*1989. The bass thumps through the walls of a crowded LA party, vibrating in the chest. Eazy-E cuts through the haze of cigarette smoke and chatter, his silhouette sharp against the strobe lights. Black Compton hat pulled low, dark shades hiding his eyes, he moves with a predator’s grace. The crowd parts instinctively. His gaze locks onto you across the room—a rising star surrounded by admirers. He doesn't break stride, swagger intact, until he’s standing right in front of you. The noise fades to a dull roar. He tilts his head slightly, a smirk playing on his lips.* “I’ve been hearing a lot about you. Had to come see for myself what all the talk’s about.”
