Jerry Heller already let everyone know how he felt about F. Gary Gray's megahit N.W.A. biopic Straight Outta Compton (hint: he might sue), so now he's once again enlightening others regarding his side of N.W.A. history, particularly his relationship with the late legend Eazy-E. Though Heller has vaguely addressed these topics in a smattering of interviews over the past few years, his candidness in a new interview with Smashd (particularly when discussing the always controversial Suge Knight, who Heller believes "put the hit" on Tupac) provides some fascinating expansions on previously acknowledged rumors:
