[edit] NWA breakup

The article currently says:

After the break up of N.W.A. in 1991, Yella was the only member to stay loyal to Eazy-E.

However, as far as I know, MC Ren also sided with Eazy-E after the breakup, remaining on Ruthless Records and even getting Eazy-E to produce his 1992 debut solo album. --Delirium 02:23, 20 April 2007 (UTC)

MC Ren left Eazy-E some time after the break up. --Tasco 0 17:12, 20 April 2007 (UTC)

MC Ren stayed in Ruthless and appeared on a couple of Eazy's songs in his last album, but I wouldn't consider him that much of being a sidekick for Eazy as much as Yella. --Flesh-n-Bone 20:55, 27 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Removed Trivia

I removed the entire trivia section. It was all false info anyways...68.164.80.10 01:42, 15 May 2007 (UTC)

Can you show some source? Mean while, I'll revert your version since I believe it's true. --Tasco 0 01:58, 15 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:DJ Yella.jpg

Image:DJ Yella.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 22:59, 2 June 2007 (UTC)
