On March 26th 1995 Eric Lynn Wright, aka Eazy-E, passed away from AIDS-induced pneumonia. As a member of controversial group N.W.A. and a pioneer of the gangster rap genre, Eazy-E's HIV status sent shock waves through the community. In part one we set the scene and take a look at Easy-E's life in the world of hip-hop.
