Kings Of Compton (documentary)
DVD cover (Japan) photo by: Ithaka Darin Pappas / @_ithaka_
This inclusive documentary takes a unique look at the most influential
West Coast rap group in history and inventors of gangster rap: NWA. The
life and death of controversial rapper Eazy-E and the birth of the
career of highly successful actor, movie producer and rapper Ice Cube
and world renowned music producer Dr. Dre is documented through
never-before-seen candid interviews, personal photos, and touching
stories, giving insight into the real men behind the records. Eazy-E
took America through the streets of Compton for an unforgettable ride,
and created a new music style that spawned a billion dollar industry.
This is the personal story of Compton boy Eric Wright, and his journey
to becoming the King of Gangster Rap as a man who actually lived the
criminal lifestyle he featured in his music. His legacy is captured here
in the way Eazy-E and NWA changed the landscape of rap and hip hop
forever.
