Eazy-E's Daughter, E.B. Wright Slams 'Straight Outta Compton' & Dad's Wife, Tomica Woods
Straight Outta Compton hit theaters this weekend, and was a huge success bringing in a total of $56 million in sales, but it appears that not everyone was happy about some of the film's highlights, including the late rapper and one of the stars of the film, Eazy-E's daughter, E.B. Wright.
According to The Shade Room, Erin, who goes by E.B., slammed the new film and her father's wife, Tomica Woods, but came back claiming that she did enjoy the N.W.A. movie.
In a series of tweets, E.B. wrote: "A lot of 'Death Row' story in what was the 'N.W.A.' story... They don't show that my dad went to court and still made money off of Death Row."
Erin continued, "Just saying a lot of pivotal moments in Eazy's life were left out. But let's all remember this was the N.W.A. story as a collective."
She even called out Tomica, who is the owner and CEO of Ruth Less Records, and inherited the record company in 1995 after her husband, Eazy-E. died from A.I.D.S.-related pneumonia. "She [Tomica] ran it into the GROUND! Ruined everything my dad worked so hard for #F*ckTomica," Ouch! Eazy's daughter had to be tweeting the entire film, because she continued venting and then tried to come back with some positive feedback. She tweeted, "All in all.. I'm still happy. Go see Straight Outta Compton and then sit tight and wait for the doc "A Ruthless Scandal: No More Lies."
Wow. It appears that E.B.'s words had some fans of the rap group, and some viewers of the film a little rattled. Some people took to Instagram to reply to her comments and wrote:
- lux_steez "It's not all about her dad she needs to stfu"
- rayvonce_"It's always that one family member..."
- __.snj "She was 4 when he died. How can you write a "Tell All" about something you didn't witness? All she know is what she's told which could be lies @_k0k0chanel"
- alilconceited "She was 4 when he died so how do she know what he did.. She just heard story's.. Maybe her dad did get beat up.. But she act like Its an Easy E movie.. This is a NWA movie... And if she want a movie about her father then she need to make one.."
- iam_mykaylab "First of all she was a non factor during this time so how she knows I don't know and this was not the Easy E show! #MovieWasBOMB"
After ranting on and on about the film, E.B. claimed that the documentary she was producing will be about the late rapper's life and death, which she claimed Straight Outta Compton left out. "A LOT of Eazy-E's storyline was missing but that's okay because I'm producing a documentary that will show EVERYTHING including his death."
If you thought Erin was finished, she was just getting started. The aspiring singer-songwriter took to Instagram to try to explain herself, but she made sure that everyone knew that she didn't have good feelings about her father's wife.
Some of the lengthy statement read: "Just want to make it clear that I AM IN FULL SUPPORT OF THE MOVIE .. Always have been ! Love ALL of the actors and I'm extremely proud ! If you read ALL of my interviews I constantly speak on how I'm most excited for my generation especially to get knowledgeable with what Eazy-E AND N.W.A. made possible for artist of today and how they influenced not only music but our culture."
She added, "As far as who DIDN'T and has NEVER kept my father's legacy alive in the right way .. that would be Tomica Woods. But once again .. We'll touch on ALL of these things in my documentary "A Ruthless Scandal: No More Lies."'
MStars News wants to know, did you enjoy the movie just the way it was? Will you be watching Erin's documentary about her father, Eazy-E?
