Watching the preview, I thought it rather bent that a protagonist objected to treatment from police for popularizing criminal culture, because he’s just tellin’ what life is there - how about NOT living that way? eh?
Yeah, they do. Buch of people here were making plans to see it opening day, racing to get tickets before they sold out. Not exactly the kind of people depicted...
Black flight? What a bunch of racists.
Racist corporations don’t wanna put no infrastructure here for us to loot.
I’ll go see this right after I vote for Hillary...
dis-invested in????
I’d like to see it. It is not kind to the rap industry.
I grew up in Lynwood in the sixties, nice place, surrounded by Watts, Compton, South Gate, used to ride my bike all the way from civic center to where they built the 105 when I was six/seven years old. The White flight started after the Watts riots with Blacks moving up and in (and doing a nice job of keeping the neighborhood up), this was followed by the Black flight and the Hispanics moving in. I was back in Lynwood a couple of years ago looking for a job, I was so hard up, sorry to say it's not maintained by the new majority anywhere near as nice as the previous two. I honestly felt more uncomfortable than when I visited decades ago and the Blacks were the new majority.
Why is anyone astounded that an area of high crime and gang infestation has little retail?
It's not safe or profitable to open a business in a place where the inhabitants play previews of Hell all day and night.
I'm sure I'll rent it from Redbox. I remember that time well. Definitely not in the theater though.
I watched this movie online last night knowing it was going to be disturbing.
It does a good job of portraying the origins of the Rap culture being founded in vile, disgusting, vulgar, despicable, criminal, drugged, violent, delinquent, revolting, profane, sickening, atrocious, nasty, offensive, crude, rude, filthy, obscene, perverted, disrespectful and miscreant behaviors.

Oh, golly wolly...

She said, my name is Maggie,
but call me Michelle.

From 1985. When it was old school at the South Central and Compton house parties. Great times.
There is only one reason why businesses don’t locate in an area. Ain’t no money in it.
They never get introspective as to why an area they live in turns into a sh1thole.
Just call the entertainment district the future crime zone district right now andget people used to it, b/c that is what its gonna be. Urban blacks just are a blight on an area, they dont upkeep anything, the ones who are great people and care, see this and get the hell out.
I like cinema desert with icing and all.
Those that support NWA and rap in general have themselves to thank for businesses leaving the area. Even the rappers leave the fools behind.
When you think about how easy it is to record rap music, since they don’t need such complicated things like melodies and harmonies. All you need is a sample of some old song to repeat over and over in the background. And some synthetic percussion. And a bunch of words that rhyme with uck ucker and itch.
