Cash Money Records may be getting the Straight Outta Compton treatment soon. While talking to students at Brooklyn Law School yesterday, Cash Money founders Birdman and Slim revealed that a script already exists, and they’re looking forward to bringing it to life. “[Slim] said everything we’ve ever did – and I got 20 plus years selling records – nothing we ever did is worth more than that script, I’m excited about the script,” Birdman told the panel’s moderator. “That’s something I really want to do. For [Dr. Dre and Ice Cube] to do that [movie] and to make it trend-setting, they opened doors for us, and I think that what we have is way more special because we’re in modern times.” Slim noted that he “wasn’t sure” if there was a possibility of it becoming a book first and then a screenplay, but either way, he says, it’s “gonna be great.” I’m here for this!
