Review of Straight Outta Compton (2015) by Wigwam69 — 04 Oct 2015

Rap music is done by people who can't sing, write lyrics, or play an instrument . This movie glosses over the racism of N.W.A., particularly towards Koreans, and tries to lionize them as courageous civil rights heroes being held down by the white man.

The reality of N.W.A. is that they were a group who conveyed an image of toughness and rebellion to rake in the money from their gullible fans who had no idea the group was faking it. Like modern rap today, it's all an act that's used to glorify criminal activity.
