Arabian prince was actually cast in the movie and played by "Brandon Lafourche" but was cut because according to the director: “It felt like a mistake to focus on someone who wasn’t in the group for that long,” The Arabian Prince actor is actually on the Straight Outta Compton album cover in the actual movie if you pay attention to it for a split second! there is also some early photoshoots they did where they recreated old NWA photoshoots and the Arabian Prince actor is there! I know about the one where ice cube, dr dre, eazy and Arab is on the red jeep. I found that photo recreated with the actors early in production of the movie and Arabian Prince is there with them
NWA had 7 members at the NWA and Posse compilation album, Krazy-Dee was the only Latino member he "left" the group after he co-created the song "Panic Zone" with Arabian Prince but it was first called "Hispanic Zone" and recorded that way but Dre. Dre told Krazy-Dee "nobody is gonna buy a song called Hispanic Zone" so Krazy Dee changed the name to "Panic Zone "and re-recorded it with Arabian Prince on the lead vocals.
The non NWA tracks on the NWA and posse LP, were put on there as a bootleg. Panic zone was created because NWA couldn't get radio play with their gangsta stuff, so it was a track to get radio play to advertise the group.
He didn't stick around long enough to get his business straightened out, and he didn't do enough to make the movie. He should make his own movie. The members that stuck around and got their business sorted out were the ones that put the money up for the film.
I understand the business side. The D.O.C was in the film, he didn't put no money up. This channel is right Arabian Prince should have AT LEAST gotten a mention...😞😞😞
@@MichaelBellJr81 Of course. But Arabian Prince brought in J J FAD and some others to Ruthless. He at least should have gotten a mention, that's all I'm saying.
the song is give them something to dance to.Arabian Prince was bas ass back in those days.i saw them in concert when i was 17.dre was our dj for our night rallys in highschool.
All the people from that time period won’t forget him! I got to give much respect and credit to New Edition! They never cease to mention anyone and everyone who was instrumental to their careers!
That is true but Eazy but by the time Eazy E had discovered Bone Thugs -N-Harmony back in 1993 NWA had already broken up and then Eazy had passed away in 1995 but at least they did mention them in the movie
True, I remember it, they said his name on the beginning of the track, but No internet back then, so hardly anybody knew who he was. he was mentioned, but never returned. to this day, I still don't know what Yella contributed to the group.
The D.O.C , Bother Arab, and DJ Yella seem chill AF. Much love to the silent players on the team. Did anyone ever catch DJ Yellas tribute song to Eazy E. Not Long Ago
Dre, Yella, Arabian Prince, and Egyptian Lover all jammed together over at “Dudos” or what ever Lonzo’s spot was called at that time. anyway they were all there when NWA formulated except that Egyptian Lover wasnt officially part of the group.. Thats where the similarities between Brother Arab and Egypt’s styles came from. They from the same source..
Yeah, unlike NY, which was very territorial, everyone in LA knew of each other, Egypt knew the LA dream team who knew DJ pooh and King Tee, who knew Rodney O and Keith Cooley etc.
They did have Arabian Prince in the movie and written in there's pics exist of him redoing the cover for the first EP like one of the outtakes however he got cut out during the final say He got issues with Tomica Wright Eazy Widow regarding his royalties and fake signatures on old documents
Great video, thanks for sharing this. I hate their trying to make it seem like he was never in existence. They did the same thing to the salt n pepa documentary and left out Spinderella. From what I was told about the movie, Tameka Wright didn’t want him in the movie due to royalties and asking for his money.
Arabian Prince comes from the older generation like DJ Yella and Dre World Class Wrecking Crew who used to do electro rap.Panic Zone is exactly that style of music that was popular on the west coast back then.N.W.A wanted something new a different style came to Arabia Prince didn't get it and left. The new style was more street harder and the music more East Coast.
In interviews with Vlad and others Arabian Prince didn't really care for the spotlight I'm not sure if any of the members received all the money due to them, especially for Eazy Es family You should've shown what Arabian Prince is doing now btw
The scene were Ice Cube brought up the contract created Jerry Heller; those words were originally spoken by the Arabian Prince not Ice Cube in real life.
That's like if you think a plane is about to crash and you take a parachute and jump. But the plane doesn't crash and it stays on course. Now people say "why didn't they swing they plane back around to pick him back up"? What for? He clearly wanted off the plane!
"So if you look at the first N.W.A record, let me clear that up because everybody always says N.W.A. and the Posse. Now N.W.A. and the Posse was a bootleg." "Was it?" "Yeah, cuz N.W.A. was the record, it was an EP called N.W.A. and it had, what 4 songs on it maybe? And..." "Was that with Gangster, Gangster?" "Yeah, when we left Macola Records to do the Priority deal, Don Macmillan, who ran Macola, threw a bunch of other crap on there, the Fila Fresh Crew, and all this other stuff and turned it into an "album" and called it N.W.A. and the Posse. So we never authorized that, that was a bootleg." "Intresting..." "Yeah..." "So I think that Candyman was on the cover." "Yeay, yeah, yeah, well, the cover was the same cover as the original N.W.A., uh, EP. It was identical. He just added more songs, called it N.W.A. and the Posse and turned it to a full album release." "Yeah, I bought that actually." "Yeay, yeah, yeah, so, be, if you find your other one that just says N.W.A. that's the original." ruclips.net/video/ECAfnZIN1-A/видео.html
My dude, DOC was in the movie. Especially when they were in tour in Texas in the movie. Rewatch it and you will see DOC is in the movie. Especially when Eazy E said in the movie “Dre get your country ass cousin” they line cracked me up.
No he don't regret because u would feel the same way he did he started group with eazy e and dre then cube got In it then yella and then Ren bought jj faded in produce a few records he did solo records before he got in the group u trying to tell me he don't get paid for work he getting paid this man knew about business had solo record was on few label before he got on he knew the business he knew they was getting ripped off they didn't know that so he did smart leaving cube knew too how u touring put out ep and straight outta compton album u don't get contract til later then u don't get money for yo first project u drop few single too and drop album go on big tours u don't get nun u get plaque too u don't get nun they gave cube 32,000 like wtf u wrote alot record got big plaque you had tour I feel the same like arab too made produce and rap on few records co produce I don't get shit like come on
The Arabian Prince was an MC obviously, and Panic Zone is a classic. However, I never considered him a member of NWA. Just like the DOC, who also appeared on the song The Tuffest Man Alive. That album was basically what it was called. It was NWA and the Posse. And The DOC and the ARABIAN Prince were part of the Posse. Two guys who could rap, who were friends with the four NWA members, but were not in NWA. And yes DOC was in Straight Outta Compton the movie on a couple occasions. But, his main appearance was at the pool party. He was one of the key influencer for Dr Dre leaving NWA. In the movie he was actually portrayed as introducing Dre to Suge, and they made him look shady and conspiring Dre to meet Suge, and in turn leave Jerry and Eazy at Priority, to go with Suge and start his own label, Death Row. I can't believe you are a big fan of the movie and don't remember seeing DOC. He was in a few scenes, along with his main scene at the pool party. Ntm, before Dre went over to Death Row, he cut a few solo albums for The DOC. It was called The DOC No One Can Do It Better, and it was a dam banga! The DOC had mad talent. Unfortunately from what I know he got into an accident or something, but in any case his voice got ruined and it was all scratchy and raspy. But the DOC was a hell of a rapper. Check out his album. As for Arabian Prince, he was pretty much one and done. Yes Panic Zone is a classic, but it didn't have that rawness, and mostly it really didn't sound like NWA. He had more of a hip hop/dance not that hip hop/street gangsta sound. I mean Panic Zone is probably the only song on that album that you could jam to at a club. And no I don't remember seeing Arabian Prince in the movie at all. But I can say that I've Cube also wrote most of them songs on that album as well. And they did give him a shout out I believe on the Straight Outta Compton Album. But, I don't believe he got screwed. They let him come in and do a whole track for himself. He just wasn't in NWA. And tbh, I'm glad he wasn't because his influence may have given them a much more different sound. More techno electronica and his voice was great for that song in particular. But, I'm glad they just kept NWA as NWA. The four guys as we knew it. And the greatest example of it is this. NWA And the Posse was a descent album, but it lacked that powerful street vibe, storytelling, and straight rawness of the chaotic masterpiece that was Straight Outta Compton. And it showed immediately. When I was a kid, everyone had the SOC album. A lot didn't ever even hear or see the ATP album. And I mean SOC shot NWA into superstardom completely! It's the absolute quintessential album that defined gangsta rap. Sure Ice-T, Eric N and Rakim, Run DMC and so on definitely had some great albums as well. But let's be honest, Straight Outta Compton kicked the door in for rappers to get on the mic and say whatever the fuck tey felt, ty heir day to day, cops busting there balls, anything. And that Album was so important, without it, there wouldn't have been no 2Pac,Biggie, or even Eminem. And it's kinda crazy that I've Cube wrote most of that album. And as we know he was the first to leave NWA and become a very successful solo artist. After him it was Dre, as it may have been rightfully so. As Jerry and Eazy were making much more money than the rest of them. Then Dre. And it was really all a result of their first album without Ice Cube, EFIL4ZAGGIN. Which was successful, but the absence of Cube was definitely felt and heard. And it definitely definitely reflected their record sales for that album no doubt, and that's when Dre bounced. But back to the original statement. If the Arabian Prince was really that good, NWA gave him a platform and exposure to display his talent. So NWA tried to put AP on the map so no. The Arabian Prince didn't get screwed at all by NWA or anyone else. The powers that be didn't see him as bankable. And I agree. I would not buy a solo Arabian Prince album. You would?
I liked the SOC movie, its good but I just felt it could've been a little more honest and at least had arabian prince in the film. I havent watched it in so long so I forgot that DOC was in it, thanks for telling me- Im gonna check out that pool scene. I know all about DOC's fatal car crash... Ive listened to "no one can do it better"- its great, classic. I also really loved his second album "helter skelter"... where he talks about the illuminati and Armageddon and the mysteries of the music industry and stuff like that. He's been around- from that album- he tries to pass out inside knowledge of the satanic industry and world we live and agendas and stuff like that. his scratchy voice on the album actually enhances the experience and makes it a lot creepier listen... its a shame his voice changed but i actually think his voice change sounds pretty cool. Idunno I do really like the arabian prince... I would buy his solo albums... but there hard to find and stuff. I think if maybe they had discussed more about making more songs together... than we still could've gotten gangsta lyrics with some of his beats... kinda like a combo... but I see what your saying...
They were original members. Groups change members all the time, that doesn't mean we can just rewrite history. Even if he wasn't, he was still a major part of the beginning that it warranted a mention regardless.
He left before the world knew who NWA was..he's on the cover of SOC but doesnt appear on any songs. He CHOSE to leave and in my opinion he really wasnt needed for their success or the movie.
Arabian prince produced super sonic which was the first big ruthfless records single which went gold but also he co produced some of the songs on straight outta compton and he raps on the nwa song panic zone and something 2 dance 2
Actually he was. He's the guy standing between Yella and Cube on the SOC album cover, and even produced Somethin' 2 Dance 2. Even confirmed in an interview on the Goin' Off Podcast by AP himself. Seeing the financial issues with Jerry early on, he was the first to leave, then Cube left after, and eventually Dre left to form Death Row with Suge for the same reason.
@@InfeXiouZProductions I still dont agree, He was there but he was not a member, there were lots of people around but not all were part of the group NWA.
It was a dre movie, the screwed everyone besides ice cube. Eazy got dealt bad they lied bout him being broke. Mc ren was forgotten in the movie. They totally forgot the dre vs eazy.
As a Hip Hop Head Ima say that he didn’t fit the Image when it came to appearance , presence and sonically. His sound and look wasn’t Universal. Even though Cube & Eazy had jerry curls they were relatable
Its funny you mentioned Jerry's name last when talking about the money problems at Ruthless... "eazy and ice cube and oh yeah jerry" jerry was the main problem. And dude if you dont remember Doc was in the movie, you definitely didnt watch the movie. 3rd, NOBODY got their fair share from ruthless. cube and dre just made names for themselves outside of ruthless
Brother Arab is a solid album, but where’s my bytches was wack, I bought it thinking it would be like his first but I was massively disappointed 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
Are you two a couple the way you talking about that man's business seems like y'all did a lot of talking under the sheets...lol😱 yeah he got the wrong end of the stick alright 😅
He should've been included. But keep it real that Arabian Prince sh't was trash. How tf did Something To Dance To even make the album for one? C'mon son. His style was outdated for even that time. He was on some Electric Bugalloo sh't.
I appreciate what you're tryin to do here. I think he seems like one of the nicest guys and definitely no question his place in their history can't be disputed. However, he was NOT that important to what they were trying to do. Why I say that is because the two songs he actually worked on were there two songs that had absolutely NO tie to the sound of the rest of the album. So you kinda need to calm down on what you're complaining about dude. He really was not that pivotal to their story, especially since he left shortly after that concert in the midwest. Just sayin.

@@jmartin D.O.C. played more of a role in the long term success of the group and went on tour and was there for key moments....
@@MichaelBellJr81 Of course. But Arabian Prince brought in J J FAD and some others to Ruthless. He at least should have gotten a mention, that's all I'm saying.
He definitely was around long enough to be mentioned in the movie especially since it literally shows the beginning stages of the group forming 💯
the song is give them something to dance to.Arabian Prince was bas ass back in those days.i saw them in concert when i was 17.dre was our dj for our night rallys in highschool.
All the people from that time period won’t forget him! I got to give much respect and credit to New Edition! They never cease to mention anyone and everyone who was instrumental to their careers!
Ricky Bell was my favorite member of the group.
Arabian prince, Bone, JJ Fad and Kid Frost-the first Hispanic rapper ever, should have been in the movie!😢
That is true but Eazy but by the time Eazy E had discovered Bone Thugs -N-Harmony back in 1993 NWA had already broken up and then Eazy had passed away in 1995 but at least they did mention them in the movie
Kid Frost isn't the first ever hispanic rapper. There were rappers of Puerto Rican descent in NY in the 70s before Rap was ever recorded.
Arabian Prince co-produced and co-wrote "Something To Dance 2", on the "Straight Outta Compton" album with Dr. Dre, facts.
True, I remember it, they said his name on the beginning of the track, but No internet back then, so hardly anybody knew who he was. he was mentioned, but never returned. to this day, I still don't know what Yella contributed to the group.
@@johnstarks5323 Yella mixed and scratched on all of NWA's album and helped Dre engineer in the studio.
@@williamhayes981 I get it, more like behind the scene, role.
Egyptian Lover was before Arabian Prince. They sound alike because they worked in the studio together.
It's sad that a lot of groups have broken up because of money and Something 2 Dance 2 was my jam back in the day salute to Arabian Prince!☺️
Both "Something 2 dace 2" and "Panic Zone" are his sole contributions to N.W.A. .
And both suck
Prince is credited for the keyboards and beats on half of Straight out of Compton, including "Gangsta Gangsta" etc.
Arabian prince back with a style that's hype
Why was Arabian Prince wasn't portrayed in Straight outta Compton movie
Also straight outta Compton is getting a follow up film Dogg Pound 4 Life'.
The DPG movie is probably never coming out. Daz has talked about it since 2015 and cast actors, but don't think they ever finished it
The D.O.C , Bother Arab, and DJ Yella seem chill AF. Much love to the silent players on the team. Did anyone ever catch DJ Yellas tribute song to Eazy E. Not Long Ago
Dre, Yella, Arabian Prince, and Egyptian Lover all jammed together over at “Dudos” or what ever Lonzo’s spot was called at that time. anyway they were all there when NWA formulated except that Egyptian Lover wasnt officially part of the group.. Thats where the similarities between Brother Arab and Egypt’s styles came from. They from the same source..
Yeah, unlike NY, which was very territorial, everyone in LA knew of each other, Egypt knew the LA dream team who knew DJ pooh and King Tee, who knew Rodney O and Keith Cooley etc.
thank you for giving props to Arabian Prince. a shame he is forgotten
Arabian Prince produced JJ Fad's Supersonic, which was such a big hit that it funded the NWA records.
Legendary
He competed with DRE that’s why
They did have Arabian Prince in the movie and written in there's pics exist of him redoing the cover for the first EP like one of the outtakes
however he got cut out during the final say He got issues with Tomica Wright Eazy Widow regarding his royalties and fake signatures on old documents
Tomica is a "super bitch"(as Danny Boy would say) when it comes to her dealing inside Ruthless Records and financially screwing over its artists.
100%
He was popping way before Dre was.
Arabian Prince! back with a style that's hype not slow and low it's the fast type.
Thank you GOD no one never brings him up. My uncle GOD rest his soul always use to bring him up!!!!!!
Let the good times roll. " Nickle Bag"
Great video, thanks for sharing this. I hate their trying to make it seem like he was never in existence. They did the same thing to the salt n pepa documentary and left out Spinderella.

He was there before MC Ren....Ren was just closer to Eazy, he literally lived around the corner from Eazy.
Folks also forget they were also called The NWA and the Fila Crew....they were ALWAYS at our HS in Ontario California.....
The Brother Arab LP is aces - a lost classic of the era. He was true to himself and didn't pretend to be a gangster. Baddass beats on that one.
He's your favorite N.W.A member? Really? He did a couple filler tracks and bounced. He's not a bad guy or musician, but he opted out.
But he still contributed to the album regardless
In interviews with Vlad and others Arabian Prince didn't really care for the spotlight
I'm not sure if any of the members received all the money due to them, especially for Eazy Es family
You should've shown what Arabian Prince is doing now btw
He's doing tech and still does music
Based on this, his memoir is a movie of his own.
" Its a dope thang" " Its time to bone" and " she got a posse" are dope ass tracks
The scene were Ice Cube brought up the contract created Jerry Heller; those words were originally spoken by the Arabian Prince not Ice Cube in real life.
Like the 5th Beatle… same could be said for the DOC. tho DOC wasnt there at the very start..
DOC was a solo artist
@@simpdown1404
No one said he wasnt, he was still a major factor at Ruthless and later Death Row tho
That's right
That's like if you think a plane is about to crash and you take a parachute and jump. But the plane doesn't crash and it stays on course. Now people say "why didn't they swing they plane back around to pick him back up"? What for? He clearly wanted off the plane!

Straight outta Compton should’ve been a tv series like the wu tang show on Hulu

This dude butt hurt because Arabian Prince wasn't in the movie. He's probably more butt hurt than Arabian Prince
Yo naw if eazy was alive he would help him
“Notorious” was NOT better than “Straight Outta Compton” at all.
DPG 4 Life Aka Dogg Pound 4 Life follow up straight outta Compton
He left before the world knew who NWA was..he's on the cover of SOC but doesnt appear on any songs. He CHOSE to leave and in my opinion he really wasnt needed for their success or the movie.
Arabian prince produced super sonic which was the first big ruthfless records single which went gold but also he co produced some of the songs on straight outta compton and he raps on the nwa song panic zone and something 2 dance 2
Yeah how you supposed to get ahead when you been left behind that's why I be on my own grind
Them jheri curls.
🤔😭🤣
Didn't he leave after the cover was made? He had no idea how it was gonna sale.
Someone gotta check up on Krazy D!!!! NWA had a Mexican member in it that physically through hands with Suge!
Krayzee Dee
No shit never knew it wassix members,
They both had Jerry curls Dude stop...lmao
This fool tripn. AP was part of the posse, not NWA. This fool weird 😂
Actually he was. He's the guy standing between Yella and Cube on the SOC album cover, and even produced Somethin' 2 Dance 2. Even confirmed in an interview on the Goin' Off Podcast by AP himself. Seeing the financial issues with Jerry early on, he was the first to leave, then Cube left after, and eventually Dre left to form Death Row with Suge for the same reason.
@@InfeXiouZProductions I still dont agree, He was there but he was not a member, there were lots of people around but not all were part of the group NWA.
If they could barely fit in ren and the d.o.c then theres no chance they would fit in this guy.
I don't remember him being all that good......if I'm being honest. I don't recall him being considered as a talent.
How old are you it's two sides of the story behind the scenes there's a lot of things you don't know
Professor X
Are you pretending you don't know that the Egyptian lover was under Jerry heller?
Yo naw they we’re family not just friends
It was a dre movie, the screwed everyone besides ice cube. Eazy got dealt bad they lied bout him being broke. Mc ren was forgotten in the movie. They totally forgot the dre vs eazy.
what the fuck man!!! that sucks I liked that jam!! they didnt want to pay him shady shit
As a Hip Hop Head Ima say that he didn’t fit the Image when it came to appearance , presence and sonically. His sound and look wasn’t Universal. Even though Cube & Eazy had jerry curls they were relatable
He was about but he didn’t make the cut. Very simple. Nwa is eazy e Ren Dre yella and cube. That’s it.
Habibi, if u gna call yourself Arabian anything, u pretty much asking for trouble
there was some "bad-assery"... fuck yeah
Its funny you mentioned Jerry's name last when talking about the money problems at Ruthless... "eazy and ice cube and oh yeah jerry" jerry was the main problem. And dude if you dont remember Doc was in the movie, you definitely didnt watch the movie. 3rd, NOBODY got their fair share from ruthless. cube and dre just made names for themselves outside of ruthless
And that is why rap is falling off.SAD!
Brother Arab is a solid album, but where’s my bytches was wack, I bought it thinking it would be like his first but I was massively disappointed 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
Are you two a couple the way you talking about that man's business seems like y'all did a lot of talking under the sheets...lol😱 yeah he got the wrong end of the stick alright 😅
He should've been included. But keep it real that Arabian Prince sh't was trash. How tf did Something To Dance To even make the album for one? C'mon son. His style was outdated for even that time. He was on some Electric Bugalloo sh't.
9 minutes of repeating yourself.
We get it, you're in love with Arabian Prince😊
That movie was so full of shit
They are all scandalous. Lol.
That's how it's fake
Arabian prince was trash lol😂
he wanted 5million for the movie
I appreciate what you're tryin to do here. I think he seems like one of the nicest guys and definitely no question his place in their history can't be disputed. However, he was NOT that important to what they were trying to do. Why I say that is because the two songs he actually worked on were there two songs that had absolutely NO tie to the sound of the rest of the album. So you kinda need to calm down on what you're complaining about dude. He really was not that pivotal to their story, especially since he left shortly after that concert in the midwest. Just sayin.
This bo homie
Cut it out he was into making dance music so gangster rap was not him keep it moving
He wasn’t around long enough
