I doubt it, but wonder if opazo guy ever got a reply in the last decade.
Think I found his easy e youtube channel, but no videos in 8 years. Then again, I don't know how common the name is.

even mentioned in the last paragraph of this article:
Interestingly, the same year that Efil4zaggin and Use Your Illusion were released, Eazy-E and GN’R allegedly recorded a track together, “The Yellow Road of Compton,” but it was never released.

Been trying to get these for years, The DAT tapes were taken from the trunk of his car while he was in hospital and taken to Canada.
FBI files make for some interesting reading https://vault.fbi.gov/eric-wright-easy-e-ez-e
I always wondered if the GN'R songs were on those tapes and that interview a bit back sort of confirmed it. Slash and Duff were on the songs according to Ruthless Records paperwork, there's a few press releases where it's mentioned actually.
It was meant to come out May 11th 1993
Yellow Brick Road To Compton was one. I used to hear rumblings about a song called Apocolypse and a third was this with Slash on
Re: Eazy-E (of N.W.A) feat. Guns-n-Roses - Yellow Brick Roads of Compton
Haven't thought or heard of that in years.
If memory serves me correctly....when the info first came out back then wasn't it assumed that all of GNR worked with NWA?
If its just Slash and Duff....I don't really consider it a GNR/NWA collaboration.
It does make you wonder what might have happened if NWA had opened for GNR summer 91. They were still going into the studio to finish UYI. Something interesting might have happened.
In an alternate timeline....
Edit
First time I've seen a thread bumped with Tommie's posts in years.
RIP Tommie

I have label paperwork that specifically says Duff & Slash ill post it when I find it again. It's from one of two document's though from memory, he actually tried to put out the songs more than once. He got into a beef with Ice Cube I think which bumped it off the album he was working on at the time so he could instead do tracks about him.
"So strap up fool's and lets ride the yellow brick road to compton" That line found it's way into the Ruthless radio theme i believe. So I always suspected parts of it were re-purposed into other songs
