'Surviving Compton: Dre, Suge & Michel'le' Every documentary tells a person's story but not every documentary is going to be satisfactory to it's viewers. 'Surviving Compton: Dre, Suge & Michel'le' didn't have a five star cast or a five star performance, but compared to the Aaliyah biopic it was well worth watching. She then left Suge where he was standing, took her two children and moved back home with her grandmother. Towards the end, Michel'le courageously confronted Suge and let him know that she knew everything. She also found out he was still married which meant she was not legally married to Suge. She later found out Suge was involved in some illegal shady business with the company and used her to do it. While Suge was locked up, his attorney persuaded Michel'le into signing documents that earned her $30,000 a month. By then she had two children, a son with Dr. When Suge took over Death Row Records things started to look suspicious to Michel'le but she was in the dark as to what was really going on. Knight hit Michel'le but according to the movie, it only happened once. Sooner or later Michel'le saw a different side of Knight when she asked him about releasing her second album. He made her feel loved in a way Dre never did. The singer described Knight as being gentle and kind. When Michel'le returned home she was in a better place and she didn't go back to Dre.

Michel'le called Suge who came to her rescue and put her in rehab. Noone ever stepped in to help Michel'le not even their manager Jerry.Īfter Michel'le had her first baby boy with Dre he left her stranded at home alone, with no food and no lights. As toxic as Dre's and Michel'le's relationship was she stayed hoping he would get better, but he only got worse as he continued to be physically abusive towards her. Michel'le knew she wasn't the only woman in Dre's life but she believed she was the main woman. Dre became close ans started seeing each other. While Michel'le was pursuing her music career she and Dr. Michel'le's first break out single was titled 'No More Lies' followed by 'Nicety' and the popular hit 'Something In My Heart'. She went from being featured on World Class Wreckin Cru's track 'Turn Off The Lights' to making tracks of her own. Like most biopics 'Surviving Compton: Dre, Suge & Michel'le' focuses on how Michel'le made her debut into the music industry. Marcos Taylor who played Suge Knight for the second time around wasn't the best impression but it doesn't take much to play a bodyguard! Hamilton's look and attitude was similar to the real Dr. Dre was better than Corey Hawkins who played Dr. She did a great job playing the role of Michel'le almost as good as Angela Basset did in the biopic film 'What's Love Got To Do With It' the story about Ike and Tina Turner.Ĭurtis Hamilton also did a good job acting as Michel'le's ex Dr. Rhyon Nicole Brown went from playing the baby sister in 'Lincoln Heights' to playing a female legend in the hip hop game. Marcos Taylor who also played Suge Knight in the biopic 'Straight Outta Compton'.
