Straight Outta Compton quotes

Hey, ya'll lookin for Felicia?

Felicia's Man

She in there or what?

She kinda preoccupied with some real **** dick.

Felicia's Man
[Revealing a gun]

The **** you say little ****?

[Comes out with a machine gun, Cube and Ren behind him with guns too]

I said, she got a mutha****in dick in her mouth ****!

[watching a crowd destroy their records]

Ain't that some shit? Speak a little truth and people lose their minds.

See, the truth is, they can do whatever they want with them. They bought them mother****ers.

[Cube is annoyed by a reporter's insistence on discussing more controversial aspects of his career, while ignoring the recent Rodney King beating.]

But I get it. The bigger the story, the bigger the check in your field of work. I shouldn't blame you, it's not your fault. [Extends hand] What's your name?

Reporter

Brian.

[Cube retracts hand]

Eat a dick, Brian. Get the **** out of my house. Y'all done here.

Doctor
[Eazy-E is in a hospital after collapsing in a recording session]

Um--

Tomica

Ain't you gonna say something? Is-- What is it, a respiratory infection, pneumonia, what?

Doctor

Yes, well, um, it is those things and more, I'm afraid. We ran a full blood battery and, uh... I'm sorry, Mr. Wright, but, uh, you've tested positive for HIV.

[in disbelief]

Get the **** outta here.

Tomica

W-W-What?

Doctor

The normal T-cell count is anywhere between 500 and 1,500. Right now, your T-cell count is 14.

[Tomica is shocked]

But I ain't no ****.

Doctor

Uh, Mr. Wright, actually, um, the virus can be transmitted in quite a few ways, including unprotected heterosexual sex.

I d-- That's wrong. You... you gotta test that over. That's-- N-- Test that again.

Doctor

We've run the test five times, with five different samples, and the result remains the same.

Tomica
[tearfully]

Shit!

Tomica! [Tomica runs out of the room in tears] Tomica! But she's pregnant, Doc. What this mean?

Doctor

It doesn't necessarily mean that she's contracted the virus, but, uh, we have to test her, to be sure.

So, what do we do? When...we start the the treatment? I mean, what-- I gotta get healthy. I got things to do. I got-- [the doctor sits next to Eazy-E] What-What are we supposed to do?

Doctor

Mr. Wright, you need to understand...that you are very, very sick.

I don't even feel that bad, Doc. Don't tell me that. Don't tell me that!

Doctor

With care, and palliative care, we can probably keep you comfortable for, uh, maybe six months, at the very most.

[on the verge of tears; voice breaking]

"Comfortable"? What do you mean, "Comfortable"?

Doctor

It's just a matter of time. Um, I, I am, I-I'm truly, truly sorry, Mr. Wright. [Eazy-E is about to cry] I-I-I'll leave you time to, um, process this.

Come on, Doc, come on, Doc, no. Doc. [the doctor leaves the room, leaving Eazy-E helpless as he cries] [voice breaking] Come on!

[Eric is upset that Jerry had embezzled money from him]

Here's what's about to happen. I'm gonna get N.W.A back together. And you ain't gonna have nothing to do with it this time.

Why the **** can you even say something like that? What the **** is going on with you, man? I know what's good for you, I know what's good for Ruthless, and we have worked up a trust after years of hard work and that trust is our foundation, Eric. I don't give a shit.

[Eric is coughing] [concerned]

Eric? You look lousy man. Are you okay?

Trust? Trust is a mother****er!

Is it? May I ask you something? Eric, If what I'm doing is so illegal, how come I've never been sued? If I'm such a **** thief, such a liar, such a mother****er, how come nobody's ever come to collect? Because this is business. And this is how it works. And it's not always pretty, no. Do I cover my own ass? Do I cover my own end? Absolutely. But don't you dare **** tell me that I have not taken care of you. Don't you **** tell me that I've not had your back from day one! DAY ONE!

Is this taking care of me?

Are you **** kidding me? It's taking care of the whole **** thing! It's business! And this is how it works. Have I covered my end? Do I cover my ass? Absolutely. But don't you dare **** tell me that I have not taken care of you.

Is this business too?

Yes, this is business, this is how **** up it can get. But I didn't start this! I didn't **** it up! You did!

No, you did. You're fired, Jerry.

DJ Yella
[Jerry Heller pauses No Vaseline, a diss track made by Ice Cube, after hearing him being mentioned as a Jew]

That's shit's kinda funny.

MC Ren

The mother****er got us! Yo what we 'bout to do?

First thing we're gonna do, we're gonna sue this ignorant ****. That's what we're gonna do. Defamation of character, libel, I don't really care of that anti-Semitic piece of **** shit, who the **** does he think he is? Un**** believable! That kind of **** bullshit! Jew bashing bullshit! You know what, I'll call up my friends at the J.D.L. They'll handle him, we'll see how much he likes that.

Jerry, you gotta relax. Alright? **** don't even know what anti-Semitic means anyway, it's a **** battle rap.

C'mon, Eric, we gotta get organised. We gotta fight this kind of ignorant **** bullshit. You know what? I always knew he was a hateful human being. This is just ignorant shit. He calls it political? This is ignorant shit! I always knew it. Now the whole world is gonna know. I'm gonna make sure of that, okay? I don't understand why the **** you're not more angry about this? Did you hear what he said?

I heard what he said.

DID YOU HEAR WHAT HE SAID?!

I heard what he said!

About you? About me? Come on!

You got your way of dealing with it, I got mine. We could just go to the studio and just end his **** career anyway.

DJ Yella

I don't know about all that.

Fine. You'll do that. You call Dre and you guys go do that! Do something.

Suge Knight
[Last lines; Dr. Dre is leaving Death Row Records to form his own label, much to Suge Knight's chagrin.]

Whatcha gonna call that bullshit?

Aftermath.

[N.W.A have been warned not to perform **** tha Police.]

Hey, hold on, hold on! Y'all know what the mother****in' police tried to tell us back stage?

They tried to tell us...what the **** we can't play. [audience angrily boos] Mother****ers tried to tell us...what the **** we can't say! [audience still boos] This N.W.A.! [audience cheers wildly] We do what the **** we wanna do; We say what the **** we wanna say! So everybody, put them middle fingers high in the sky. And to the punk-ass cop backstage-- [audience boos the police with their middle fingers raised, and cheer and whistle for N.W.A] Yo, Dre.

What up?

I got somethin' to say.

[Dre scratches vinyl record in rhythm] [rapping]

**** the police coming straight from the underground,A young **** got it bad cause I'm brown.And not the other color so police thinkThey have the authority to kill a minority.**** that shit, 'cause I ain't the oneFor a punk mother****er with a badge and a gunTo be beating on, and thrown in jail.We can go toe to toe in the middle of a cell.

[NWA arrives back in L.A from the tour, Dre & Cube get off the bus]

So Cube, we gonna keep this momentum going or what?

Nah, not like this. I'd rather be broke than to get ****. I told you not to sign that shit, Dre.

****, I got bills to pay. And you know that! Plus you know I gotta put money in my mom's hand from when Tyree passed.

Yeah, I feel you. We gotta do what we gotta do. You they bread and butter, they're gonna take care of you.

Cube, we ruthless.

We N.W.A. [looks at Eazy-E and Jerry] They Ruthless.

Let me tell you what I see here: a lot of raw talent. Swagger. Bravado. People are scared of you guys. They think you're dangerous, but the world needs to hear it.

[to the policemen]

You can't come down here and harass these guys because they're black! people have rights!
