A Ruthless Life • Eazy-E & Aaliyah

No Vaseline

Priority Records
-Cube's POV-

This morning I received a voicemail from Bryan. He told me to meet him at the office,
he needed to tell me something. After I ate breakfast I told my girlfriend Kim that I needed to be at the office as soon as possible. I asked her if she wanted to go, just so she can get out of the house. She's pregnant with our first child. She agreed to go.

We arrived at the office and saw Bryan sitting at his desk.

          "Oh you made it," he said with a grin on his face. "Hey Kim." 

"Hey Bryan. How do you like your new decor?" she asked. 

I destroyed Bryan's office awhile back because he was cheating me out of my money, the same reason why I left Ruthless Records. 

"I like my new furniture honestly," he said. 

"So what did you call me over here for? Why couldn't you just tell me over the phone?" I asked. 

"Because I want you to hear something. It's N.W.A.'s new single."

"Dre is just a nigga with heart a nigga that's smart. A nigga that's paid to say what others are scared to play. We started off with too much cargo, so I'm glad we got rid of Benedict Arnold yo.."

Bryan paused the tape. 

"Wait, Benedict Arnold?"

"Babe are they trying to call you a traitor?" Kim asked. 

"Yep," Bryan responded. 

"Hold up, they calling me a traitor?! I didn't say shit about them on Amerikkka's Most Wanted so why they trying to diss?"

"Goddamn I'm glad yall set it off. Used to be hard now you're just wet and soft. First you was down with the AK, and now I see you on a video with Michel'le. Looking like straight Bozos. I saw it coming that's why I went solo. And kept on stompin while yall muthafuckas moved straight outta Compton. Living with the whites one big house and not another nigga in sight. I started off with too much cargo dropped four niggas now I'm making all dough. White man just ruling. The niggaz with attitudes? Who you fooling? Y'all niggas just phony, I put that on my mama and my dead homies."

Eazy's House

It was not a surprise that Cube would hear our diss tracks and respond. We were all at my crib in the living room with Jerry listening to this little response he sent us.

          "Yella Boy's on your team so you losing. Aye yo Dre stick to producing. Calling me Arnold but you been a dick. Eazy-E saw ya ass and went in it quick. You got jealous when I got my company but I'm a man and aint nobody humping me. Tryna sound like Amerikkka's Most, you can yell all day but you dont come close. Cause you know I'm the one that flowed. You done run 100 miles but you still got one to go. With the L-E-N-C-H M-O-B and y'all disgrace the CPT. Cause you're getting fucked out ya green by a white boy with no vaseline." 

Jerry looked up because he know that line was meant for him.

          "The bigger the cap the bigger the peeling. Who gives a fuck about a punk ass villain. You getting fucked real quick and Eazy's dick is smelling like MC Ren's shit. Tried to tell you a year ago but Willie D told me to let a ho be a ho so I couldn't stop you from getting ganked now let's play big bank take the little bank. Tried to diss Ice Cube, it wasn't worth it because the broomstick fit your ass so perfect. Cut my hair? Nah cut them balls cuz I heard you like giving up the drawers. Gang banged by your manager fella getting money out your ass like a motherfucking Ready Teller. Giving up the dollar bills now they got the villain with a purse and high heels. So dont believe what Ren say cuz he's going out like Kunta Kinte but I got a whip for ya Toby. Used to be my homie now you act like you dont know me. It's a case of divide and conquer cuz you let a Jew break up my crew. House nigga gotta-"

Jerry stopped the tape. We were quiet because there was nothing to be said.

          "That shit was kind of funny," Yella said while laughing. 

"This muthafucka got us! Man what we gonna do?" Ren asked.

Jerry responded "who does this piece of fucking shit think he is?" 

He looked over at me and started yelling.

          "Eric how can you just sit there and not say anything? I dont understand why you're not angry about this! Did you not just hear what he said about you, about me-" 

I stood up and got in his face.

           "I heard what he said Jerry, I heard what he said! We can just go to the studio and end his whole damn career." 

"I don't know about that," Yella added.
