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.
This was a great biographical movie. You have to value the validity of it all since Dre and Ice Cube produced it too. I totally forgot how much of this I remembered from back in the day. The feuding and the listening to each other's albums taking shots at each other was so weird because you always imagined that stuff like that was happening and then you actually saw it play out.
This was a great watch - especially for someone who was into that kind of music or followed all the back and forth drama from back then.
