It’ll probably do more than that but we know when its a predominately black cast they always trying to low ball it and not showing it on enough screens. Shout out to CUBE, REN, YELLA, DRE & F. GARY GRAY.
Yawn, try removing that chip from your shoulder.
Try and remove that gold spoon (supplied by our labor) from your mouth.
To yall that dont know, this whole project was kendricks brainchild, including the Dre album..
It was Cubes idea he’s being trying to do this for years
Kendrick’s idea lmfao
I’ll see if I can find an old interview but Cube has been talking about making this movie for year…like over 5 or 6 for sure. Before I even heard Kendrick Lamar.
Speaking of the album, I’m bumping it right now and it’s dope as ….
Can’t wait to check this out. Man I hope this is better than that shitty Biggie movie that came out. Mad respect for Biggie, but that movie sucked bad.
Seen it and it’s a bit weak. The guy that they got to play Eazy-E is a clown. Same for the guy that plays Ren. + I expected much more. The story leaves out so much. This movie was hyped up way too much to come so short.
What did they leave out? You ca
What important was left out?
Who got the torrent to this shit yo?
best movie to come out in a long time. Props to Ice Cube and all of N.W.A.
