It definitely is profane (the language is raw to say the least), but it is an amusing satire, good for quite a few laughs. If you like Chris Rock on Saturday Night Live, you’ll probably get a big kick out of this movie. The story is about a group of middle-class kids who form a “gangsta rap” group and pretend to be real tough guys. Of course they achieve fame and fortune, and live “large” until the actual bad guys catch up to them.
