Watching Michel’le’s biopic was hard to take in after witnessing the alleged abuse she endured at the hands of Dr. Dre and Suge Knight. The movie that premiered on Lifetime on Saturday [Oct. 15th], had Twitter in a frenzy.
They were angry and shocked to learn that Michel’le, who was seemingly a sweet hearted Women, was subjected to turning to drugs and alcohol to escape from the alleged physical and mental abuse. The First Lady of Ruthless Records had a promising career as a phenomenal R&B/ Pop singer, but was cut short after Dr. Dre and Suge Knight railroaded her career as portrayed in the movie.

This #SurvivingCompton movie is painful to watch. Dr. Dre is a woman beater. Can't believe Michel'le stayed with him all those years
