NEVER BEFORE SEEN image of Ice Cube & Dr. Dre just discovered in my deepest archives. Although we were mostly shooting black & white, this was from a lone color roll shot on a Hasselblad 500CE. It was November 11th 1988, the same day we made "THE MIRACLE MILE SHOT" ( aka the official press image for Straight Outta Compton "). This now historic session was made in my old apartment in The Miracle Mile area of LA when my roommates were out at their classes at UCLA
