Sundance2022 premiered the first chapter of Netflix's 'Jeen Yuhs,' a three-part docuseries on the rise of Kanye West filmed by someone who was there — and gives you a compelling, once-in-a-million hip-hop superhero origin story
Simmons likes him. The baby-faced 21-year-old’s got hustle, and a great ear. Something gives the host the feeling that he should keep filming this guy. And filming him. And filming him.
You never really know that you’re experiencing one of those lifechanging moments until you look back at it years or decades later, and can clearly see where taking the road less traveled made all the difference, etc. Butis already predicated on the fact that Simmons’ gamble paid off, for him and his subject — and for us.
And judging from what the initial chapter of this “Kanye trilogy” shows you — Sundance is gifting Coodie and his co-director Chike Ozah’s three-part look at the rise of Ye with a premiere, butthe first part; the whole thing hits theaters on Feb. 10th and drops on Netflix on Feb. 16th — it was a perfect combination of being at the right place, at the right time, with the right amount of hunger, drive and bars.
You just still wish the fest and the filmmakers had been able to show all of this in a single back-to-back screening, since Part One ends with West’s accident in Los Angeles that leaves him with a fractured jaw. So much is on the horizon: “Through the Wires,” chipmunk soul, a Hail Mary DIY pass,superstardom, Grammys, Kanyemania, Kanye’s mania — Coodie is there for all of it, cameras rolling.
