No disrespect cuz I don't know u but bruh

You sound so lost with that :snoop:

You might be able to listen to *insert gangster rapper* and lead a productive life, but impressionable minds from under privileged areas where the content of rap is actually a way of life e.g. drugs, gangs etc see rap music as a blueprint for a way of life.

The truth will always offend the people, word to X.

Does it have the Arabian Prince on it lol?

Does it show Ice Cube in the Nation of Islam? Any mentions of Farrakhan, Khalid Muhammad?

I think I remember Arabian Prince being mentioned and yes, it shows Cube in the Nation of Islam.

I read somewhere that this movie makes Eazy-e look really bad. Like a "disloyal c*nt that comes to his senses right before he dies" i think that was the quote. And that it makes Dr. Dre look like the shyt. It's bad enough they made his fat ass look skinny lol. And hearing that makes me not want to see this movie at all. I hated the fact that Tomica Wright was the only one representing Eazy's side of the story. Tell me that shyt ain't true because i've been waiting for his story to be told for a long time.

just watch it, put together your own opinion and post it here.

@Carr why they shytting on MC Ren so much as if he wasnt a HUGE part of this group... cutting him out of covers, barely showing him, not even mentioning him in the intro of all the members on the trailer...

I agree, he was an important part of the group. They did have a scene when Eazy let everyone know they didnt need cube because Ren could spit just as good if not better.

As far as the marketing goes, Ren was an important part of the group but he didnt transcend into a superhero in hip-hop they way Cube/Dre did so I could see why this is more a Cube/Dre origin story than anything. Look at the poster and who is in the front and who is in the background.
