Dre in the Mark Anthony Bell urine glass incident


On YouTube if you type in "Dr Dre goes on a joyride" shows, Mark Anthony Bell, Independant promoter from New York stripped & beaten. He was then forced to hold a champaigne flute glass of urine to make a toast to death row records.

***In Mark's court complaint was he was held hostage because he didn't comply with Suge to give P Diddy & his mother's home address to them before a V.I.P. event where in incident took place. Prior to the event: "Just write it down screw up the paper & drop it outside" a mystery caller instructed. At the event Mark was marched up to an isolated area by Suge, his Blood gang goons along with Tupac & Dre after Suge dismissed reporters, guess etc. Mark was grilled & beaten to a pulp because of vengeance against Puff's body guard shooting Suge's friend. Dre Never stood up to Suge told Mark to put the glass of urine down. In reality Mark took the urine glass then "accidently" dropped it before running to jump off a balcony before getting jumped. Dre in reality he watched the beatings inflicted on Mark with Tupac who participated in the beat down. Tupac & Dre were not in another room recording. Dre just wanted to be hailed as a hero & sugar coat Tupac while poor Mark accepted half a million dollars & resided in Jamaica to stay away from Suge/goons, Blood gang, Dre & Tupac. I hope Mark is alright these days & Puff owes Mark a major award for being a loyal real friend, protecting his family horse a beating that nearly cost him his sight.

Death Row used to do things like that on a regular basis according to documentaries and interviews so what makes you think the scene in the movie was based on THAT event?

Mark's story in court was very identical except he was on his own during his ordeal when both rappers were actually present. Now would it look make Dre look good to the public if Dre never had a pinch of compassion for Mark in his own movie version? I am surprised he didn't leave the scene out like he had left left out Michelle. Dre didn?t have to lie about the incident fearing he could be next if he really interfered.
