N.W.A Straight Outta Compton New Vinyl LP

Straight Outta Compton wasn't quite the first gangsta rap album, but it was the first one to find a popular audience, and its sensibility virtually defined the genre from its 1988 release on. It established gangsta rap -- and, moreover, West Coast rap in general -- as a commercial force, going platinum with no airplay and crossing over with shock-hungry white teenagers. Unlike Ice-T, there's little social criticism or reflection on the gangsta lifestyle; most of the record is about raising hell -- harassing women, driving drunk, shooting it out with cops and partygoers. All of that directionless rebellion and rage produces some of the most frightening, visceral moments in all of rap, especially the amazing opening trio of songs, which threaten to dwarf everything that follows.

Given the album's sheer force, the production is surprisingly spare, even a little low-budget -- mostly DJ scratches and a drum machine, plus a few sampled horn blasts and bits of funk guitar. Although they were as much a reaction against pop-friendly rap, Straight Outta Compton's insistent claims of reality ring a little hollow today, since it hardly ever depicts consequences. But despite all the romanticized invincibility, the force and detail of Ice Cube's writing makes the exaggerations resonate.

Although Cube wrote some of his bandmates' raps, including nearly all of Eazy-E's, each member has a distinct delivery and character, and the energy of their individual personalities puts their generic imitators to shame. But although Straight Outta Compton has its own share of posturing, it still sounds refreshingly uncalculated because of its irreverent, gonzo sense of humor, still unfortunately rare in hardcore rap.

It's impossible to overstate the enduring impact of Straight Outta Compton; as polarizing as its outlook may be, it remains an essential landmark, one of hip-hop's all-time greatest.
In 2007, Straight Outta Compton was released in a 20th anniversary edition featuring five bonus tracks including an N.W.A live cut and cover versions of N.W.A tracks from Snoop Dogg, Bone Thugs-N-Harmony, Mack 10, and WC.

OUR DVDS: PLEASE NOTE THIS IS NOT A DISCLAIMER IT IS REAL INFORMATION AND APPLIES TO EVERY DVD WE SELL Including this dvd. So every dvd for sale by us. ALL OF OUR DVDS ARE MARKED ON THE LISTING WHAT REGION THEY ARE, PLEASE NOTE SOME DVDS ARE DUAL CODE SO IF WE SAY FOR EXAMPLE A DVD IS REGION 4 IT MEANS IT WILL PLAY IN AUSTRALIA AND HAS THE REGION 4 CODE ON THE DVD, BUT NOTE IT MAY ALSO BE A REGION 2 AND 1 DUAL CODE. THIS WILL NOT AFFECT IT PLAYING IN AUSTRALIA. SOME DVDS ARE ALSO ONLY MARKED REGION 2 WHEN THEY ARE A DUAL CODE REGION 2 AND 4, IF THIS IS THE CASE WE WILL ADVISE IT IS A REGION 4 ALSO NOT TO CONFUSE.ALSO SOME MAYBE A DUAL CODE REGION 1 AND 4 BUT ONLY SAY 1 ON THE COVER AGAIN WE WILL ADVISE IF IT IS A REGION 4.DVD discs contain Regional Codes which can be used to prevent the playback of certain discs depending upon the geographical area they are played in. The various studios and home video companies lobbied to make sure this coding system was a required part of the current DVD standards, because they wish to control how their DVD titles are exported to other countries. (For example, while a recent film may already have played theatrically in the United States and been released to the home video market, that same film may not yet have opened in some European or Asian countries.)
In most instances, discs manufactured in one region will only play on players that were manufactured in that same region - this means that discs bought or imported from Japan will not play on U.S. players, and vice versa. However, the regional coding system is entirely optional, and discs without Regional Codes will play on any player in any country.
Australia falls into region four and most Australian DVD players are region 4 only. Unless otherwise specified you should assume your player is a region 4 player (Multi region DVD players are available.
The map below shows the different DVD region of the world. If you have any further doubts about regions do not hesitate to send us a message

DVD FORMATS

Just to confuse you even more, as well as being a region code on a DVD there is also a format. Australia uses a format called PAL which stands for Phase Alternating Line.it was introduced in the early 1960's in Europe. There are two other formats which are used elsewhere around the world, NTSC and SECAM. Just about all of our dvd's are PAL, if they are not we will clearly specify this in the product page. Some titles are only available in NTSC so this is why. So unless otherwise stated the DVD will be PAL. The map below illustrates the different formats used around the world if, if you have any doubts please do not hesitate to contact us.

SECAM is compatible with PAL and vice versa. However if a PAL DVD is played on a NTSC or vice versa, there will be distorting of picture. Again if you bought your DVD player in Australia you have nothing to worry about as all of our PAL DVDs will play on your system.

GAMES FORMATS

All games we stock will work on any Australian operating system or console. For international customers, please contact us if you are unsure as to whether the games will work within your country.
