Ice Cube has become a mogul with successful accomplishments in both music and television and now he’s setting his sights firmly on his next film project— bringing the story of his musical roots to the big screen.

“I’m trying to get the N.W.A movie made. I want to get a good script together and find a director. The movie is gonna cover how we got together, how we broke up and what happened after that,” says Ice Cube. And while he says he’s not  yet sure who will play members of the iconic 80s rap group, Cube says he’s already has clear vision on how the movie will begin and end.

“The bookmarks for the movie will be when [Dr.] Dre started DJing for his Momma doing house parties up to Easy’s [E] death. There’s no reason to go after that.”—Ronke Idowu Reeves

So what do you think? Will you pay to see Cubevision's take on how Niggaz With Attitudes came to be?

cant wait

i can see this being absolutely horrible to mediocre and corny

[C-BLUE]

Ice Cube is THE worst filmmaker in Hollywood. I see this as being absolutely horrible and a goddamn disrespect to the OG.

[Blasphemy]

Well he's only written basically 4 and 1 of them was the Players Club (That and Straight Outta L.A. are the only ones directed). Honestly aside from him picking roles in movies which are crappy, He's done Alright (The 2 main faulty fuck ups would be the Are we There Yet series).


When it comes to the Gritty shit, he seems to do alright.

Honestly I'd prefer it to be like 8-Mile, gritty. My worse fears that the movie takes after or resembling any of the following: Get Rich, Notorious.

Anything Washed down would be utter bullshit. If they want to be successful make it realistic. Don't make it about some "we can change the world" bullshit that Notorious did.


Seriously Notorious sucked major ass. They have biggie say "if we gonna change the world, we gotta change ourselves" and what follows is nothing more then a Montage of Sex, Drugs, Violence against his Wife, Disses. lol Seriously what a fucking failure. I mean it was so god damn Generic.


The N.W.A Movie can't afford a generic type of deal. None of em expected N.W.A to be this big of a deal or anything that came after words (Death Row, The Chronic, G-Funk Era for example).


lol honestly what I really hope is they have it Realistic, they don't portray Ice Cube, Dr. Dre, DJ Yella as some super Gangsters given there past. More so I'd want them 2 show there Original roots and to there ORIGINAL Album.


Seriously, these niggaz were gonna rule the rap game, help define the West Coast Rap style and look and in that picture they don't look like anything u'd see on the shit that made em succesfull (nearly what 1 year later lol).

lol I mean wouldn't u want 2 actually see how they were BEFORE the N.W.A and shit influnced that shit. They stated in multiple interviews, they weren't the bangers, Didn't drink 40oz (like pictured above), or do any of that shit. I mean all they did was copy the gangster life style.

just my thoughts though. Honestly It could go either way.

I think that picture was taken in '87 or '88. This was before NWA even blew up. But there was only two bangers from that group, Ren and Eazy. The rest never did any dirt.

Yes Ren did bang. Even Tweed will tell you that

[Blasphemy]

^Yeah I know it was before, infact wasn't it talked about that it was a Bootleg from there original record company (Mocola or some shit). That they took the 4 Demo N.W.A songs: Boyz in the Hood, Dopeman, The Panic Zone (I think they said this was there first song, as the group was forming), and 8-Ball with the songs from a completely unrelated group (Fila Fresh krew).


IMO this right here is N.W.A at it's realest. All them dressing how they usually would, before they decided to wear the Group Uniforms (Black & Raider hats basically).


The main problem I can see is, if the movie portrays them like there lyrics did.
