Music is always there, but if you’re asking me my first love, it’s film. O'Shea Jackson, Jr. Read Quote
Our trials and our times of pain get the most recognition, but ‘Straight Outta Compton’ speaks to triumph.

Ice Cube’s the coolest dad. A lot of parents – a lot of kids do not think their parents are cool. Oh, no. My dad’s cool… You know, I was born in 1991. That’s when ‘Boyz n the Hood’ came out. So I’ve always see him on TV. I don’t see everybody else’s dad, you know. So I’ve always had a sense of, you know, he’s cool. He’s in the light. O'Shea Jackson, Jr. Read Quote
This entire cast, N.W.A, was an all-star group, and I really feel like people are going to look at ‘Straight Outta Compton’ years from now like this was an all-star cast. O'Shea Jackson, Jr. Read Quote
Being on set with my dad – that’s so cool. People always ask me if that made me nervous, but it’s the same element when you’re a kid – when your parents come in the auditorium for those school performances. It calms you. O'Shea Jackson, Jr. Read Quote
The trials my father went through were things most young black males have to go through. There was nothing he shielded from me, because it doesn’t matter how you grow up, those who oppress will oppress. It’s all completely relatable; everyone feels NWA. O'Shea Jackson, Jr. Read Quote
