Ice Cube: Doku Straight Outta L.A.
Ice Cube  macht eine Dokumentation über das Football Team der Los Angeles Raiders . Die Dokumentation wird in Anlehnung an das N.W.A. Album Straight Outta Compton den Namen Straight Outta L.A . tragen und die Geschichte des Sportteams von Beginn an nacherzählen. Für dieses Vorhaben hat sich die Westcost-Legende mit dem Sport-Fernsehsender ESPN  zusammengeschlossen.
In einem offiziellen Statement erzählt  Ice Cube von seiner frühen Verbundenheit mit Football und speziell den  Raiders :
"In 1980, Ronald Reagan was elected president, few white kids were listening to Rap and I was an 11-year-old kid in South Central Los Angeles. I was into sports and watched as many games as I could on TV - the Lakers, USC Football, UCLA, but I hadn't developed a connection to any particular football team. But that fall, something clicked as I watched the Oakland Raiders. " Und er verdeutlicht die engen Beziehungen zwischen Musik und Sport im Los Angeles seiner Zeit:  "The music, lyrics and images that I created with N.W.A . as a solo artist and as an actor helped turn the Raiders into something more than a fottball team. It's been 21 years since we released Straight Outta Compton , but to this day, kids all over the world buy Raiders gear, imitate the 'Gangster Rap' style and try to connect with the South Central L.A. vibe that we brought to the masses." Wann die Dokumentation zu sehen sein wird, steht noch nicht fest.
