QDIII, the man behind the Beef DVD series and Tupac Shakur: Thug Angel, recently released his latest project, Crips and Bloods: Made In America, an award- winning documentary about two of South Los Angeles’ most notorious gangs.

Along with QDIII, who is credited as an executive producer, the film has several other big name producers connected to the project including NBA player Baron Davis and Jessica Alba’s husband Cash Warren, among others. Directed by Stacy Peralta (Dogtown & Z-Boys) and narrated by Forrest Whitaker, the film is currently opening up across the nation in select theaters.

Playing in New York’s IFC theater until tomorrow (Jan. 28), the movie will then travel around the country to screens in Los Angeles, Chicago, San Francisco, Seattle and Portland.

Snoop Dogg and Lil Wayne recently went on the record to endorse the flick. “This movie is showing us that we need to stop doing what we doing and become one and start doing for each other because they’re taking everything away from us slowly but surely,” Snoop said. [Watch Below]

“If you watch this and if you don’t watch this just know that it is serious and it is important,” Wayne added.
