Aug 21, 2015 Hollywood's not done cashing in on the 'hood -- a "Straight Outta Compton" sequel, of sorts, is in the works featuring the rise of Snoop Dogg, Tupac and other West Coast rap legends. Dogg Pound vet Daz tells TMZ the movie will pick up where N.W.A. left off -- following the careers of Snoop, Nate Dogg, Kurupt, Daz and Warren G. We're told the title is "Dogg Pound 4 Life." Tha DPG's music will be the focus, but Daz says the follow-up also won't whitewash g--- violence and its impact on the rap industry. As for casting -- we're told Dr. Dre's son, Curtis Young, will take over that role. No decision yet on who will play Snoop and Ice Cube ... but it won't be the same actors from 'Compton.' Dre and Cube won't be producing, but Daz says Cube's given his stamp of approval. There is one huge loose end named Suge Knight. We're told he'll be included in the story -- hard to omit since Deathrow was so huge -- but the producers won't be working with him. Besides ... Suge's got enough on his plate.

Aug 21, 2015 "Dre and Cube won't be producing, but Daz says Cube's given his stamp of approval." = Straight-to-DVD + 17% rating on Rotten Tomatoes lol
Aug 21, 2015 Should be alright, don't think it will attract anywhere near as much people as NWA's though. Doubt many people know who Kurupt/Daz is.
Aug 21, 2015 ^sad considering they had the indie record record for years until Mac. Snoop won't let it go out like that. Especially not for Nate's sake. But why not have the same Straight Outta actors? This must mean a whole seperate production company.
Aug 21, 2015 Dont know why you are focusing on those two when Snoop, Pac, Nate Dogg etc. are in it. Im sure the same ppl who know MC Ren and DJ Yella will know them.
Aug 21, 2015 As soon as there is a legit good, and successful "Hip-Hop" film, another one has to come along tag it as a sequel and take a step back to being a joke..smh
Aug 21, 2015 How could this be considered a sequel to Straight Outta Compton when it's gonna be all different actors, producers, etc. Would be interesting if it was all the same actors, minus the guy who played Snoop. That was my only complaint about the NWA movie. That guy looked and sounded nothing like Snoop. The rest of the cast was perfect. Movie definitely sounds like it's gonna be a flop/straight to DVD release based on the information we have now.
