What We Think

CB4 avoids the pitfall of modern 'wokeness,' aiming its satire at cultural excess, not social justice dogma. While edgy and irreverent, it doesn’t fall into current ideological traps, making it distinctly non-woke by today’s Hollywood standards.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

CB4 focuses on satire and parody, poking fun at hip-hop culture without shoehorning modern identity politics or forced representation for its own sake. The central characters are comedic exaggerations, but their personalities drive the story without an overt ideological checklist.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Mildly Woke

What is this?

The film lampoons music culture but doesn’t take aim at traditional family values, religion, or masculinity in the 'woke' sense. It's irreverent, but not in a way that seems driven by progressive rewriting of social foundations.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Mildly Woke

What is this?

CB4 satirizes various perspectives, from gangsta rap glorification to suburban pretenders. While it mocks certain trends, it doesn't present only one worldview or villainize traditional ideas, leaving room for multiple interpretations and social commentary.
