jeen-yuhs: La trilogie Kanye West

The first two parts which focus around Kanye making The College Dropout are electric. There's lot of amazing candid footage, and it's incredible seeing how much work went into that masterpiece. The final part changes the tone and depicts the troubles Kanye's been having recently. It's raw and honest. You see him in the middle of manic episodes and it's disturbing.

It's pretty great overall if you're even a little bit interested in Kanye. It seems mostly honest in it's depiction, and it's interesting seeing small quirks present at the beginning of his career take him over. There's a lot of talk about God and Christianity, especially towards the end, which can get off-putting if you're not religious.

As a fan of Kanye and someone who's favorite music album of all time is The College Dropout, I had mixed feelings about his personal antics over time and I kept wondering how much of that I would see in this documentary.

I wouldnt say much but I'd say this, with everything going on with Kanye right now in 2022, this was a solid reminder that behind all the fanfare, he is a human being grounded in humility and exceptional talent. I needed this reminder and I think everyone else needs it too.

Loving this look at Ye's life. You come to realize where this magnificent confidence and ego came from and rise to fame and success despite industry obstacles. It's endearing to watch and kudos to his friend that chronicled his life. Can't believe it's a film essentially composed almost exclusively of old footage.

I must say, when I first heard about this docuseries, I thought to myself, "yet another puff piece". But I was pleasantly surprised at how well it was put together. How well the struggle was captured, and how the world got to see a side of Kanye that many have chosen to ignore, the musical genius.

I have renewed respect for the man, even though I knew of his accolades in the music production scene, I get it now.

A very well put together documentary that shows how and where it all begun, and progressed. I encourage everyone to watch this, despite of your feelings about Kanye.

Last but not least, this highlights my take and passion for something I feel doesn't get enough attention, mental health.

Jeen-Yus had me glued to the screen. The documentary is long but I was engaged throughout. The first two parts gave me a lot of respect for Kanye. Part three broke my heart and it was hard to watch. No matter your opinion on Kanye, this behind the scenes look into Kanye West's rise to fame is engrossing for fans and non fans alike.
