Want to see but will wait until I can watch it at home. Was in college when they hit, oh and fuck da police.

I really liked it... I was a bit young when they first broke out, but certainly remember their music as I hit middle school. Lots of stuff I didn't know or realize, probably because I was so young back then... but I didn't know Ice Cube did stuff with puffy and Bad Boyz while all that feuding was going on.

Also just always assumed Pac, Snoop, Cube, Dre, etc. were all coming up at the same time, but obviously they werent. It's really cool seeing all the connections and how certain songs were created. Ice Cube was/is a badass lyricist.

Also a great "bye felecia" line that still has me laughing.
