Tupac gets a very significant mention.  Suge and Death Row are mentioned.  Ice Cube ends up on somebody's Top Five.  The movie takes place in New York.  It's not like they are going out of their way to ignore or hate on the West.

I don't see how Jay-Z being a co-producer and Quest being music coordinator have anything to do with the film's content.

  So are we making the argument that as a music coordinator, Questlove got handed the script and was allowed to make little script notes and have input on who made it to the "Top Five" lists in the film?

How silly of me.  It's pretty common knowledge that music coordinators have the final say on independent film projects.  I should have known better.
