90% of the work is already done when you look like a carbon copy of the person you're going to play and on top of that you've lived most of your life with that person.
True but we can't downplay his acting, just because you look like someone you're playing you still have to be convincing enough in your performance to entertain the audience with your portrayal,
I love the inception of him as his dad referencing himself as the kid he had on the way! It gets me every time! Or the bye Felicia loop, which came first, Felicia or Ice remembering it and writing it down for his movie 😂😂 I hope I never find out my brain likes the loop😂
@@Sunny-sc5vqEhhh, you could say that if he was playing his father when he was already alive. He knows his father as his father, he is playing Ice the rapper. He has more to work with sure, but it's still an incredible performance.
Oscar nominations are not a participation trophy. If that scene made you tear up, then it was because of the writing, and they got an oscar nomination for the writing.
@@sugarbomb1346no he used it right. Plus he has a point, the right actor can take a script and make it so much better, but a trash actor could take the best script, and still have it coming out trash. You didn’t take that into account, and by definition, you were ignorant, maybe you don’t know what it means tho king 🙏🏽💯
53:16 after the Rodney King police beating and the LA riots in 92 began the crips and bloods peace treaty which inadvertently caused a lot of people who wouldn't have worked together before to start linking up. For example, Suge being a blood and dogg pound being crips
Cube did destroy the office at Priority, but the president of the company stepped in and made the charges go away. A part thats overlooked is the cube as he's walking out the office, which is the logo for Cube Vision, Ice Cube's company. That encounter encouraged him to launch his own and being mentored while in NY from Chuck D of Public Enemy motivated him to create his own brand.
i will die on this hill, if rami malek can get nominated and win for bohemian rhapsody, then I see absolutely no reason why O’Shea Jackson Jr. & Taron Egerton couldn’t win for there work, taron got hoed but obviously the main topic rn is O’Shea, it’s ridiculous, i will never, ever get over the academy’s disrespect to the actors of this film, everyone of them were amazing.
I remember seeing this movie in the theater and by the time Ice Cube's No Vaseline came out during the scene where Cube dissed the NWA members, some people in my theater were either dancing in their seats or even sing along to the song quietly, it was glorious 😂 Still one of the greatest disstrack ever, Cube is a hip hop 🐐
The scene where ice cube is writing a script that is actually his movie friday and apparently ice cube acting has gotten better than ever, plus eazy e son is still alive today
My only problem with this movie is they purposely left out the First Lady of N.W.A., Michel'le. And they did that to make Dre look good, covering up the abuse he done to her.
The guy that confronted Jerry at his home is former NFL running back turned actor Thomas Jones. He was in the 1st season of Luke Cage and played Shade's former cellmate
People cry "Police Brutality" if a cop hands a ticket to then a little too rough. 99% of the videos being passed off as "police brutality" shows people fighting the police, running away, pulling a gun or speeding off.
@@sugarbomb1346 nice random statistics you made up, any ATTEMPT at a violation of my rights wether I am aware of them or not is police brutality. Asking for my ID when I e done nothing wrong JUST to run my name is a violation if you don't know your rights (which is an abuse of power), and when one senses this but doesn't have the knowledge to articulate what's being done to them THEN it usually turns into "Police Brutality" ANY unwanted touch can be assault, stopping my movements constitutes a detainment and if there is no REASONABLE ARTICULABLE SUSPICION you are UNLAWFULLY arresting me and in MOST STATES I have the right to refuse such as long as I don't exceed the force being applied to me. So what you claim to see is just what you're exhibiting now ignorance to the facts and laws.
@@sugarbomb1346 na you have nothing of value to say. Your point wasn't proven who you are was. For you to call violations of civil rights "little inconveniences" says all anybody needs to know about you and your character. Thank you for hiding behind the Internet because you wouldn't have these opinions openly.
To answer your question Dre got out of the contract by paying Eazy. There was a settlement that gave eazy a percentage of "The Chronic" album sales along with a cash payment.
1:21:50 There is a great documentary series the takes a deep dive into their life’s and how the grow and the impact they have on the music business today. The series is called the The Defiant Ones I truly recommend watching it!!!!! They also show some parts of when this movie was being filmed.
The real story about F the police as told by ice cube and Eazy was they were out driving around shooting people with paintballs and the cops pulled them over. They messed with them but let them go because they were shooting paintballs and not real guns. Right after they went back to the studio and made the song. But it looks better for the movie if they were just standing infront of the studio and the cops messed with them.
8:09 yeah back then them gangs didn't play...quick story...when I was a kid walking home from school I had on a pair of brand new blue suede Adidas my dad bought me. I walked through Bryanhurst Ave. in L.A. everyday not knowing it was Blood neighborhood. One day some Bloods were on a porch shooting dice and they stopped me walking and one of em picked me up while the other one took my shoes off and they made me walk the rest of the way home in my socks. I was about 8 years old then. A little trivia for you: That's a recorded scratch sample from DJ Jazzy Jeff (DJ Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince) on the scene where Cube walks in on Dre scratching on the turntable. He did it just for this movie. At 45:10 during that beating the bar scene of the movie Terminator 2 was being filmed.
Check out the Serena and Venus Williams Biopic about them growing up in Compton playing tennis. King Richard. Will Smith won an Oscar for his roll and slapped Chris Rock the same night.
Another movie event y'all need to watch is The New Edition Story. Keith Powers who is playing as Dre's little brother is in it as the adult Ronnie DeVoe.
Being there to see the rise of NWA was an experience. I got to see one of the first concerts they did for the Chronic tour. They told the crowd to “throw your blunts up, we trying to get high.” They went through sweeping joints and blunts with a push broom . One of the greatest concerts I’ve been to to this day. (Nas and Mary J is up there. Onyx live was 🔥).
Man, I remember watching this opening night. The theatre was HYPED. I'm sure it takes many creative liberties and glosses over certain details like any biopic, but there was something so cool about watching a biopic about more (for lack of a better term) "recent" artists that I actually grew up on. I always loved the first half of the movie; it really does play like a superhero team-up movie, where we're one-by-one introduced to the key members, seeing their skill sets (DJing, rapping, writing, producing, etc), and seeing the why and how they get together. Considering this came out the same year as "Age of Ultron", I remember telling my buddies at the time: "This is the best superhero movie of the year." LOL. The actual recording scenes were so well done and full of energy; everyone in the theatre was either bopping their heads or rapping along. The second half does feel more like the conventional biopic, where it feels like they're kinda checking off the different notable moments of the group's history, but it's still hella engaging. Pleasantly surprised to see you guys reacting to this one. Love this flick.
My father is a huge NWA fan so we went to see this in theaters.. the entire theater was rapping along 😊 good times. Fave NWA song is Dopeman for sure ❤
Regarding Dre and his brother, Dre made a song called "The Message" on his 2001 album. It's a very emotional and touching song dedicated to Tyree, one of my personal favourite Dre songs
YES, ICE CUBE REALLY TOOK A BAT & SMASHED UP THE OFFICE. Can't believe you've never heard "NO VASELINE". It's one of the best diss tracks in hip hop history. Also, Suge Knight was rumored to be extremely violent. Because of their contracts, some R&B groups were on his label for a short time. They don't discuss that time TO THIS DAY.
Dr Dre never confronted Suge Knight or told him he was leaving Deathrow. Dr Dre just disappeared without telling Suge he was leaving. Suge showed up at Dr Dre’s house and took the master recordings.
LAPD was corrupt as hell back then. False arrests, planting evidence, all kinds of shit. No Vaseline - one of the best diss tracks ever made. Worthy of its own side listening. Boyz In The Hood is a must watch. Dre never did get to say goodbye to Eazy. Part of the reason at the end of "I Need a Doctor" he goes to visit his grave as a tribute.
20:32 yeah cube used to be in a group called CIA - criminals in action They stayed cool and were brought in later on the label after the group disbanded for other things
@@billbill6094 Because he ain't apart of the story? Dre is supposed to be a DJ too but he already did his job by being one of the executive producers and had all his real music in the movie.
As a biopic, this is a better done one for me, not as formulaic in style. The colorist casting call for the women in this movie was an ick but that's why I also really encourage people to watch Surviving Compton which was like Michele's film response to this movie!
No one mentioned that before NWA, Dre & Yella were doing some androgyny electronica rap complete with eyeliners sparkly suits in World Class Wrecking Cru? NWA came to be because Alonso merged his two groups World Class Wrecking Cru that had Yella & Dre with Cru in Action that had Ice Cube in it.
I completely agree with Aaron with wanting more as far as their backstories. I felt like they only showed behind the scenes of pivotal points in their career that the publicly is, for the most part, familiar with. The film has a production budget of about $28-$50mil. I think if it had a larger budget maybe they could’ve spent more time on the things that we don’t know like person struggles and more in depth problems with the group. We definitely should’ve gotten a look into MC Ren and DJ Yella’s backstories. Ps. Took a screenshot of Aaron’s face at 1:19:09 you’re my new fav meme 🫡😂😂
24:26 fun fact, at that time until the late nineties, no we weren't allowed to be outside. Curfews and 3 or more people dressed alike were automatically "gang activity"
I’m convinced these guys know when I rewatch a film rewatched the gentleman 2 weeks ago boom the gentleman i rewatched straight outta Compton last night and boom here we are
The "hood" theory has always been that Suge had one of his ex con friends, that was AIDS positive to rape Eazy. All the members have never flat out denied this. But I do think it's interesting how both Dre n Cube n Eazy's wife include that scene in the movie.
I would highly recommend you also check out the biopic All Eyez On Me, which came out two years later, which focused on the story of Tupac Shakur. Much like this it is a powerful and frequently downright FASCINATING portrait of an incredibly talented, frequently EXTREMELY controversial musical artist, and the lead, Demetrius Shipp Jr, is genuinely ON FIRE throughout (as well as looking almost UNCANNILY like Pac himself, which definitely helped).
I remember going to Hastings in Winsor Park Mall when The Death Certificate came out they had No Vaseline playing on repeat. The Sam Goody's up stairs was doing the same with the whole album, that end of the mall was bumpin' that day.
Yes, it's documented, Cube went in with a gang(LENCH MOB) and a bat, and did exactly what you see in this movie. And by night he was at a big dinner with the executives getting his check.
In the 90s Ice T, "Finn" for 25yrs on Law and Order had a band called Body Count and had a song called 'Cop Killer' - that went over well in performances with the cops...
To charge yes, but to hold under suspicion no the cops can especially back then claim that they had suspicion and held the suspects without charge for the 24 hours.

Fun fact: Cube did actually do this. He walked into his reps office, destroyed it with a bat, and walked out with a check.
The only difference is that when Cube went in the office, Brian was just getting out of the bathroom.
And the next time Cube went to the studio, they had reinstalled bulletproof glass.
@@MrBluntDaily and they had to get buzzed in and checked for anything
@@IsraelBurns-l4h and then they had to get male strippers to twerk

Oscar nominations are not a participation trophy. If that scene made you tear up, then it was because of the writing, and they got an oscar nomination for the writing.

It be like that sometimes. The WS know all about breaking treaties 🤷🏽♂️
Crazy how suge knight threw away such a crazy life, went from playing in the NFL to owning death row records, now sits in prison
As awful as he was he deserves a biopic of his own
What's crazy is he is in jail for murdering a dude while leaving the set of this movie. He ran him over with his truck
When the fuck was he in the NFL? I just found this out!

Some of the facts are wrong (Eazy wasn’t broke) but as a movie it does a good job showing why a group like this made a major impact on the industry.
they never said easy was broke in the movie he literally provides the funds for the group to use the studio
@@gbear0385I think he means before his death
@@trev9168still never said he was broke. But he did have to downgrade houses and sell a couple of cars so he didnt become broke. E died a millionaire
It never said he was broke what you on about??
He was never broke he discovered Bone thugs
Eazy e in the hospital scene always makes me cry . Rest in peace to Eric, true legend. Helped shape the rap game .
You gotta remember there were no bodycams in those days so no proof of police abuse. The radio DJ introducing NWA was F. Gary Gray the director.

No Vaseline is one of the top diss tracks EVER. No one was safe. Also as they say, Easy E put Compton on the map!

Casting for this movie was excellent IMO
“BOYZ N THE HOOD”! AND “Don’t be a Menace to South Central While Drinking Your Juice in the Hood. 😂

I would highly recommend you also check out the biopic All Eyez On Me, which came out two years later, which focused on the story of Tupac Shakur. Much like this it is a powerful and frequently downright FASCINATING portrait of an incredibly talented, frequently EXTREMELY controversial musical artist, and the lead, Demetrius Shipp Jr, is genuinely ON FIRE throughout (as well as looking almost UNCANNILY like Pac himself, which definitely helped).
40:34 Ice Cube wreaking the records office 😮.
I remember going to Hastings in Winsor Park Mall when The Death Certificate came out they had No Vaseline playing on repeat. The Sam Goody's up stairs was doing the same with the whole album, that end of the mall was bumpin' that day.
40:46 that baby is O’Shea Jr😂
For No Vaseline,
Ice Cube was so pissed off, that he did the whole song in one take.
Yes, it's documented, Cube went in with a gang(LENCH MOB) and a bat, and did exactly what you see in this movie. And by night he was at a big dinner with the executives getting his check.
17:35 JJ Fad were the first artists on ruthless
50:27 Ice Cube’s infamous interview.
35:49 the shock in his face throughout this reaction makes me chuckle
This movie was so fucking legendary when it came out😭😭 whole theatre was jumping!!
F Gary Gray made a cameo as the radio DJ 😊 and did y'all catch Eazy E also discovered Bone Thugs n Harmony.
What a pleasant surprise, this is one of my favorite movies of all time❤️🔥
Floridian here. You should visit Miami but living in Miami is pure hell just moved to GA 4 days ago
In the 90s Ice T, "Finn" for 25yrs on Law and Order had a band called Body Count and had a song called 'Cop Killer' - that went over well in performances with the cops...
54:59 2Pac was in jail when Eazy E died and didn't record California love until after
1:01:00 this is also historically inaccurate. Bone thugs had already dropped in 94 and Eazy died in 95
The fact that there was a Real Genius reference is the reason why i liked this vid!
Vaseline is considered one of the greatest diss tracks of all time.
To charge yes, but to hold under suspicion no the cops can especially back then claim that they had suspicion and held the suspects without charge for the 24 hours.
Easy E became the Flash when One-time came with that battering ram
