Powerful

Rating: 8/10 (1 November 2015)

I grew up between Spain and Paris, but NWA was too hard to ignore even in a country where we did not fully understand the lyrics of their songs. We used to listen to their music with tapes and copy their dressing style, but with very little taste. As I look back now, I don't think we could have been tackier if we had tried.
About the movieÂ… It's hard to tell how much the director stuck to the real story of what went down in Compton in those years, but either way, I choose to believe it was like we see in the movie. The powerful force of rap music carving a hole into the roots of society at a time when police brutality was questioned more than ever. A group of guys who grew up with nothing and ended up being listened by millions. You can feel the power of their music, their passion and their message. All made for a great movie that I thoroughly enjoyed.
The story is still on going for some of them. Dr Dre is the one who succeeded the most, no wonder he gets to be the one that gets the last scene.
Watch it! You won't be disappointed.
