1987年、5人の若者が、暴力的なほどに真っ直ぐな歌詞をハードコアなビートにのせ、米国屈指の危険地域で暮らす怒りともどかしさを、彼らの最大の武器である音楽にぶつけた。本作ではすべてが始まった原点に立ち戻る。武器といえば歌詞と傍若無人さ、威勢のよさと才能しかなかった音楽界の反逆者たちが、彼らを押さえつけようとした権力者にどう立ち向かったのか。世界一の危険集団N.W.A.の結成を描き出す。誰もが口を閉ざしていた真実と危険地域での暮らしを語った彼らの言葉は、社会に変革の渦を巻き起こし、その影響は今なお残っている。アイス・キューブ役にオシェア・ジャクソン・Jr、ドクター・ドレー役にコーリー・ホーキンズ、イージー・E役にジェイソン・ミッチェル。監督はF・ゲイリー・グレイ。
