This past August, Straight Outta Compton outperformed box office expectations, eventually becoming the highest-grossing music biopic of all time. Fast forward to January 2016, the N.W.A. origin story is now an Academy Award nominee, snagging a spot on the shortlist to win the Oscar for Best Original Screenplay. Riding the wave of awards-season attention, the incredible soundtrack was released on CD and vinyl earlier this month, with the film itself hitting shelves on Blu-ray and DVD today.

One grand prize winner will receive the prize package, with four runners-up receiving a copy of the Blu-ray/DVD combo pack.

Straight Outta Compton tells the true story of how five young cultural rebels—armed only with their lyrics, swagger, bravado, and raw talent—stood up to the authorities that meant to keep them down and formed the world’s most dangerous group, N.W.A. And as they spoke the truth that no one had before and exposed life in the hood, their voice ignited a social revolution that is still reverberating today.
