Eazy-E Contracted AIDs From Tainted Acupuncture Needles, Insists Ex-Ruthless Records Rapper Frost

Former Ruthless Records rapper and hip-hop legend Frost has opened up how N.W.A’s Eazy-E contracted the AIDS disease that ultimately cost him his life.

Frost made this revelation while talking in the upcoming documentary, For The Record: The Story Of Latinos In Hip Hop, revealing that Eazy-E contracted the disease when he was getting acupuncture.

The West Coast rapper, who previously went by the name of Kid Frost, explained, via Hip Hop Wired, “I think [the hospital] really had a stronghold of giving [Eazy] tainted needles with the AIDS virus in ’em through acupuncture. How else would somebody else die that fast of AIDS. Have you ever heard of someone dying of AIDS in two weeks, bro? It’s like, ‘I’m in the hospital, I contracted the AIDS virus, on March 26th or whatever, I fall out and I die.”

Frost also added, regarding Eazy-E’s death, via Hip Hop DX, “I’m a tell you what happened with Eazy getting AIDS and I believe this to the day and I believe this to this day. I don’t care if you guys got it on film. You can tell the world. They gave him tainted needles with acupuncture. Needles that tainted him, they gave it to him.”

Frost then went on to explain that Eazy-E was getting acupuncture after injuring himself. Frost believes that someone then took advantage of this to taint the needles that led to his death.

“What happened was is that someone, I won’t say the name, but people know the name,” Frost continued. “I don’t wanna say that name ’cause it’s the devil’s name, but another person in rap, if you know you’re history of rap, calls him the devil. If you know the history of rap, West Coast rap, you know who I’m saying. I was told even in my last conversation from Eazy not to even talk to that man. Not only that, but I think that they really had a stronghold of giving him tainted needles with the AIDS virus in him with acupuncture.”

Eazy-E was admitted to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles on February 24, 1995, believing that he was suffering from asthma. However, after being attended to by doctors it was revealed that he had AIDS too.

After coming to grips with the news that he had the disease, Eazy-E released a statement on March 16 that he had the illness. Eazy-E then died from complications due to the disease just one month after he was diagnosed with the illness on March 26, 1995, at the age of just 31-years-old.

In his final message to fans, Eazy-E explained, “I just feel that I’ve got thousands and thousands of young fans that have to learn about what’s real when it comes to AIDS. Like the others before me, I would like to turn my own problem into something good that will reach out to all my homeboys and their kin. Because I want to save their a**** before it’s too late.”

The release of Straight Outta Compton earlier this year led to further conspiracy theories regarding the death of the musician.
