The Straight Outta Compton movie co-produced by former N.W.A. “OG’s” Dr. Dre and Ice Cube is probably one of the most highly anticipated and long awaited films in the history of hip hop films.

The movie is directed by famed urban director F. Gary Gray (Friday, Set It Off) and chronicles the rise and fall of the Compton, California rap group N.W.A.

The controversial street rap group consisted of Eazy E, Dr. Dre, Ice Cube, MC Ren and DJ Yella.

N.W.A.’s debut album was also entitled, Straight Outta Compton.

Personally, I cannot wait until this film hits in theaters in August!

Stay Tuned to The Pen Hustle for more details on how to get tickets to our private premiere party.

By Jeremy Warren | The StarPhoenix

Indigenous men are more likely to be murdered than anyone else in Canada – possibly more than 2,000 in a 30-year period.

Grace Lafond-Barr believes healing starts in the home, so she moved her family to Muskeg Lake Cree Nation from Saskatoon two years ago to escape the city where murder took away her two brothers and a son.

She hopes the distance between the city and her grandkids will mean a quieter life without the spectre of violence and vice following them as they grow into young men. Lafond-Barr has seen enough of that: in…
