NWA - Straight Outta Compton

Published: Aug. 14, 2014, 2:57 p.m.

This week we take on the truly groundbreaking 1988 classic, \u201cStraight Outta Compton\u201d. I was tempted to write this in some clever fashion, with lots of puns and references to how white we are, but as funny and subversive that kind of humor is, I guess I\u2019m just feeling a little blas\xe9 this week. I do want to comment on how hilariously silly the lyrics to this album are, and how much things have changed in the intervening 25 years since Straight Outta Compton was released.
