In 1987, five young men, using brutally honest rhymes and hardcore beats, put their frustration and anger about life in the most dangerous place in America into the most powerful weapon they had: their music. Taking us back to where it all began, Straight Outta Compton tells the true story of how these cultural rebels—armed only with their lyrics, swagger, bravado and raw talent—stood up to the authorities that meant to keep them down and formed the world’s most dangerous group, N.W.A. And as they spoke the truth that no one had before and exposed life in the hood, their voice ignited a social revolution that is still reverberating today.

A fantastic dramatization of the formation of NWA and the early years of West Coast rap music. Everything about this movie is fantastic from the casting to the acting, story, direction, and music. This movie should not be missed if either a fan of rap music or movies in general.

Inspirational movie about young hip hop artists trying to pursue the American dream despite all the adversity they face. Brutally honest and sheds light into the hardships of young musicians who are not taken seriously and discriminated against. Really good actors and a good plot line.
