Gangsta rap pioneers N.W.A. will reunite for a European tour with superstar Eminem as an honorary member, an entertainment executive said Wednesday.

The news came ahead of the release next month of “Straight Outta Compton,” a biopic about the Los Angeles-area group whose angry, unapologetic songs about street life shocked parts of white America in the late 1980s.

Donna Langley, chairperson of Universal Studios, which is releasing the film, said in an interview that a reunited N.W.A. would promote the movie with a tour of unspecified European destinations.

I think I'd rather see them dig up Eazy-E than that.

Ice Cube was the center that group. Eazy was a secondary member.

Nobody had E's flow at that point in time. Cube was a lyrical genius in the genre, and wrote E's lyrics, but Dre puts beats to Cube's lyrics and E's style.

Trifecta.

Meh. Maybe I am too young and so I don't get how groundbreaking it was when they hit the mainstream, but I was never all that impressed with their music.

This says it all. I was 11 when Straight Outta Compton dropped and never heard anything like it at the time. There were other artist that used a lot of profanity (Ice-T, 2 Live Crew) but Cube's writing/storytelling was genius.

"Meh"

Let me guess...you think Kanye and Lil Wayne are musical geniuses though?

I'm not really even a rap/hip hop fan but even I can appreciate how brilliant and ground breaking NWA was. Straight Out of Comptom one of the top 5 rap albums of all time imho.

Yep, NWA was some dope-azz shiit back in the day

Ice T - OG was also pretty hard core
