Did the world get the full truth about Eazy-E’s death?
Eric "Eazy-E" Wright changed hip-hop forever, but 30 years later, questions about his death still remain. His son, Lil Eazy-E, sits down with Joseph "JoJo" Simmons on the For Good podcast to discuss his father’s impact, the pressure of carrying his name, and the unanswered questions surrounding his passing. While honoring Eazy-E’s legacy through music and advocacy, he’s also focused on fatherhood and building something bigger than rap.
Lil Eazy-E shares that while he questions the official cause of his father’s death he still used his platform to push HIV/AIDS awareness. He also tells a funny story about life with JoJo on the Sons of Legends Tour, performing alongside Ice Cube, and what it is like hitting the road with DJ Yella to bring his father’s music back to fans around the world.
The conversation shifts to fatherhood, relationships, and Black men’s mental health as JoJo and Lil Eazy-E open up about:
- Being a girl dad and raising daughters with intention.
- Turning in their player cards and understanding the value of a good woman.
- Why marriage, emotional growth, and mental health matter for Black men.
