11:54Now PlayingLegendary music manager Jerry Heller recently caught up with Prez and Mac Jay for an episode of the Murder Master Music Show, where he spoke about upcoming projects, inaccuracies in the NWA biopic, and more.
When asked about new projects he has in the works, Jerry revealed that he's working on a cable series directed by Jim Sheridan who worked on Boardwalk Empire. While speaking about his own projects, Heller also revealed that he watched the NWA biopic, "Straight Outta Compton" with his lawyers, and he's currently working out how he'll handle how he was portrayed in the film.
After speaking about his excitement for NWA being nominated to be inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, Jerry spoke about other prolific groups in hip-hop. The famed music manager revealed that he believes that NWA and Public Enemy were two of the most important groups in hip-hop, and he also stated that "if there wasn't an NWA, Above the Law would've been the biggest group on the West Coast."
