Long before Kanye West became one of the most famous people on the planet, he was a 19-year-old up-and-coming producer of beats trying to make a name for himself in the local Chicago rap scene. Enter comedian Coodie Simmons, host of a local cable access show, who — taking inspiration from the landmark documentary “Hoop Dreams” — decided to turn his camera full-time on Kanye, sensing the young rapper had what it took to make it big. Now, 24 years and over 300 hours of footage later, Kanye is a household name and Coodie's dreams for creating an epic documentary have also come true. Directed by Coodie and his longtime collaborator Chike Ozah, the new three-part Netflix docuseries, “jeen-yuhs: A Kanye Trilogy” is an unprecedented, longitudinal portrait of a huge global superstar that tracks, in real-time, Kanye West's rise to — and struggles with — fame. Joining Ken for a wide-ranging conversation about their remarkably intimate and beautifully crafted documentary, the captivating duo of Coodie & Chike (“Benji”, “A Kid from Coney Island”) take us on the long, winding journey that led from the streets of Chicago into the recording studios of New York City and LA, and, eventually, as Kanye became a global phenomenon, to such places as the Dominican Republic and China. What is it like to have Kanye's mother embrace you as a member of her own family — and then to have to face the wrenching task of putting together a memorial video of her life when she dies suddenly just a few years later? How does one make the hard decision, after filming one's “young brother” for decades, that, in certain uncomfortable situations, turning off the camera may be the right call? And, ever the comedian, why did Coodie think the comedic device of the “callback” would be the perfect way to make Kanye West's retainer (yes, the budding rap star wore a retainer) one of the film's most memorable recurring bits? As Coodie says in the documentary, “Everything happens for a reason.” “jeen-yuhs: A Kanye Trilogy” is currently streaming on Netflix.   Hidden Gems: Jo Jo Dancer, Your Life is Calling The Gods Must Be Crazy

Is er plek op aarde voor de geniale gekken op onze wereld? Een tijd lang leek het alsof Kanye West vooral achter de schermen zijn kunst – het produceren van beats en muziek – mocht laten zien. Het echte podium kwam pas later; maar zelf was hij allang overtuigd van zijn genialiteit. Inmiddels is er ongeveer niemand die Kanye niet kent, maar zijn zelfvertrouwen én zijn bipolariteit (zijn 'super power') lijken nu ook in zijn nadeel uit te pakken. De hele rise and misschien wel fall van Kanye is vastgelegd in de documentaireserie 'jeen-yuhs: A Kanye Trilogy', die je kan zien op Netflix. Zijn jeugdvriend Coodie volgde de rapper twintig jaar lang met een camera, en dat maakt dat je in dit epos van 4,5 uur écht een kijkje krijgt in het geniale en te gekke brein van een van de groten der aarde.

Coodie & Chike joins Ebro in the Morning to discuss details behind the 3-part Netflix Documentary showcasing Kanye West's rise to fame using rare footage from his life named 'Jeen-Yuhs'. They also discuss their relationship with Donda West, share stories about Kanye West, footage that was not used in the documentary including a Jay-Z freestyle, what it took to get Ye on board with the documentary, their relationship with the artist, and much more. 'Jeen-Yuhs' is available on Netflix now.  LISTEN TO HOT 97's NEWEST PODCAST "TAP IN WITH TT" ON: Apple Podcasts -https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/tap-in-with-tt/id1618314923 Hot97.com -Tap In With TT | Hot97 Amazon Podcasts - https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/d3104cc7-b28e-4e25-9884-5946219d0be6/tap-in-with-tt Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/0a2g28v979wHIY0Vlnrjul?si=a91f5e2a4d254f6d iHeart -Tap In With TT | iHeart See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Bonus Episode for The Family

Coodie (born January 18, 1971) and Chike (born April 6, 1978) are film directors, screenwriters, cinematographers, and producers. Coodie and Chike started directing together with their MTV buzz-worthy video for Kanye West entitled "Through the Wire", which was nominated for a MTV Viewers Choice Award, and won a Source Award for Best Music Video of the Year. They have continued their music video success directing "Two Words" and the third version of "Jesus Walks" off Kanye West's The College Dropout album, Pitbull's "Culo" video, Mos Def's "Ghetto Rock" video, Erykah Badu's controversial video "Window Seat" and most recently Lupe Fiasco's "Old School Love" video. The team started directing and producing long form music content with the bonus behind the scene video on Christina Aguilera's Back to Basics album and a music documentary for Wale's The Gifted album. Coodie & Chike received acclaim for their ESPN 30-for-30 film, Benji (2012), a film about a high school basketball player who was tragically killed. In 2013 they directed Good Morning, a short film for American Family Insurance. Good Morning debuted at the 2013 American Black Film Festival.

“jeen-yuhs” codirectors Coodie and Chike were smart to break up their documentary on Kanye West into three parts, especially where they did: “Act I: Vision” covers the earliest days of a future legend, “Act II: Purpose” zeroes in on the pivotal moment that he became a megastar, and “Act III: Awakening” explores the repercussions of that explosive success.The only problem is that, as the insiders who made the first two acts, Coodie and Chike got kicked outside for the third — a perhaps natural progression for the inner circle of an artist who, as an underdog, wanted every moment of his life documented but now, as a superstar, almost certainly does not. Particularly, that is, in the current climate, when the rest of the media hangs on his every public act or social-media missive (and justifiably or no, is not kind about them).As a result, “Awakening” feels more forlorn and distant than its predecessors, unsure of how to resolve a life and career story that obviously is not yet finished, wherein its documentarians no longer have the same access as they once did.“Awakening” opens with an act of hubris from Kanye West that seems prophetic (given his subsequent behavior) but which one imagines might have been charming at the moment he was hovering on the cusp of success: West gets into a real argument with frequent collaborator and fellow rapper Rhymefest for emphatically saying that Kanye is not a genius — yet. “Genius is developed through experience and hardship,” Rhymefest observes, “and I thought you were a genius before I saw Jay-Z make up a rap in five minutes.” Of course, Jay-Z had more than a decade of experience on West even before he released his debut album, but you still get the sense that West's beloved mother Donda may have at least slightly over-nurtured her son's confidence.Sadly, she died in 2007, taking with her the counterbalance and groundedness that kept him tethered to reality, although more than one montage showcases exactly how quickly West succumbed to delusions of grandeur — rationalizing his claims of being a genius, claiming to be to hip-hop what Michael Jackson was in the 1980s — years before she passed.Donda's death is widely acknowledged by critics in the media as West's “Rosebud,” and if you've paid attention to his behavior between then and now, it's easy to suggest her absence set him on a different path. Unfortunately, Coodie and Chike don't offer much more complexity to this widely-held theory, despite the mountains of footage that they recorded of the two of them during the formative years of his career.To be fair, it is undeniably touching to watch West and his mother sing “Hey Mama” together in his kitchen or to see how she props him up as his biggest and most tireless supporter. It's certainly possible that every bad decision he's made in 15 years originates from that understandably unmooring event in his life, but from a storytelling perspective, it behooves these would-be insiders to draw that conclusion with a bit more nuance than the average know-it-all critic.By Coodie's own admission, he and Chike began to lose touch with him even before Donda passed away; what becomes subtly fascinating to watch is the distance that grows between the camera and its subject as Kanye's star continues to rise, an official “team” assembles around him, and the documentarians' status downgrades to a part of his entourage.While years tick by without him being a part of Kanye's life, Coodie chronicles the birth and raising of his own daughter as a well-intentioned but unsuccessful effort to create the parallel narrative of his own life and career, while the footage of Kanye grows more packaged and distant. The filmmaker's sympathetic arms-length commentary on Kanye's exploits, from interrupting Taylor Swift at the MTV Video Music Awards in 2009 to his failed 2020 presidential bid, offer few insights that others haven't made before.Unexpectedly, Coodie gets an opportunity to follow Kanye at the tail end of his series of Sunday Service performances and his promotional tour for the accompanying album “Jesus Is King,” and later he decides to start assembling 20 years' worth of footage into a film as COVID-19 shuts down the country. Flying to the Dominican Republic in July 2020, Coodie not only captures footage of Kanye recording (and of the constantly shifting influences of religion, art, culture, and even pottery that drive his creativity,)but also of some uncomfortable conversations with real-estate partners that grow so unhinged that he actually stops filming.It's clear that this is a different Kanye West than the one he once knew, and Coodie seems to capitulate to the idea that his former friend has grown so successful and powerful and out of control that there's no way to turn that trajectory around, much less to intervene and comfort Kanye.As the documentary concludes, what audiences are left with is a series of images of Kanye West, a hip-hop prodigy turned superstar turned tabloid magnet, imploding as his bi-polar disorder scuttles his presidential campaign — and seemingly everything else in his life — while incessant, grandiose aspirations push him into increasingly unhealthy obsessions, most of all about himself. His interactions with the world have formed a feedback loop that seems to simultaneously reinforce his larger-than-life visions and ruin the prospect of him achieving any sort of ordinary living, much less happiness.Coodie is right to be sad about it, and so should viewers, but what “jeen-yuhs” underscores is that with Kanye West, the knob is broken off and the volume is turned up too high, so even if you want to be compassionate and forgiving, even the things that you might like are too obnoxious to want to experience. Of course, it seems like a sensation that is more common to high-profile celebrities than ordinary people would ever have the opportunity to know, but if Coodie and Chike's documentary doesn't tell us quite enough about Kanye West that we don't already know, it manages to capture that phenomenon and to localize it in someone. At least we now have a fuller portrait when we decide to judge him.★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★

Part II opens with a heartfelt home video dated May 17, 1990, capturing Ye and his family enjoying time together. As the camera pans the room, it eventually shows a young Ye (a few weeks shy of his 13th birthday) sporting a white top with black polka dots eager to drop some fire bars.“What's up in effect and it's time to select,” the superstar-to-be begins. “The mind of Kanye is the place to be/ Can't you see it's me/ And I'm freshly/ Moving and grooving and proving to you/ I can be moving/ And yo/ I'm pursuing the rap art fo' sure.”He finishes off affirming, “I'm sway in top place/ I'm not going back/ When I wear the polka dots 'cause that's what I got/ I'm def and I'm fresh and I am the best/ Nothing less can come from West.”The documentary also shows footage from inside Roc-A-Fella's “Paid in Full” press conference, which took place in New York two decades ago, in October 2002. When Coodie asked Dame Dash about the label's plans for then “new artist Kanye West,” the co-founder of Roc-A-Fella said, “Kanye is definitely a ‘Roc-A-Fella.' He's an entrepreneur [and] he's promoting himself as we speak.”At the time, Dash and other attendees didn't know Ye would eventually become a billionaire. “Every time I see him… he has a f—ing camera with him and he does really good music,” Dash said.When given a chance to speak for himself, Ye said, “I definitely think I'm bringing an entire new market to Roc-A-Fella … Because I went through the struggle of being broke, I'm like everybody sitting out here.”At the time, the label still recognized Ye primarily as a producer, but his goal was to become a distinguished rapper. So he set his sights on appearing on Jay-Z's upcoming sequel to The Blueprint.As West continued trying to find his footing as a standout rapper within his new Roc-A-Fella label, he decided that landing a feature on Jay-Z's seventh studio album The Blueprint 2: The Gift and the Curse would be the next big thing to advance his career trajectory.“[This is] just a long-a– way from f—ing rapping in my mama's crib,” a visibly proud Ye said after finishing his verse, which appears on their collaborative song “The Bounce.”“Closed mouths don't get fed, you understand? He wouldn't have been on that,” Jay-Z said in a clip. And when HOV was later asked how he feels about West, the Roc-A-Fella co-founder said, “Ye West! Hot! Fire! Put my money on him.”As many longtime fans know, Ye broke his jaw in three places following a near-deadly car crash while leaving an October 2002 studio session. At the time, many thought his career would be over.But in true West fashion, despite the setback, he decided to push through with his song “Through the Wire.” Cameras followed West as he went to a dentist appointment following the incident.“In my opinion, you should have physical therapy to get your jaw mobilized,” his dentist recommended. “If you don't mobilize it, it's gonna get stuck.” Still, West was eager to appear in an upcoming music video.After its November 2003 debut, “Through the Wire” became a top 20 hit on the Billboard Hot 100.Jamie Foxx appears in the documentary while recording their collaborative groove “Slow Jamz.” The song, which also includes Twista, topped the Hot 100. After recording the hit inside Foxx's at-home studio, West continued borrowing studio time from other artists because Roc-A-Fella had tabled the production of his album College Dropout due to the accident. While recording their song “Breathe In Breathe Out” together, Ludacris had some encouraging words to say about West.“Kanye West, one of the top-notch producers and top-notch rappers in the game,” Ludacris began. “I ain't gonna lie to you, he surprised the sh– out of me. Believe that man, everybody already knows about his production. They're about to find out he got skills. Believe me, the n—a got skills.”During another recording session, Pharrell appears visibly surprised to see Ye's freestyle lyricism. “I didn't know!” Pharrell repeatedly said. “I just thought it was [producing] the music. I didn't know. This guy is like … I'm so impressed.”The proud rapper then played “Through the Wire” to gauge Pharrell's thoughts on the track. “That sh– is phenomenal. You're one of my favorite artists,” Pharrell said. “I only heard like two records. You're gonna make it.” He then urged Ye to “keep the same hunger” even after he makes it in the industry.Along the way, West also gained support from Chicago-native comedian DeRay Davis, who soon became the voice of Ye's College Dropout album skits.Still, Roc-A-Fella kept the album on the far back burner after Ye's accident, so he continued producing beats to stay afloat.About four years ahead of of her 2007 death, Ye's mom Donda West declared “Hey Mama” as her most adored song by her son. “That's my favorite song,” the doting mom said. As they walked outside together, Donda said, “Kanye, that was so magnificent what you did. You snapped. I'm telling you, you did. Did you hear me, I was like, ‘Kanye! Alright, give it up.'”She went on, “You said some heavy political stuff in between … I was like, ‘Oh snap!'” All this went on as Ye continued treating his severely injured jaw five months after the car accident. West eventually decided to postpone his reconstructive surgery to continue recording College Dropout. Later in the episode, Donda declares that 2004 will be their best year yet during a New Year's Eve party at her son's first Los Angeles home. “It's just gonna get better,” she said. ” … We're gonna make it, we're gonna do it .. for everybody on the team.”After planning the release party for the “Through the Wire” music video just one day in advance, Kanye opened up about some of the struggles he was experiencing with his label.“I don't know if you know this, but my album keeps getting pushed back,” he told the audience of supporters. “And I don't know if you know this, but my marketing budget is not open. I don't know if you know this, but they actually haven't paid for me to have the black-and-white shot that people get when they originally get signed. I got signed a year ago.”He went on, “The reason I make tracks at this point is to have enough money to pay for my T-shirts, to have enough money to pay for my mixtapes.”When Dash joined the party, Ye continued, “This video cost me $33,000 that I paid for out of my pocket. We put this together to get the buzz going so I can get me a release date.” He then gave a special shout-out to Clarence “Coodie” Simmons for shooting the footage.Finally as Ye started to gain major traction on radio, TV appearances and more, Dash admitted, “I'm not gonna lie, I never really paid him too much attention. I was like, ‘Stick to the beats, kid.'”He went on, “The thing I liked about him the most is he never tried to be like anybody. He was very intent on being original and doing things his way. On another level, he's always controlled his own destiny.”“The impact of The College Dropout forever changed the culture, but it felt like the bigger Kanye got, the further we grew apart,” Coodie said. Then Ye went on tour without him.As their friendship with Ye appeared to be dwindling, Coodie and Chike began directing music videos for other artists. In 2004, they went on to document John Legend's making of “Ordinary People.”But then West circled back to Coodie & Chike to shoot his “Jesus Walks” music video in Chicago after some failed attempts with other directors he originally felt were a better fit for the gig. Clearly, the friendship was rekindled as Coodie & Chike are the directors of Jeen-yuhs: A Kanye Trilogy. After The College Dropout finally dropped, Ye earned 10 Grammy nominations for his debut studio album.★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★

Kanye has reached out to Drake to narrate the forthcoming Jeen-Yuhs documentary. There's only one problem. The documentary already has a narrator: Coodie. And replacing him would, I think, be kind of devastating to the whole thing. We discuss. If you'd like to watch this in video form, then check out our YouTube channel.

The much talked about Kanye West documentary by Coodie & Chike hits Netflix soon, and I was lucky enough to see it early. Here's my review of Part 2 (with a part 1 recap), getting into the making of The College Dropout, from Kanye's car crash, to the creation of Through the Wire, to Pharrell's emotional moment, to Kanye finally dropping the album and ascending into stardom. We even bring in breaking discussion about Ye wanting Drake to narrate the doc and why that probably wouldn't work. If you'd like to watch this in video form, then check out our YouTube channel.

We have some updates about Donda 2! Theophilus London shared either a message from Kanye or lyrics to a song. Vory has arrived in Los Angeles to work on the album. Digital Nas is working on the album. And documentary-extraordinaire, Coodie, is with Ye right now, hopefully meaning there's no last-minute issues with the forthcoming Netflix Jeen-Yuhs doc.

On our Jackie Robinson/mid season finale episode, all the marauders are back to record and back to give their hot takes starting on Kayne West's jeen-yuhs Netflix documentary coming in February (16th) and Mr. West lashing out at directors Coodie & Chike and Netflix to let him in to have the final say and see on his upcoming documentary to (as of this recording) no avail. We ask if the upcoming four and a half hour documentary will be better with or without Kanye's hands on the film. Next up, social media keeps adding more gas to the fire that is Eminem finally getting a Verzuz battle in the potential future with some saying that the favorite to be his opponent would be Busta Rhymes. We ask if Busta is Em's best Verzuz opponent in the future or if someone else is lurking in the shadows waiting to beat Eminem. After that, lyrics has been used in courtrooms against musicians for decades when crimes are committed, Jay Z and Meek Mill want to change that narrative to present a bill in New York that prevents that from happening that has now being sent to the Senate floor. We discuss if music lyrics should or shouldn't be used against rappers/musicians in court. Later, Bow Wow voices his disappointment via Twitter by calling out fans after someone saying to name three of his songs if a person put a gun to their head. With him calling fans out, the fans have responded by clowning the rapper on social media. We voice our opinions on why people hate Bow Wow. All that plus, lots of laughs, J. Cole albums ranked and a lot more!

It's so unlike Kanye to delay something. But according to one person who claims to have a source with high-level information, Kanye has delayed the release of the Netflix documentary. Is this true? Who knows. But does it track with everything Kanye-related? Absolutely. So we'll see if Coodie and Chike's Kanye doc ever sees the light of day. Or if it's just tied to the release of DONDA and will drop on the same day. #Kanye #KanyeWest #Netflix #DONDA If you'd like to watch this in video form, then check out our YouTube channel.

This time, on "I'm Not a Peach Crayon." The sisters discuss a random find from award-winning directors Coodie and Chike. Soul City is an anthology series in the vein of The Twilight Zone and Tales from the Crypt that exposes the multicultural world of a select American city and its urban population through the lens of psychological horror stories. Season One is set in New Orleans.

Ryan Chanatry is the General Manager of the streaming service Topic. The streaming service on its home page refers to itself as, "Borderless Entertainment," and is home to the series Soul City, an amazing anthology series following the footsteps of Twilight Zone and Tales from the Crypt (click here to listen to our interview with show creators Coodie and Chike). We spoke with Chantary about the rise of niche programming services like Topic and the alternatives they give to the big three, if there will be a way to switch from service to service without taking multiple steps versus the channel surfing available through standard cable and dish services and the possible dangers of only living in a bubble that feels one particular worldview. Chantary also filled us in on how streaming is changing how we watch cable, though various reports the idea of completely cutting the is pre-mature. In fact, according to Topic’s survey, of people that get access via cable or streaming, 40% have both, 33% are cable only and 28% are streaming only. Additionally, some avid watchers are increasingly looking for niche content. The average number of services people use monthly sits at five with the top 10 percent of subscribers pulling content from 10+ places. A marked increase from prior studies. Topic subscription beings at $5.99 a month and offers a free 7-day trial. Check out the interview with Ryan Chantary above and follow topic on Twitter @topicstories and on Instagram @topicstories.

Brian interviews filmmakers Coodie and Chike about their streaming series, "Soul City."

Soul City is an anthology series following in the footsteps of shows like The Twilight Zone, Amazing Stories and Tales from the Crypt, which streams on Topic. The show was created by long time friends Coodie and Chike that decided to set season one of Soul City in the multicultural hub of New Orleans, where things often go bump in the night. You may be familiar with their work having been the acclaimed directors of Kanye West’s Through the Wire music video and ESPN’s 30 for 30 film Benji. Episodes feature Omar J. Dorsey (Queen Sugar), Chad Coleman (The Wire), and PJ Morton (Maroon 5). We spoke with Coodie and Chike about having grown up in both Chicago and New Orleans respectively, how they stay true to their Christian faith and their ability to avoid evil spirits when filming a series that touches upon darker forces from the other world. Soul City is currently streaming on Topic and can be found by clicking here. Follow Coodie and Chike on Instagram: @officialcoodieandchike, Coodie @coodierock and Chike @cozah. Editor's Note: There was some slight audio difficulty with Chike's phone reception, but we managed to get it through to you.

Directing Duo Clarence "Coodie" Simmons & Chike Ozah, better known as Coodie & Chike, have so much infectiously positive energy and perspective from all their years in the business. We're thrilled to have them on this week's episode of Overshare. Coodie & Chike started collaborating in the early 2000s and got their big break directing Kanye West’s music video “Through the Wire,” followed by music videos for “Two Words” and “Jesus Walks." They had less than two days to put "Jesus Walks" together from scratch, making it nothing short of a creative miracle, not to mention a classic. Their recounting of that experience with host Justin Gignac is a celebration in the art of scrappiness.Coodie & Chike went on to work with big acts like Pitbull, Erykah Badu, Lupe Fiasco, and Mos Def. In 2007, they founded their own production company, Creative Control. They’ve since directed ESPN "30 for 30" documentary Benji, BET documentary Muhammed Ali: The People’s Champ, and just released A Kid from Coney Island about Stephon Marbury.In this episode, you will learn that not having the time or money or resources to make great work are just excuses. You’ll also learn that wherever your happiness is coming from right now, that’s what really matters. This conversation is packed with insights and endless positivity.  Follow Overshare (@oversharetalks) and Working Not Working (@wnotw) on Instagram. SHOW NOTES:Coodie & Chike ( @officialcoodieandchike / @coodierock / @cozah)Kanye West's debut album The College DropoutChike's favorite craft cocktail bars - Dutch Kills, Dullboy, Pegu Club, Death & Co, Car Wash filmErnie Barnes' painting "The Sugar Shack"Bill WithersArtist Nina Chanel ( website / Instagram )Coodie's favorite album as a teenager, LL Cool J's BADChike's favorite album as a teenager Big Daddy Kane's Taste of ChocolateCoodie & Chike's videos for Kanye: Through the Wire, Two Words, Jesus WalksChannel Zero TVPitbull "Culo" music videoErykah Badu "Window Seat" music videoMatt & Kim "Lessons Learned" music video that inspired Erykah BaduLupe Fiasco feat.
