Variety mentions the limited documentary will be co-directed by Coodie Simmons and Chike Ozah, better known as the director duo Coodie and Chike. The three-act documentary will follow West’s 2- year journey. It will feature behind-the-scenes footage of the Chicago rapper as he evolves from artist to businessman and the global brand he’s grown to be. The documentary is said to also explore his failed 2020 presidential bid and the impactful death of his mother, Donda West.

Donda also broke the record for most-streamed artist and album in one day for the entire year. It became the most-played album on its first day of release on Apple Music ever.

Coodie and Chike revisit working with Kanye West after collaborating on his 2004 music video for “Jesus Walks” and “Through the Wire.”
