      black music

      The superpowers of the 1980s had many hidden dangers in them. One of these hidden dangers is racism. It is in this context that the rise of black hip-hop rap music. I don't know if the protagonist in it really exists in the history of American music. However, the film is a direct and obvious representation of police violence, sex, and drugs in American society. There are lots of shots of naked women. It captures the hardships of becoming famous and cooperating with singers, and there is no...

      nigga with a view

      To be honest, the first time I heard about this group was from GTA:SA. I heard that the original shape of the characters in it is NWA members, the original shape of the protagonist CJ is dre, the original shape of brother sweet is ice cube, and the original shape of ryder is easy.e . Among them, ice cube knew before, which one of his "You How We Do It" I liked very much. It sounded an unusual sense of loneliness. Now I understand this feeling better after watching this movie.

      hey yo!

      The overall feeling is a mediocre biopic, but in fact, every point has been given, the play is complete, there are no major flaws, and every scene is arranged just right. , you can feel the restraint and calmness of the screenwriter. It is a pity that I have not seen the transcendence of the characters themselves, which may also be a relationship of respect for facts. Therefore, in the choice of biopics, I will prefer characters who have a more ups and downs history and surpass themselves at...

      Afterthought

      1. The high-definition resources are out, and the subtitles are translated in general, but fortunately, it’s not as good as the translation of an "easy-going E" many years ago.

      2. When I went to the icecube to find a haller, my friends who lived together obviously couldn’t stand it anymore. I said what’s wrong. He said that what their boss said to them was surprisingly consistent with the movie. Oh, by the way, he is also a music company making music.

      3. Later Cube...

      Five black people, it was unclear who was who, fortunately, it mainly tells about three characters. The origin of American rap music and racial discrimination in the United States are all involved, but I always feel that the key points are not mentioned, such as whether the Jewish agents are greedy for money, such as the contradictions that their splitting and closing feelings do not mention the key points, and the real I think black people are stupid and...

    Behind the scenes

    The original script had scenes of Dr. Dre and Eminem, and the crew also invited the "Fault in the Stars" actor Ansel Elgert to star in Eminem, but this scene was deleted after the script was changed.
    Among the main actors in the film, the actor O'Shera Jackson Jr. who plays Ice Cube is the son of Cube himself, and the other main actors are selected through public audits.
    The crew invited "Fantastic Four 2015" actor Michael B. Jordan to...

    Movie quotes

    • Jerry Heller: [Ice Cube enters a dimly lit room] Good to see you, Cube

      Ice Cube: I can barely see you, Jerry. What's with all the Godfather shit?

      Jerry Heller: [chuckles] Okay. I know that you've been very eager to sign a contract with Eric's company, Ruthless Records

      [hands Cube the contract]

      Ice Cube: Eric's company... ain't it your company, too?

      Jerry Heller: That's incorrect. It's not my company. I work for you.

      Ice Cube: You work for me?

      Jerry Heller: Uh-huh. I've made that clear from the beginning

      Ice Cube: All right, cool. So I can take this to a lawyer or something, right?

      Jerry Heller: Cube, those guys are paid to make trouble. They're gonna create problems, where no problems exist.

      Ice Cube: Jerry you know I don't know what none of this legal shit means! All right, none of us do. So we gonna need a lawyer before we sign anything.

      Jerry Heller: Everybody else has already signed. I thought you knew this. You're the only one who hasn't.

      [Cube shuffles through the contract, somewhat stunned]

      Jerry Heller: There's also this...

      [presents Cube with a check]

      Jerry Heller: $75,000.

      [retreats the check as Cube reaches for it]

      Jerry Heller: Sign the contract, and all this money is yours.

      Ice Cube: That's my money anyway, Jerry! I earned that money! Now I wrote a lot of hit songs. We've been on this tour for months, selling out shows, selling records. I know it's plenty of money!

      Jerry Heller: Really?

      [chuckles]

      Jerry Heller: Jesus Christ.

      Ice Cube: Gimme my money, Jerry.

      Jerry Heller: How the hell do you think this works? How the hell do you think all of this gets paid for? The hotel rooms, the tour buses, security, the parties, all this shit. How do you think it gets paid for, you think it's free?

      Ice Cube: Why are you doing this now? If we were so good, why didn't you give us contracts in the beginning?

      Jerry Heller: Because nothing is a sure thing, Cube. Even a great talent can crash and burn. Too much ego, too much excess, too many expectations. It tends to ruin things. You oughta keep that in mind.

      [Jerry and Cube tensely glare at each other]

      Ice Cube: This Eric's company, right? Bye Jerry

      [tosses contract on the table]

      Ice Cube: I'm out.

    • Bryan Turner: So you're leaving the group?

      Ice Cube: Yeah, I'm through with the bullshit! Eazy put everything on Jerry, Jerry put everything on Eazy. It's a two-man show up there, ain't no fuckin' group.

      Bryan Turner: I get that, but I need you to understand that you are walking away from a winning situation. Now how do you feel about this Kim, do you think he's making a mistake?

      Ice Cube: A mistake?

      Bryan Turner: Yes!

      Kim: I don't think so. I mean, after hearing all the stuff that he went through, I would've left too.

      Bryan Turner: Look, Cube I want you to express yourself. And I'm your biggest fan, I believe in you, but... I just want you to know that there is not a lot of money in this solo play. But if the first album hits, I will make it up to you on the second.

      Ice Cube: [gets up, shakes hands with Bryan] Be ready, Bryan. This record's comin' in fast.

    • Eazy-E: [monologue plays of Cube recording "The Nigga Ya Love To Hate" off his hit record, "AmeriKKKas' Most Wanted" and Dre nodding his head to it as he drives into Eazy's Wild n' Wet Party]

      [concerned]

      Eazy-E: You know Cube's record is in the Top 20 Billboard right now? Our shit never been up there. He blowin the fuck up, Jerry.

      Jerry Heller: It's gonna be fine, Eric. It's not just N.W.A anymore, it's our whole Ruthless roster. We got D.O.C., we got Michel'le, we got Above The Law, we're moving up to the next level. You know what, sit down for two seconds.

      Eazy-E: Look, we need to keep Dre happy

      Jerry Heller: Yeah. Look at him, you think he needs any more motivation than that?

      Eazy-E: I mean, I get it Jerry. He drownin in pussy and shit, but that don't mean that he...

      Jerry Heller: You-you worry too much. Stop okay?

      Eazy-E: Yeah, all right.

      Jerry Heller: Here, sign some checks.

      Eazy-E: Right now, Jerry? Oh c'mon!

      Jerry Heller: Yes, right now, you're gonna be outta your mind later, do it now. Y'know, the fact is Ren is as good of a writer as Cube, maybe even better. They got everything covered.

      [points to contract]

      Jerry Heller: Just the last one. Okay?

      Eazy-E: Yeah. We finished here, Jerry?

      Jerry Heller: We're finished.

      Eazy-E: Good. I'm about to go fuck.

      [sighs]

      Eazy-E: All right?

      Jerry Heller: Yeah.

      [cut to monologue of Suge approaching Dr. Dre & D.O.C and briefly conversating while glaring at Jerry, much to Jerry's concern & disdain]
