Kanye West documentary series
If reports are true, we're getting a Kanye West documentary series later this year.
According to Billboard, it's been in the making for over two decades, and features never before seen footage of the star.
The outlet report Netflix acquired it for $30m, however, a source for Variety claims that figure isn't, 'accurate.'

The series is reportedly directed by Clarence "Coodie" Simmons and Chike Ozah.
You might know them better for their names, Coodie & Chike.
The pair have worked with Kanye on numerous other projects, so it makes sense that they're involved.
They directed and produced Kanye's 2004 music video Jesus Walks (Version 3) and Through the Wire.
The duo also worked on the 2019 Netflix documentary, A Kid From Coney Island.
It's reported their company, Creative Control, will team up with TIME Studios to produce this new documentary series.

According to Billboard, Coodie has been filming Kanye since the late 90s.
