Everyone Needs to Watch Chiraq (Review)
It's crazy how everyone (including myself) we're so quick to judge and write off Spike Lee for him depicting the current state of the world, in his new movie Chiraq . Chicago natives instantly criticize Spike Lee for creating a movie about the gang violence in Chicago, because he's not from Chicag smh.

He plays the character Chiraq , the lead gang member and local rapper of Chicago.
