Suge said Dre got a W tatted on each of his butt cheeks.
I talked to some younger cats I know that seen it, that aren't old enough to remember NWA.
Three things happened after that discussion:
1. I bust out laughing at how ridiculous the movie was. Like the scene above.
2. I immediately lost all interest in watching it. The sheer amount of was too much for me.
3. I had to school them on what really happened.
Dre is a legend but a certified clown for this shyt. Especially for trying to make it seem like Eazy was broke. One of the biggest hoe moves in rap history.

If you’ve seen the Temptations miniseries that comes on all the time, Straight Outta Compton shouldn’t be much of a stretch.Cube had A LOT to do with the way Eazy was portrayed. He's still salty at him for some dumb ass reason. The man is dead. Talking about in one interview that "he went light" on the way Eazy was portrayed. I'm like and Tomika signed off on that shyt?
History is always told from the view of the victors....but this time, we were alive to know the truth and Cube and Dre were wrong for that shyt.
that Bone tape on Ez's deathbed..... I just hit the
as my wife was watching it. I dipped out midway too. Still haven't seen all of it.
When he knocked out those two bloods I walked out the theater like @track 1
Right, unless the bloods were some chicks he had relations with, Dre wasn't knocking out shyt.
dre tryna flex like he freestyles
How can he be broke when he had the hottest group at the time and was getting paid from DreFirst half of the movie, though not flawless, was VERY good. You have to allow some form of creative license with all biopics and in a way I was happy that Cube & Dre got to have a say so over how their legacies were portrayed. Thats always better than some white people having full creative control.
But the second half got silly as hell making Dre this superhero. NOBODY who is even a little familiar with Dr Dre and his history believed for one second that he was whooping nikkas asses in front of Suge while Suge was just like
Also portraying Eazy as broke wasn’t cool at all. I even had to go back and recheck and ask Coli brehs for fact checks JUST to make sure I wasn’t crazy because i KNEW Eazy wasn’t broke when he died.
All in all its a good movie if you just aside your Hip Hop knowledge and look at it not like a biopic but a “Based on a true story” type of flick

It's still a good watch, if you watch it as a fantasy loosely based on true events.
