Summary
STRAIGHT OUTTA COMPTON tells the true story of how five young cultural rebels--armed only with their lyrics, swagger, bravado and raw talent--stood up to the authorities that meant to keep them down and formed the world's most dangerous group, N.W.A. And as they spoke the truth that no one had before and exposed life in the hood, their voice ignited a social revolution that is still reverberating today.
