Of course, in bringing Roxanne Roxanne to the screen, a chief concern was getting the music right, which writer/director Michael Larnell accomplished with the help of rapper and record producer RZA. “RZA is the man. He’s cool, man. It was great. I met with him several times, and went to different houses of his and just sat down with him and talked about what I had in mind for the music,” said Larnell, who came to Sundance in 2015 with Cronies, his feature debut from executive producer Spike Lee. “[RZA] brought different beats and different tones, and different drum machines of the era that we played with to give it a feel.”

Roxanne Shante was one of the first female rappers, if they handle it right it could be a really good movie. I wonder if they are going to go into the thing she had with Big Daddy Kane and uproar she caused when she claimed to have a PHD in psychology.

I'll watch it just because I'm a fan of old school hiphop but I must say they're getting outta hand wit some of these biopics

What's next the Tone Loc story?


Exactly...shyt is getting redundant...

Plus Roxanne Shante relied on GHOSTWRITERS

she ain't worthy of a MOVIE
