Black Eye For Rap Culture

Rating: 7/10 (31 August 2015)

I think the sins of the various police departments across the nation are getting pretty well documented. That said, I have rarely seen a more thuggish, criminal and misogynistic portrayal of rap culture. Women have NO role in NWA beyond being sex toys. Dr Dre is portrayed as the good guy in all the chaos of cheating managers and out of control band members. That white hat portrayal is spoiled, however, by his motivations for cutting ties with the criminal elements around him. His motivation was that they were stealing from him, not that they were criminals. Had they not stolen from him, he was happy as a clam to be surrounded by criminals and thugs. But now he's a multi-billionaire "legit" Apple employee...wink, wink.
