This is what hip hop has become?? These Ns really risked it all to tell the truth about what was goin on... As I always say when we get on the convos of"who's real/fake" you have to realize that hip hop artists are a representation of a group/s of people... They shed light on what's goin onin a certain city/state/block/etc... What NWA did was open the floodgates for cats to basically put the ills of soceity on blast... It wasn't the firsttime its been done by any means, but they took it to the next level with it... They were sayin some WILD @#@!

Man dudes were getting jacked for ANY starter jacket. That Seahawks joint was tough.

That was the beauty of the music back then. We didnt have no internet, but I remember the first time I heard this album and thinking they gothrough the same **$* out there that we do over here. Back when rap was like OUR cnn.

True story: back in the 7th grade, I spit Cube's verse form "Straight Outta..." at a school dance and switched Compton with Corona and N_'sswore I wrote it.

"You are now about to witness the strength of street knowledge..."

N.W.A is my +%+%.

Production wise it was better but overall Straight outta Compton is the better album. Man Cube was the heart of NWA as fas as rapping goes
