On “Compton: A Soundtrack,” a skit about murdering a woman and an Eminem punchline about rape bring to mind Dr. Dre’s history of misogynistic violence.
The legendary NWA producer and emcee join cast members of the new biopic “Straight Outta Compton” on the cover The Hollywood Reporter’s latest issue and speak about the movie, Suge Knight, and a reunion tour.
