A metà degli anni 80, quando le strade di Compton, California, erano alcune delle più pericolose del paese, cinque ragazzi decidono di tradurre le loro esperienze di vita in una musica onesta e brutale. Una musica che si ribella contro gli abusi dell'autorità, dando voce a una generazione rimasta in silenzio. Seguendo la fulminea ascesa e caduta degli NWA, Straight Outta Compton racconta la stupefacente storia di come questi giovani hanno rivoluzionato la musica e la cultura pop per sempre, nel momento in cui hanno raccontato al mondo la verità sulla vita “incappucciata”, accendendo il fuoco di una guerra culturale.
