Straight Outta Compton

So I'm sitting at my desk and my roommate goes, "soooooo NWA is going to have a movie written by Berloff."  A movie buff herself, she got pumped, as did I. Andrea Berloff, the writer from Oliver Stone's World Trade Center, has taken on the provoking and tenitive project Straight Outta Compton, a movie about early 90's west coast rap group NWA. Considered the pioneers of gangster rap, NWA has fucked the police straight from the underground with jerry curls and beepers since 1989. Ice Cube, the rapper turned actor, was the first to leave the group and has agreed to produce the movie. The NWA movie has been in talks for a little over a year now but the band wagon seems to be rolling along now that critically acclaimed writer Berloff has decided to work on it. Will hip hop fans be delighted or just straight disappointed? The late Eazy-E's character portrayal will deffinitely be under the spotlight and whether Dre will act his role is still in the works. I'll keep you posted but until then...
