Ye aka Kanye West, already one of the most influential and polarizing pop figures of his generation, is demanding control over an upcoming Netflix documentary poised to stir even more debate about his legacy.
“I’m going to say this kindly for the last time,” the Grammy-winning rapper wrote on Instagram on Friday, two days before the first peek at “jeen-yuhs: A Kanye Trilogy” is scheduled to be unveiled at the 2022 Sundance Film Festival. “I must get final edit and approval on this doc before it releases on Netflix.”
Billed as a “landmark documentary event” by the streamer, the four-and-a-half-hour film officially hits Netflix globally in three feature-length installments (titled “Act I: Vision,” “Act II: Purpose” and “Act III: Awakening”) starting Feb. 16.
