The Story of N.W.A. – In Theaters August 14th, 2015
In the mid-1980s, the streets of Compton, California, were some of the most dangerous in the country. When five young men translated their experiences growing up into brutally honest music that rebelled against abusive authority, they gave an explosive voice to a silenced generation. Following the meteoric rise and fall of N.W.A., Straight Outta Compton tells the astonishing story of how these youngsters revolutionized music and pop culture forever the moment they told the world the truth about life in the hood and ignited a cultural war.
Starring O’Shea Jackson Jr., Corey Hawkins and Jason Mitchell as Ice Cube, Dr. Dre and Eazy-E, Straight Outta Compton is directed by F. Gary Gray. The drama is produced by original N.W.A. members Ice Cube and Dr. Dre, who are joined by fellow producers Matt Alvarez and Tomica Woods-Wright. Will Packer serves as executive producer of the film alongside Gray.

Trailer looks pretty darn good, but I will not see this on opening night though
Dre created some of the most if not the most violent music of their era. I definitely didn’t like where California artist took hip hop.
c. deloris tucker (RIP) called it years ago.
YES SHE DID, BUT IT WAS DA JOOS N TPTB THAT HAND PICKED DIS GROUP 2 INITIATE DA AGENDA ON YOUNG BLACK MEN TRICKED N2 COMMITTING CRIMES AND B N FUNNELED N2 THE JUSTICE SYSTEM WHERE THEY COME OUT FELONS, FAGGOTS, AND DL BROTHERS.
ASK YOURSELF, WHO WAS THEIR MANAGER?
WHAT HAPPENED TO EAZY E, WHEN HE DID NOT GO ALONG 2 GET ALONG???
OUT OF ALL DA POSITIVE HIP HOP/RAP MOVIES THAT THEY COULD HAVE MADE, (N DERE R DOZENS) WHY, OH WHY R THE ONLY BIG BUDGET HOLLYWOOD MOVIES THEY GREEN LIT R DIS 1 AND “CB4”??????

Yes she did…it’s the law of attraction, you get what you think about good or bad, this music just multipled the ills of our people.
Dre has become a very attractive older man. He is one of those dudes who ages well.
okay but two wrongs wont ever make a right in the universe! they need to acknowledge the fact that Suge Knight only caused havoc because they are trying to exploit his name behind his back so its only “right” that they completely exclude his name or any subliminals about him from out of the entire movie.
karma has no deadline.
suge is getting exactly
what he’s been giving.
SUGE DID PLAY A PART IN THE NWA STORY BUT HE OWNS NO DEATHROW MATERIAL.
HE NEVER OWNED ANY NWA OR RUTHLESS MATERIAL.
YEAH THEY’LL FOCUS ON THE RUTHLESS DEATHROW BEEF.
AND THATS IT.
FIGURE THIS STORY WILL END WITH EAZY’S DEATH.
I see what kind of girls made the final cut. I guess those were the on the A list.
Ima check it out, look like it might be interested
Interesting (typo)
I never understood NWA’s appeal, guess that means I won’t be watching.
Oh cheese. You ll end up watching it. Curiosity will get the better of you when we all start talking about on here. 🙂
Nah, I’ll pass. I’m just going to read the commentary from you guys just like I did with the TLC, Aaliyah and Whitney biopics.
well you can now thank n.w.a that
every other guy on the entire planet
wants to be super thug supreme.
They took rap into another direction for the worst. For that reason alone, I will not be watching this mess.
Same with cho. 🙂
LOL, Staahhppit!!!
well you can now thank n.w.a that
every other guy on the entire planet

they’re the purveyors of that ish.
May Terry Carter rest in peace. It seems he was a sacrifice and publicity for this movie. I won’t be seeing it but only if and when it comes on tv for free. I’m not spending my hard earned money on what became the destruction of music.
This is modern day history. We should all take a look. The bogus record deal the unlawful raids the fact that the Bush Family lived in Compton at one point all has me curious.
Why does Cube and Dre look like perfect strangers riding down the block? The days of being homies are long gone.
THEY GET ALONG THEY BEEN PATCHED UP THEIR BEEFS.
DRE AND CUBE EVEN WORKED TOGETHER A few times since 94.
Last night Kendrick Lamar finally won his Grammy. I was hoping Schoolboy Q would have won too with his fine self.
His Blacker than Berry track is nice…so looking forward to the album.
They had a profound negative effect on the black community and I don’t think we can recover from it.
They were the first to glorify going to prison.
Dr. Dre donated $35 million dollars to USC. He didn’t donate a single dollar to a HBCU! Ice Cube continues to advertise and promote alcohol to the black community. DJ Yella continues to produce porn that features black women engaging in degrading sex acts. Countless numbers of young black men have been shot and killed over Dr. Dre’s overpriced headphones. With having said that, I urge all black men and women to boycott this low budget, discusting movie!
b real and cypress hill said years ago that cube promoted drugs and alcohol and never smoked or dranbk in his life.
common called him a hippocrite when he made that song the bitch in you.
since cube left jd out to dry the lench mob dissed him.
but cube’s rich they not so in the entertainment world its about whgo has more money.
tweedy bird loc when he was dissing eazy said eazy was the only legit crip in nwa and he left his real homies for 4 dudes who never gangbanged in their lives.
eazy never was a ganbanger he was a crip but he was a local drug dealer who phukkewd every crackhead slut he ran across.
nelson George researched the whole group and said only eazy had gang ties.
Always with the tweety bird. Lol
Actions speak louder than words. All black men and women boycott this movie! Let us take it a step further, do not, I repeat, DO NOT BUY those cheap Dr. Dre headphones!
pretty mediocre nothing special, hardly the biggest blockbuster of the year!!
ice cube admitted he gagnbanged or sold drugs.
dre all he was doing was being a local neighborhood dj before the wcwc days his mom even said dre barely left the bassment all he did was stay there mixing beats and playing the turntables.
mc ren was a wannabe who hung around a few thugs and started acting like them.
Within the Gangsta rap’s agenda we became niggaz, hoes, drug dealers, gang-bangers, crackheads and ultimately killers of OURSELVES (BLACK ON BLACK). They made it cool to mean mug & look like an intimidating villain. They made it soft to smile or even worse to dance. They proclaimed they weren’t down w/ that pro black shit. Our focus was diverted from a pro black positivity theme to “I gotta get mine” me me me …violence and misogyny .
Terms of endearment like my Brother /sister were replaced w/MY NIGGA/ MY BITCH(es)???. It cast a spell on us that let the “Genie out of the bottle” so to speak. It all led to us coining the PHRASE “NO SHAME” & subsequently to misuse the word “HATER”, even for those that spoke truth/wisdom. Fuck NWA , although I liked the anthem “Fuck The Police”. Steroid using Billionaire Dr Dre gave us Snoop ,50cent,The Game etc..and really helped to LEGITIMIZE and cement Eminem (The great white one). NWA helped to usher in a legacy of selling genocide to Black kids. His reign continues w/ Yg, Young Thug, Bobby Shmurda & yes even R&B singers like Chris Brown. Breezy’s generation has been raised w/ these images. When they act out the pure ignorance that the media has celebrated and indoctrinated them into, they lock them in the system. Its a trap our own helped to build….. & gay advocate Harvey Levin of TMZ will film it all.
It is true Leveler. I watched it go down blow for blow. Black men used to be scared to death of prison. By the mid nineties going to prison was a badge of honor. We have all the Gangsta rap to thank for that.
r7b singers had to start using rappers and sample old hits just to sell records.
they had to start dressing like they was from the streets when half of them wasn’t.
even janet Jackson, and Mariah carey had to end up working with rappers.
hip hop like every other genre of black music was too powerful and yes hip hop had its white imitators.
Eminem is a crazy white dudec who talks about rape, drugs, Ill kill you, f u you fags and stupid chit and yes whites can rewlate cause they’re dumb too.
white kids like to get high, and just kill their moms or do crazy chit for no reason.
all the crazy antics white cartoons do.
the simpsons, family guy, and souithpark all cussed and dealt with sex and drugs.
I heard extras were not getting paid on the Straight Outta Compton movie set. The non union extras were so pissed, they stole union vouchers and food. This low budget bullshit movie is not worth your time or money. I urge all brothers and sistas not to see this movie.
So I guess no one is too upset about the light skinned Ice Cube…but seriously why Dr. Dre looking so sickly, as if he is fresh from chemo or radiation?
I see they about to rewrite history and do everybody dirty. suge should’ve just sued. dre know he needs to be ashamed of himself. he doesn’t spread a penny around his old hood. then he going walk through like they still respect him. he look so out of place. I guess they asked snoop to help them find some people.
