Dr. Dre seems to be one by one addressing his past and is once again apologizing.
This time for his attack on television host and journalist Dee Barnes back in 1991.

In part two of The Defiant Ones, HBO’s docuseries on Dr. Dre and Jimmy Iovine, the rap mogul opened up about the incident. Barnes has said he attacked her following an interview she conducted in which she criticized his group, N.
W.A. According to a Rolling Stone article written shortly after the altercation, Barnes said that “Dre picked her up and ‘began slamming her face and the right side of her body repeatedly against a wall near the stairway’ as his bodyguard held off the crowd.”
Now, the rapper, whose real name is Andre Romelle Young, is looking back with regret. “Any man that puts his hands on a female is a f–king idiot,” Dre says in the new docuseries. “He’s out of his f–king mind, and I was out of my f–king mind at the time. I f–ked up, I paid for it, I’m sorry for it, I apologize for it.”
“I have this dark cloud that follows me,” he continues. “And it’s going to be attached to me forever. It’s a major blemish on who I am as a man.”
Part two of The Defiant Ones airs on HBO Tuesday, July 11, at 7:50 p.m. ET.
