NWA Movie


The screenwriter of World Trade Center will pen Straight Outta Compton, an upcoming biopic about infamous rap group N.W.A.

For those unaware, N.W.A. was a group formed in Compton, California, by late rapper Eazy-E in the 1980s. The band eventually counted amongst its ranks such individuals as Dr. Dre, MC Ren, and rapper-turned-actor Ice Cube. The band – which attracted accusations of anti-Semitism, homophobia, misogyny, and pro-violence from its critics – broke up in the early 1990s following internal fighting over royalty disputes and related personal issues. Following the tragic AIDS-related death of founder Eazy E, the group members eventually reconciled in public over their troubled past together.

The question i have is will this film be pushed towards the african-american movie, or everyone because, sadley, that may depend on how good the film is. Im still a little worried that a production company might consider putting money towards the project. Who knows, this could end up being a really great film.....maybe....
