"Out of Compton" tells the story of the Compton area in the last century, where blacks were always discriminated against and treated unequal by the police. A group of music and rap talents formed the NWA band and used crude and obscene lyrics to criticize the unequal society against blacks. The most famous one is "fuck the police", which angered the police and the federal government in many places and issued warning letters. , But made them gain a greater reputation. However, because of the contractual issues between the broker and the members, the combination was disintegrated and even attacked each other. In the following period of time, everyone experienced different hard music lives. Thanks to the efforts of the lead singer of Eazy-E, the team members returned, but at this time, they were diagnosed with advanced HIV, and they have not yet completed the reorganization. The record ended in regret! NWA caused a revolutionary hiphop rap culture, attacking racial discrimination through sharp songs.

Straight Outta Compton quotes

  • [Eric is upset that Jerry had embezzled money from him]

    Eazy-E: Here's what's about to happen. I'm gonna get N.W.A back together. And you ain't gonna have nothing to do with it this time.

    Jerry Heller: Why the fuck can you even say something like that? What the fuck is going on with you, man? I know what's good for you, I know what's good for Ruthless, and we have worked up a trust after years of hard work and that trust is our foundation, Eric. I don't give a shit.

    [Eric is coughing]

    Jerry Heller: [concerned] Eric? How is it man? Are you okay?

    Eazy-E: Trust? Trust is a muthafucka!

    Jerry Heller: Is it? May I ask you something? Eric, If what I'm doing is so illegal, how come I've never been sued? If I'm such a fucking thief, such a liar, such a motherfucker, how come nobody's ever come to collect? Because this is business. And this is how it works. And it's not always pretty, no. Do I cover my own ass? Do I cover my own end? Absolutely. But don't you dare fucking tell me that I have not taken care of you. Don't you fucking tell me that I've not had your back from day one! DAY ONE!

    Eazy-E: Is this taking care of me?

    Jerry Heller: Are you fucking kidding me? It's taking care of the whole fucking thing! It's business!

    [repeating what he said earlier]

    Jerry Heller: And this is how it works. Have I covered my end? Do I cover my ass? Absolutely. But don't you dare fucking tell me that I have not taken care of you.

    Eazy-E: Is this business too?

    Jerry Heller: Yes, this is business, this is how fucked up it can get. But I didn't start this! I didn't fuck it up! You did!

    Eazy-E: No, you did. You're fired, Jerry.

    [Eric leaves Jerry's house]

  • [Eazy is in a hospital after collapsing in a recording session]

    Tomica: Aren't you gonna say something? What is it? A respiratory infection, pneumonia, what?

    Young Doctor: Yes, well, it is those things and more, I'm afraid. We ran a full blood battery and... I'm sorry, Mr. Wright, but you've tested positive for HIV.

    Eazy-E: Get the fuck outta here.

    Tomica: What?

    Young Doctor: The normal T-cell count is anywhere between 500 and 1500. Right now, your T-cell count is 14.

    Eazy-E: But I ain't no faggot.

    Young Doctor: No, Mr. Wright, actually the virus can be transmitted in quite a few ways, including unprotected heterosexual sex.

    Eazy-E: That's wrong. You... you gotta test that again. Test that again.

    Young Doctor: We've run the test five times, with five different samples, and the results remain.

    Tomica: Shit!

    [Tomica storms out of the room]

    Eazy-E: She's pregnant, Doc! What does this mean?

    Young Doctor: It doesn't necessarily mean that she's contracted the virus, but... we'll have to test her, to be sure.

    Eazy-E: So what do we do? When do we start the the treatment? I mean, what... I gotta get healthy, I got things to do. I got... What's we supposed to do?

    Young Doctor: Mr. Wright, you need to understand that you are very, very sick.

    Eazy-E: But I don't even feel that bad Doc, don't tell me that.

    Young Doctor: With care, and palliative care, we can probably keep you comfortable for... maybe six months, at the very most.

    [by this time, Eazy is in a deep panic and is beginning to cry]

    Eazy-E: Comfortable? What do you mean comfortable?

    Young Doctor: It's just a matter of time. I am, I am truly, truly sorry, Mr. Wright. I'll leave you time to process this.

    [the doctor leaves the room, leaving Eazy helpless as he cries]
