They were called "the world's most dangerous group" for a reason. It wasn't just good to be bad when it came to Eazy-E, Dr. Dre, MC Ren, DJ Yella and Ice Cube: It was life-altering. It feels almost criminal to categorize N.W.A as merely a group. They were and are a state of mind, a lifestyle, a movement. With all the dope-selling, the graphic sex and violence in their lyrics, N.W.A were like voices from the other side of the ghetto. While the East Coast was dominating hip-hop, the ghetto-entrenched narratives of N.W.A's 1989 breakthrough, Straight Outta Compton, introduced society to a whole different 'hood mentality. Ice Cube in particular could make you feel like you were standing on the corner of Crenshaw and Slauson in South Central L.A. with a 40-ounce in your hand, getting ready to duck the swing of a bigoted cop's baton. Lyrically, the underrated MC Ren was right on his heels Γ?? so cold-hearted in his delivery and remorselessly precise with his bars.

The group's influence has reached far beyond its songs. With Ruthless Records, the late Eazy-E helped to design the template for the independent rap-label hustle. Hollywood has become so enamored of the former public enemy number-one Ice Cube that he now stars in kids' flicks. And Dre has become simply the greatest hip-hop producer of all time, helping to launch the careers of Snoop Dogg, the D.O.C., Eminem and 50 Cent, among others Γ?? and Eazy didn't do too badly for himself, with Bone Thugs-N-Harmony.
