If I was ye id hate them niggas like damn can I listen to something without yall breathing down my neck

need criterion on this stat

Yeah there’s still plenty left like the nico footage around 16

Omg, so did I! Wasn’t it an incredible film! Dude I couldn’t believe it captured my attention for not only 3 hours, but the fact it was still so good after 60+ years is AMAZING. Wonderful film!!!

I know that but he said “like everyone else, he was from the outside looking in”

He could’ve done some research during that time & shown some positive things Kanye had done during that time. just a thought

I was fighting for my life not to cry but the hey mama high quality footage broke me tbh
The editing of this doc is superb
Coodie has a great vision

Never said I knew him better.
Documentary’s are meant to be as objective as possible. First 2 episodes were perfect examples of that. Episode 3 had a definite subjective angle on Kanye’s mental health and playing into that weird media narrative that all know to well.

What weird media narrative
Theres literally footage in the documentary that we BOTH watched of kanye having a breakdown on camera lol
Coodie is even respectful enough to turn the camera off sometimes

p sure that was throne of blood

Exactly, there were a handful of scenes that just made him look bad without any context being offered

Ye would never have approved of the second half of ep 3

that is NOT true that documentaries are supposed to be as objective as possible. idk where you heard that but no filmmaker in the world is going to agree with you on that statement

All those segments where Coodie would stop recording ye cause he felt uncomfortable
It’s obvious we supposed to look at ye like something is wrong with him mentally
But I’ll be honest I understood everything he was saying it’s just the way he was saying it was unhinged and doing too much ie yelling and constantly comparing himself to other geniuses

Lmao right. Especially not about kanye f***ing west. The first two episodes werent objective but because kanye looked good in them its different

Like it’s painfully obvious that Coodie is virtue signaling when he shows Ye having a breakdown and then tells us that he’s turning the camera off, if the situation wasn’t appropriate to record why did you put it in the doc

When they sent that man to the hospital after his mental breakdown he saw some s*** and decided to dedicate his life to changing the world
That nigga ye know something we don’t

yea the man who's known Kanye for 25 years is really worried about virtue signaling he's def not legitimately concerned about the mental health of his brother

edit: f*** I said I was done replying to yall. last time

Editing and pacing got a bit more sloppy as the 2nd episode went on. Like it was all College Dropout then last 20 mins let's zoom into Late registration and fast forward to Donda

Its just disrespectful as f***

Cudi seems like he can easily be annoyed by the way Kanye does stuff and it almost looks like Kanye looks up to cudi during the KSG sessions. He was like a little kid.

They’re such a great duo tho it’s sad they are having issues right now. It was great seeing them create together and just hang out.

In that moment it is, but in hindsight you know damn well they were using him as a token character lol

facts like I'm a Stan too but some people need to take a step back and gain some perspective

Documentaries are a paradox. And this debate will be a moo point regardless. You have to be as objective as absolutely possible to not show biases but obviously subjectivity will play it’s role. It’s just weird that the first 2 episodes were objective and just showing it was and then episode 3 turned into what felt like a smear campaign. Clearly much more subjective editing and writing.

Isnt it obvious he was very limited in the footage after?

my guy it's literally impossible for a documentary to be completely objective. by nature of a human being putting something together it will be subjective to some degree. it doesn't have to be intentional, but bias is present in every documentary you see, no matter the topic
