Dr. Dre Apologizes To The 'Women I Hurt'

Finally, Dr. Dre is revealed apologising for the abuses that he subjected various women to so many years ago.

He is clear that he deeply regrets whatever he has done to them, according to tmz.

The apology follows the success of "Straight Outta Compton" a film in which he does not mention Dre's "violent past with girlfriends, a journalist, and a female rapper", who have talked against him recently.

Dre gave an interview to nytimes: "Twenty-five years ago I was a young man drinking too much and in over my head with no real structure in my life. However, none of this is an excuse for what I did."

He added, "I apologize to the women I've hurt. I deeply regret what I did and know that it has forever impacted all of our lives."

Apple, where Dr. Dre, 50, now works as a top consultant, also issued a statement: "Dre has apologized for the mistakes he's made in the past and he's said that he's not the same person that he was 25 years ago. We believe his sincerity and after working with him for a year and a half, we have every reason to believe that he has changed."

However, the former girlfriends who spoke up have a lot to say. "I've been talking about my abuse for many, many years, but it has not gotten any ears until now," said Michel'le, who was romantically involved with Dr. Dre from the late-'80s until the mid-'90s, and has a son by him who is now adult.

At that time, he hit her with a closed fist and left "black eyes, a cracked rib and scars." Michel'le said she never pressed charges because, "We don't get that kind of education in my culture."

She explained that "Opening up and finding out there were other women like me gave me the power to speak up."
