Ice Cube also reacts to claims that N.W.A's lyrics are misogynistic.
Dr. Dre addresses his relationship with former fiancée Michel'le and his assault of Dee Barnes in Rolling Stone's August 27 cover story, which also features fellow N.W.A member Ice Cube.
Dr. Dre dated Michel'le in the 1990s and they have a child together. Since breaking up, Michel'le has claimed that the rapper-producer beat her and shot at her while they were dating.
In 1991, Dr. Dre assaulted Dee Barnes at a music industry event in Los Angeles. Barnes was the host of the video show Pump It Up! Dr. Dre and N.W.A were upset with Barnes because an episode of Pump It Up! featuring N.W.A also included an interview with Ice Cube, who had left the group.
Barnes brought a lawsuit against Dre, which was settled out of court.
"I made some fucking horrible mistakes in my life," Dre says. "I was young, fucking stupid. I would say all the allegations aren't true. Some of them are.
Those are some of the things that I would like to take back. It was really fucked up. But I paid for those mistakes, and there's no way in hell that I will ever make another mistake like that again."
Dr. Dre's career is depicted in the forthcoming Straight Outta Comptonmovie, which is scheduled be released in theaters Friday (August 14),
Elsewhere in the interview, Ice Cube denounces criticism regarding claims that the group's music is misogynistic.
"If you're a bitch, you're probably not going to like us," he says. "If you're a ho, you probably don't like us. If you're not a ho or a bitch, don't be jumping to the defense of these despicable females. Just like I shouldn't be jumping to the defense of no punks or no cowards or no slimy son of a bitches that's men. I never understood why an upstanding lady would even think we're talking about her."

B-13 Peer Review To break it down clearly: - Criminal cases (e.g., if someone were to press charges) require proof " beyond a reasonable doubt ", which is a much higher standard. - Civil cases, like lawsuits for defamation, assault, or emotional distress, only require a " preponderance of the evidence ", meaning it's more likely than not (just over 50%). People often file civil suits instead of criminal charges for various reasons: - Statute of limitations for criminal prosecution may have already expired (even if civil is still valid). - Prosecutors might decline to file charges, due to lack of strong enough evidence. (lack of or No Mens rea ) Victims may want financial compensation, which only civil court can provide. Control: In a civil case, the accuser has more direct control over the process, unlike a criminal case which is handled by the state or " We the people ."
