The Mysterious Death of Eazy-E | We TV

[Stick Up Kid]

Who’s Easy E

 

[Skooby]

Up...

 

[Professor Emeritus]

Daz was on radio talking about him having AIDS before anyone even knew. Add that with Suge on Jimmy Kimmel insinuating that he had someone stick Eazy with a needle, to Eazy having full blown AIDS and seemingly skipping past even having HIV and dying so fast is a little suspicious.

In the earlier days of AIDS some folk died just weeks or months after diagnosis. Lots of the random folk who were dying in from the disease in California in the 1980s were literally diagnosed on their deathbeds. They probably had HIV for some time before that, but how would you know you had HIV if you had no reason to get tested? Magic found out cause he got a complete physical and bloodwork to qualify for a life insurance policy. But Easy E was just a rapper who didn't have any particular reason to get tested.

Back then, without any testing, you didn't know you had AIDS until you actually got sick. He might have had had fatigue, some aches and pains, but does Easy really strike you as the kind of person who is gonna hit up the doctor for every little thing? Maybe he got a rash or muscle aches or symptoms that looked like venereal disease....is it guaranteed that he goes to the doctor? So he doesn't end up getting tested until he catches that case of pneumonia, and unfortunately pneumonia kills folk with weakened immune systems all the time.

Eazy E legacy should be a lot more out there, but Tomica and some in the family fukked that up

What does the Daz thing matter...the news not being public doesn't mean it was a conspiracy. And Suge's comment was years later. Admittedly a weird comment but I mean...Occam's Razor makes it pretty simple for me. Lot of people got AIDs in the 90s, and died quickly. People didn't simply have HIV for a few years before dying back then. If you found out a celeb had AIDS they died within weeks or months, back then. Freddie Mercury being the big example.

Eazy was fukking bytches in LA raw. Add needles to the mix, down low jail brehs in the crew, etc etc and yea, it makes a lot of sense that he got it.

They really believe this is a conspiracy theory

they just milking this shyt

Even BG knockout was saying he had an inhaler and had bronchitis. Tbh I think Eazys doctors misdiagnosed him instead of making him take a test.

 

[Wacky D]

I love Eazy but man dude was reckless in the glory era of HIV/AIDS. Alot of people was dying back then not getting tested and waiting until the last minute until it was too late.

I've never seen anyone die from aids while being built like a tank

They got away with it in 95, because we didn't know what we know now.

He was a regular visitor at the time from my understanding, due to bronchitis.

Bronchitis usually comes and goes quickly and doesn't need much medical intervention - take some antibiotics and you're done. That sounds like he was already immunodepressed from undiagnosed AIDS and the bronchitis developed into the pneumonia that killed him.

Nah they really believe it. Sometimes losing a loved one in that way is going to cause denial. I say find out as much as you can but I wouldn't be surprised if malpractice is involved.

They don't blood test you for that.

 

[Monoblock]

With all due respect there is no mystery and this sounds like a cash grab. Sad really.

But how did he get to the AIDS stage in the first place? Where's the regression?

Also, why don't any of his kids, baby-moms or "wife" have the disease?

But how did he get to the AIDS stage in the first place? Where's the regression?

Like I already pointed out, a lot of people suffering from AIDS in the 1980s and early 1990s weren't even diagnosed until they were already close to death. AIDS attacks your immune system first and foremost, so if you get hit by the wrong disease early in the progression when you immune system is weak but other shyt hasn't hit you yet, that one disease can get you like a ton of bricks. If Easy had gotten far enough to get his immune system weakened, but not far enough to cause his body to degrade in other ways, then that bronchitis/pneumonia might have hit him the same way that pneumonia randomly kills all sorts of healthy-seeming people in their 50s and 60s, whose immune systems just happened to have weakened enough to make them vulnerable.

Here's a list of famous people who died of pneumonia. Notice how most of them had their immune system weakened in one way or another, but some were apparently healthy and no one knew they were on the verge of death before it happened:

Also, why don't any of his kids, baby-moms or "wife" have the disease?

Unless he's doing shady shyt a father ain't gonna transmit to his kids. It only transmits during childbirth from the mother to the child. Before antiretroviral drugs, the transmission rate from mother to child during pregnancy was about 20% - so 80% of the time the kid didn't get it from the mother.

Husband to wife is of course much more likely than father to kid. But heterosexual sex isn't actually as frequently transmitting as many people assume (it ain't like Kids made it out to be). In western countries, before ARVs the spouse of someone with AIDS ended up catching AIDS about 12-24% of the time. So unless you're doing anal or sharing needles, there was a real chance that you would get lucky and escape the disease.

AIDS ain't crazy-transmissible like Covid, it's more like a really nasty lottery. The chances of catching it in any one encounter are limited, but the more times you buy a ticket the higher your chances get. Some people were super fukking unlucky and caught AIDS that one time they did something that exposed them, but most people who were catching it were doing that shyt over and over before it caught up to them.

Unless they interview and talk to the medical staff or doctors that treated him then this is nothing more than just a money grab conspiracy documentary, not intended on finding out the truth
