Mixed Reviews?[edit]

Of the three reviews given, two are negative and one isn't a review at all, but a promotional interview with the star and director of the movie, who MAY be a bit biased. Consider fixing this, won't you? InedibleHulk (talk) 06:06, 24 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

"I'm Black, Y'all"[edit]

When I saw this film in the theater, the only thing which caught my attention was the part where the group split up and went solo, particularly the video for "I'm Black, Y'all". 20+ years later, it's pretty much the only part of the film which anyone even remembers anymore. I would dare to say that it's almost a meme. Therefore, it's really not surprising that the article fails to mention it. Then there's the aspect of what was being lampooned. As I remember, Gusto became an Eazy-E clone, but "I'm Black, Y'all" was a parody of Professor Griff's spat with and departure from Public Enemy.

Origin of the group's name[edit]

Originally this article stated: The film follows a fictional rap group named "CB4", named after the prison block in which the group was allegedly formed (Cell Block 4).

On 7/27/18 I changed the line to: The film follows a fictional rap group named "CB4", named after the prison block in which a local club owner/drug dealer named Gusto was incarcerated (Cell Block 4).

Someone undid my revision the same day.

What I posted is correct, what was there (and is now back) is not correct.

Here is a quote directly from the movie: "Cos from now on I'll be known as MC Gusto. We'll be Cell Block 4, after the joint they threw Gusto in."

To anyone who has more power than me, maybe you can fix the article and not get it immediately switched back to false information?
