Last year the movie biopic of groundbreaking Hip Hop Rap group NWA took the box office by storm, with Straight Outta Compton depicting their life and rise to fame in the mid-80s from the mean streets of Compton in Los Angeles, California.

These costumes from the movie were photographed on display at Downtown L.A.'s FIDM Museum on February 12, 2016, and Kelli Jones was the Costume Designer responsible for recreating the street wear look and Oakland Raiders apparel of the revolutionary rap group.

From left to right Aldis Hodge wore this outfit as 'MC Ren', O'Shea Jackson Jr. played 'Ice Cube', at back in the middle Jason Mitchell was 'Eazy-E', Corey Hawkins starred as 'Dr. Dre' and Neil Brown Jr. wore the pink satin Wreckin' Cru jacket as 'DJ Yella'.
