@@saqib7965 I'm a huge Kanye fan but you're not entirely correct here. Graduation was the album that marked the end of gangster raps prominence in hop hop due to the whole sales battle between him and 50 cent. You're right about 808s, but you could also mention Travis Scott being directly influenced as well. MBDTF is a masterpiece, and it laid the foundation of other albums like channel orange, good kid MAAD city and take care. Yeezus was not a new sound, death grips had been doing it for ages before yeezus came along. Kanye just brought it to mainstream hip hop, which was a huge risk.

Great documentary. Mos Def supported Kanye when many did not take him seriously as a rapper. Mos is my favorite rapper, there's a gentleness about his demeanor that I find so refreshing. And Kanye's drive and innocence back then really touched me. Coodie did great following his intuition in deciding to film and follow KW and intuition is everything when it comes to art. Inspiring piece of filmmaking!

I got teared up when this scene came up in the series .. i was thinking how can a so passionate guy with this much talent didn’t getting his shot …. U can see in his flow all that pent up energy….old kanye want to prove himself, u can listen to old songs like ( can’t tell me nothing) n now he is more passionate about fashion design and all that other stuff n I’m so happy for him … that’s a true artist he contributed what he want to weather its producing or rap and now something else he kept creating new levels ..

the verse was sooo crazy

[@phoeni3902]

The best case scenario is that this would end up being a 'The Last Dance' style thing where it's 10 episodes that are each an hour long Edit: apparently it's only gonna be a 3 part series, still better than just 1 episode

[@tresonit4958]

Almost has the most energy in the room. Always the most patient. Always exceeds expectations. Yet always is expected to fail and not perform. Kanye knew he was special from day 1. Makes me so happy to see what believing and betting on yourself can do. Thats the reason i love ye❤️

[@fredotlogetswe3047]

Amazing will be an understatement for this documentary, I thought I knew who Kanye is until I watched this. We have been "getting to know" him through the eyes of the media and we were sold a dummy. This is a humble guy who struggled to make it, and her mother was a sweet motherly humble woman who was his pillar for sure. This is the Kanye we didn't know at all.I will never look at him the same. INCREDIBLE
