Dr. Dre’s homeboy’s allegations of payoff

MissInfo.com

In an interview with HipHopDX, Bruce Williams who wrote a book about being Dr. Dre’s roaddawg (like “I’m With the Band” but without the sex? lol), claimed that Dr. Dre was coerced into donating 500k to Rev. Al Sharpton’s organization around the time that 50 Cent and Game had their…uh…incident at my workplace. According to Dre’s homie, not donating would have resulted in a PR-nightmare protest march against Aftermath’s vested interests. Hmmm….the source on this is mad suspect, but I’m 100% sure that these types of deals happen in cases of high-profile f–k-ups. Trust me.

Well now, Jimmy Henchmen and Rev. Al Sharpton have released statements denying Williams’ claim. Interestingly though…Dr. Dre has kept completely mum. It was his 500k that was or wasnt coughed up, right?

Jimmy Rosemond, Game’s manager says:

“I am 100 percent positive that the Game did not come to the conference in fear of Al Sharpton marching and Rev. Sharpton had nothing to do with that conference or donations affiliated with it. The Game has worked with the community and National Action Network in the past and it has never been affiliated with a donation. The Game recently did a song in support of Sean Bell and has been vocal about his support for Nicole Paultre-Bell and the victims involved in the case.”
Rev. Al Sharpton’s rep says:

“The National Action Network and Reverend Al Sharpton were not involved with and did not attend a press conference held by hip-hop artists The Game and 50 Cent to announce their truce and donation to charities. At no point has Reverend Al Sharpton or an authorized representative of National Action Network met with Dr. Dre.
