at first i thought it was for a car commercial......

[L.Kizzle]

I'm torn. Don't like the guy who's playing Ice Cube
His son.
:biggums:

[andgar923]

I miss Tam's :(

It's not gonna work, tbh.

Their 'story' isn't nearly as interesting as their talents. It's just gonna be an exaggerated tale of a bunch of dudes who make it.

Watch Hoop Dreams if you want a serious look at inner-city people trying to make it. And listen to their music if you want a real taste of N.W.A.

[~primetime~]

I'll watch it on demand or something...slightly interested

there are probably some tidbits in there that I didn't know about them...

[NoGunzJustSkillz]

His son.
:biggums:
Ice Cube's son is an actor?

Show me a true story that isn't exaggerated.

Cube's son already bigger than he is...

[GOBB]

I want to check this out. Had to hide my first NWA tape from my mom.


Don't like the guy who's playing Ice Cube

How do you come to that conclusion? :rolleyes:

You can't understand the impact of N.W.A. (and other rap) unless you lived it. I was a middle-class, suburban white-boy and it changed my life. I can only imagine how minorities were affected by the music. The rap album that really did it for me was The Chronic.

The gun scene is probably them fliming a video... My guess

[the mesiah]

I think I would be more hyped up bout it if it had serious real actors like Ray,walk the Line, Ali.. Etc had..Looks to low budget for me to be looking forward to it.If it's a hot day , bored in August on Saturday in the day time I mite mite go to see it at the movies since I'm huge NWA fan ,.If not I'll just get it on bootleg.

How did NWA change your life?

[Nowitness]

I remember hearing N.W.A when they first dropped in 88. As a young black male from the streets of Compton, it empowered me. These brothers were speaking to me, made me change the way I thought and lived.

I went from taking my beatings and racial profiling as a normality and accepted reality to a solider for black power. I owe everything to N.W.A.

[tomtucker]

hope you are right.........i remember having 2 NWA t-shirts........one was black with yellow writing on the front, it said "NWA and ""suck this"....and on the back it said "**** tha police".........the other one was white and read "compton police department" on the front and then lots of printed on bullet-holes with blood oozing from them.......both front and back..:oldlol:...it was longsleeved and it said "knowledge" down one of the sleeves...impossible to even find a photo of it today......i would love to see it again

sounds like some bullshit ! ?

[Shade8780]

As a young unprivileged African-American from the streets of Compton, the N.W.A. made a huge impact on me back in my high school years. I remember me and my homies bumping Straight Outta Compton after stealing some old guy's car like it was yesterday.

It was as if I was one of them. Those nikkas taught me how to live my life. They told me not to take shit from nobody, and whether or not it cost me years of my life, I'm proud to say I was, and still am, an N.W.A. fan. I'll be seeing this with my boys on opening day.

[dazzer87]

Whats the over/under on gang shootings at theaters showing this movie? i say 4

How did NWA change your life?
I am also curious how music/art changes people's lives, never experienced it myself.


Stuff like education, business connections, friendships, love, etc obviously changes lives, but I dont understand how art changes lives. (unless of course you are the artist that made a shit ton of money off art)

How did NWA change your life?



I fell in love with rap/hip-hop at a very young age. Not necessarily the life they were portraying, but the attitude and the style and the art. I was always a good writer, but being able to write and perform (rap) gave me an amazing intellectual and emotional outlet. From the age of 16 I started doing live shows, and that continued throughout High School and College. My final two years in College I was part of a group that toured all over California, opening for popular underground groups like Living Legends and Hieroglyphics. The experiences I had on tour, the people I met, the women, the feeling of being on stage... are all priceless.


My love for rap/hip-hop, which started with groups like N.W.A., has most certainly changed my life in dramatic fashion. Unfortunately, I've lost a lot of my love for the genre as I've grown older. I still enjoy listening to old tracks for nostalgic reasons, but my musical preference has certainly mellowed over the years.

I would also add.....it changed the music industry also....

Before NWA ....most hip hop "rap" had more of a pop / comedy/ positive/watered down message....

NWA were young ( EZE was only 15 years old) they helped change the message, and the Grimy side of life became more habitual for rappers / musicians to talk about.......

NWA took what Grandmaster Flash was saying in "the message" and turned it up for everyone to hear.....then onto the next level.

whether it was real or not....

I wonder if they'll incorporate the page of reality where that piece of sh1t Dre throws Dee Barnes a beat down at a party.

My word...

[Done_And_Done]

WCWC were pretty bad.

Dre was more than eager to cut ties...

That's not necessarily true.

BDP, Kane, Public Enemy etc were all dropping hits which reflected their intense surroundings.

But you're absolutely right in saying that they changed the game. Eazy picking up the mic altered everything.

Hiphop as a culture/industry was centralized in various cities in the East Coast. If it wasn't from NY or whatever it wasn't getting respect. NWA forced peoole to expand their interests to artists from the West.
