Apologizes to ‘Women I’ve Hurt’

Apology0 Comments

Dre responds to allegations of domestic abuse. While he does not address each allegation individually, he says:

Twenty-five years ago I was a young man drinking too much and in over my head with no real structure in my life. However, none of this is an excuse for what I did. I’ve been married for 19 years and every day I’m working to be a better man for my family, seeking guidance along the way. I’m doing everything I can so I never resemble that man again…I apologize to the women I’ve hurt. I deeply regret what I did and know that it has forever impacted all of our lives.

I put the track on, we had a little bit of idle chitchat, I put on the beat, and maybe five seconds in – I swear to God – he goes, ‘Hi, my name is.’ That was it. And it’s still clicking.

Oh yeah bootlegging you know, you can’t stop that though. It’s been going on, it’s gonna keep going on. What we try to do is put the records out there as fast as possible before they get a chance to eat it up.
