Obviously right... but does that make for the best and most honest portrayal of you in someone’s art piece
na probably not but contractually ye might be able to sue them if they release without his consent
Nah man, Kanye’s vision of himself and only his vision of himself is not at all what I want to see out of this. I’m sorry, but he’s not even remotely an unbiased party. The history speaks for itself and he really needs to understand that. His legacy is complicated and THAT’S IMPORTANT
Like bro, if you want full creative control, make your own doc. Don’t f*** the process at the last minute for a fully finished piece dedicated to you out of hubris
i understand the original press release gave the wrong idea and that disappointing to some but this is not a career doc. it is not a retelling of the career arc of Kanye its a story of Coodie and Chike's experiences and friendship with Kanye over this time.
They decided to start filming this dude out of Chicago who seemed like he could do notable things someday and he ended up being one of the greatest artists of the century. During this period they fell off as friends with him and picked back up to see what changed and where he's at now
This isn't the only doc that will ever release. If someone wants 08-15, push for Kanye to do something about it. He owns footage too
don’t get me wrong, i love donda but
I MISS THIS KANYE SM. this kanye was genius. before they get-out-ed him
This era of every artist/athlete having their own "doc" has produced very little good content. Just not going to be as good as someone doing it objectively 99% of the time
I would much prefer a version of this film where Ye doesn't get to pick and choose what we see
and i would hope he would realize that’s better for the art. Let’s have a toast to the douchebaaags!
Nah I just want to see his vision . Caring about the artist vision isn’t simp
He’s not the artist in this case. The directors are. Sorry

Lol why you like this

Oh this is why you are like this . Don’t quote me anymore
Let the person who has an entire doc about them see what's really up, this shouldn't have to be debatable at all
Okay, how about we have all subjects of journalism cherry pick the writer or director’s portrayal of them! Sounds like a Great idea!

It's almost like he went from focusing 100% of his time on music, to music being in addition to running a billion dollar business

“HIS LEGACY IS COMPLICATED AND THAT’S IMPORTANT”
SAY IT AGAIN LOUDER FOR THE PEOPLE IN THE BACK
as a documentarian myself, Yes

I agree on this but the controversial parts and his ignorance we already see through the tweets . I’m not saying I want him as a perfect human being on doc however I don’t see benefit of dwelling on bad because internet going to post the bad clips to go viral and say “see be crazy he gave me proof “
Lol why you like this
Cuz it’s true. Kanye is the subject, not the artist.

That is true but any bad footage is what will go viral
Lol why you like this
Don’t f*** with the directors vision, ye might not be happy about it and that’s okay his legacy is complicated it’s important we see it how it was for it to be good art
Oh this is why you are like this . Don’t quote me anymore
you don’t got a favorite era? i still love kanye

Leave to Ye, he’ll add the problematic stuff in there when the doc is probably him presented in a positive way
ik i’m gonna get killed over this but on a doc of this scale i dont want ye tinkering with it tryin to retcon his own past
standard for all documentaries or true stories
same reason why i don’t like straight outta compton
Again tho this is def him just building hype. Very specific timing for this to happen 2 days after Coodie revealed Ye didn't have final cut, knew it and trusted them
Kanye has been apart of promoting this over the months. He didn't even mention the filmmakers in that post and now it seems like people are targeting Netflix who didn't even make the doc. People will just wanna watch more now
