MC Ren Slams N.W.A 'Straight Outta Compton' Movie Trailers: 'How the Hell You Leave Me Out?'
By Erika Ramirez
MC Ren took to social media to express his frustration with Universal Pictures for not depicting him in the Straight Outta Compton movie trailers.
“Man f--- these bitches at universal pictures leaving me out the movie trailers tryin to rewrite history,” he tweeted on Wednesday.

The string of honest tweets are valid. Ren — who is played by Adis Hodge in the film — was a member of N.W.A along with Ice Cube, the late Eazy-E, DJ Yella andDr. Dre. Unfortunately, the trailers don’t include an appearance by Neil Brown Jr. (who plays Yella), either.
When you have bitches work on a hip hop film that don’t know shit about hip hop this is what happens. How the hell u leave me out after all
