    I believe him having a strong family structure with his mother and father in the household has a lot to do with his integrity and unwillingness to be exploited, they weren't rich but they also weren't poor. The industry loves these desperate brothers from broken households who are willing to do anything to come up, the same way pimps and sexual predators approach there victims. Guys like Doug won't put up with the BS because they understand that they don't have to. I always rocked with Doug E. Doug, I'm an 80's baby raised in the 90's, so I was 10 when Where I Live dropped, loved seeing more black faces on TGIF (which was my Friday night back then), and it was a good show. Class Act is one of my favorite movies and I also remember going to the movies to see Cool Runnings, we even had the VHS tape.

    At every level - wether you're in the projects/in a civil-service job/making 6 figures/an entrepreneur/in Hollywood - at every level, there are temptations, snakes, fair-weather friends, traps.. Hollywood and the music industry aren't *different* in that regard; 'just' the addition of fame & big money, *fame as an addiction*, the importance of*image*, trying to sustain a lifestyle you can't afford, and more *buying liabilities rather than asserts*.
