Feb 1, 2024 JAY-Z, Kanye West, Eminem and more have been parodied in Affion Crockett’s new film A Hip Hop Story — watch the trailer below. The musical comedy, which also stars Cedric the Entertainer, Lil Rel Howery and Lil Mama, focuses on a Hip Hop culture in crisis and will see various rap legends team up to save the genre. The first trailer for the movie features caricatures of Kanye West (complete with a face-covering mask), JAY-Z, an early Eminem and various other figures including Snoop Dogg, Biggie, Diddy, Run-DMC, Russell Simmons, Salt-N-Pepa, Joe Budden and Chris Rock. Crockett himself plays multiple characters, including Simmons who is the founder of Def Man Recordings — a spoof of his and Rick Rubin’s iconic Def Jam label.
