According to a Universal representative, there are no immediate plans for a sequel to come together.

A spiritual sequel to Straight Outta Compton featuring Tupac, Snoop Dogg, and Tha Dogg Pound sounded too good be true. At the moment, it is. A Universal spokesperson tells EW: “At this time there are no plans for a Straight Outta Compton sequel.” (Entertainment Weekly)

West Coast rapper Daz broke the news about a sequel earlier this week.

Dogg Pound vet Daz tells TMZ the movie will pick up where N.W.A. left off — following the careers of Snoop, Nate Dogg, Kurupt, Daz and Warren G. We’re told the title is “Dogg Pound 4 Life.” Tha DPG’s music will be the focus, but Daz says the follow-up also won’t whitewash gang violence and its impact on the rap industry. (TMZ)

Young Money’s Nicki Minaj boasted about the flick’s box office success earlier this week.
