Yeah, keep perpetuating that stereotype...


It really does. The black community should really shun types of movies like this. Excessive foul language, dumbed-down dialogue/rap lines, misogyny, ridiculous violence and ignorant view of quality of life. Everyone is pretty much irrational and has the gang mindset. Seriously, people who use this kind of language and n i g g a constantly, sound like really immature, moronic thugs.

The story/characters weren't very good either. The most ridiculous scene is where Sticky (after contemplating renouncing gang violence for peaceful life with his "boo") goes to his gun dealer and is ready to BUY hundreds of thousands of dollars of premium heavy artillery. Then when he asks the price, the dealer says "Hey man, it's on the house" Haha, that would never ever happen in this world where greed is number one, especially for thugs chasing that paper.

Okay thugs, this is your inciting incident.

When I see ignorant thugs - I think about ignorant thugs. - I don't think about Black people. When I see nig... I think about nig...I don't think about blk ppl in general. So to me this isn't stereotypical.

Unless by stereotype you're saying this isn't how all ignorant thugs act.


If you listen to Sticky Fingaz rap (Or just listened to the "Black Trash" album) - then you know what to expect going into this movie. - To me it represents Sticky/ONYX type of music. I mean seriously, ONYX raps about guns, sex, murder, suicide, and overall violence - and sht that don't really happen.

I mean really. Did you expect this to be an award winner or something?



The second I heard that Sticky wrote and directed a movie all in rap - I was expecting cursing, and crime. I also expected it to not be well done or acted (if you ever seen Sticky and especially Fredro act before) - And of course - Just like a rap album - A movie (not just this one) is most of the time unreal or even far fetched. So by saying "that would never happen" is like saying most movies are real and everything ONYX rapped about can actually happen - except for this.
