Compton, California, is known as the “Hub City” for a specific reason. Compton was the first city west of the Mississippi to elect a black mayor and, politically, was an early “black” city out west. The city of Compton is the home for the beginning and growth of so many important and influential men and women that the list is too long to name- from politicians to athletes, rap stars to actors, all these folks are proud to say they are STRAIGHT OUTTA COMPTON!
