This movie is getting pushed heavily on Salem radio.

Commercials for it all the time.

I can’t buy a movie about King that has hip hop music as a backdrop.

Seems ludicrous.

Kind of a musical rejection of everything he stood for.

It seems as though this is par for the course today. The 2013 version of The Great Gatsby, a story set in 1922 featured hip hop and disco dancing. Oh, well, although it's anachronistic, I suppose we have to feature contemporary pop music in movies set in historic times to appeal to today's young people, who have no sense of history.
