Eazy & Jerry Heller were borrowing money from the group & not paying it back, so Cube found this out & Eazy along with Heller didn't wanna pay what they owed so Cube left the group. Then the same thing happen with Dr. Dre & he didn't get the money he was suppose to get so he left. This Left MC Ren, Eazy, & Yella in the group, & they decided to split.

Dr. Dre explained that most of the money from record sales was being kept by Eazy & Jerry. So when Dre went to confront them both he wanted his money or out of his record deal & Eazy gave him only one choice; Dre could get out of his deal if he paid Eazy a portion of the profits on his next album. So while Dre made "The Chronic", Eazy still made money off of him. There is more detail, but the story is something like this.
