Surviving Compton: Dre, Suge and Michel’le

Found at a youthful age, the timid, squeaky-voiced Michel’le was plucked directly from South Central, Los Angeles and slipped to the spotlight when riding N.W.A.’s rocket ride of premature victory. Founded by business visionaries from eazye into Tupack Skaur, Michel’le instantly climbed the charts, but her musical victories were soon overshadowed by Faith and corruption. A not exactly decade-long romance with all the infamous Dr. Dre pushed her to a lifetime tarnished with alcohol, medication and violence before her savior came in the unlikely form of Suge Knight, cofounder of all Death Row Records and Dre’s firm partner. Friendship would develop to a courtly love affair, however the marriage Michel’le thought they’d didn’t end happily ever afterwards. With kids from men and a lifetime career to safeguard, Michel’le’s voice became increasingly quieted by Compton’s most important players. Until today.
