Dec 30, 2015 So I was watching Straight Outta Compton and guys is this all based on reality ?. I meani, ok I know Cube left the group because he felt like he wasn't getting what he deserved etc and Dre's lil bro dying but how about police f---ing up the Detroit concert or the fight between Lench Mob & ruthless things like that ??? Movie is f---in' dope btw...
Dec 30, 2015 Most of it was real, just some scenes were exaggerated and/or changed for the audience. The Detroit police didn't interrupt the show, they arrested them in a hotel lobby after the show. Also D.O.C.'s character and other people didn't have as big of a role as they did in real life. To the best of my knowledge the scene with Suge and Eazy in the studio was changed a lot. From what I remember, Suge and some other guys threatened both E and Jerry with baseball bats.
