him to say now and I’m at a loss for why Apple felt the need to say anything. Especially when no sympathy was shown for the victims.
I’m sure he abuses his wife too. smh.
He cannot go back and change what happened in his life. People can change if they acknowledge they had an issue. He has apologized. Let the brother be. Are you still calling Chris Brown a monster? Probably not because you to busy dancing to and singing his songs. Should his record label stop doing business with him? How can you guys judge if he is abusing his wife. STOP assuming what you don’t know. I don’t condone abuse,but we would have never heard from this women if this movie had not been profitable as it was. No can move forward looking through the rear view mirror. Food for thought. Just my opinion.
