Synopsis Sex, Rhymes andiKeepin' It Real! Comedy superstar Chris Rock (Lethal Weapon 4, New Jack City, Saturday Night Live) stars in CB4, an off the hook, hilarious look at the world of Gangsta Rap. Rock plays Albert, a.k.a. MC Gusto, the leader of the hot new rap group CB4 (short for "Cell Block 4"). The trio of CB4 - MC Gusto, Stab Master Arson (Deezer D) and Dead Mike (Allen Payne), are living large as their hardcore albums blow up the charts. Their rise to fame takes an unfortunate turn when they're caught up as subjects of a documentary by corny filmmaker A. White (Chris Elliott) and victims of a political campaign by Republican Virgil Robinson (Phil Hartman). And when the reality hits the streets that these cats are just three middle class kids posing as ex-con thugs, their world of money, power, and respect takes a beat down in the most embarrassing and ludicrous ways. This outrageous "rapumentary" is packed with cameos by real O.G. rap legends like Ice-T, Flavor Flav, and Easy E, and studded with special guest appearances by Tommy Davidson, Halle Berry and Shaquille O'Neal. CB4 is a hysterical stroll through the streets of hard core hip hop.

Empire Review Rap me up! - 3.75 out of 5  (5/21/2003) Billed as the first Rock & Rapumentary, CB4 has critics and audiences divided right down the middle as to how good it actually is. Myself, I have always preferred FEAR OF A BLACK HAT as the best Rap mockumentary but this flick comes in as a very close second. And a lot of that is due to the cast which includes some of the ebst veterans of Saturday Night Live including Chris Rock, Phil Hartman and Chris Elliot. Allen Payne, Deezer D and Theresa Randle join them and the result is a sometim   more >> Customer Review Get this movie!!! - 3.5 out of 5  (1/22/2004) this is a very funny movie and if you like comedys, you will enjoy CB4   more >>
