Kanye West is all set to be the star of BBC’s new documentary. The singer may have gone underground but remains the main topic of discussion in the media regardless of his absence. It is perhaps his magnetism or his actions that manage to bring up his name in almost every conversation, whether in music, fashion, or politics.

The ambitious entertainer is not short of his share of controversies. Any other celebrity would have been canceled for the conduct of this kind. But Ye has managed to make people create a documentary. This time, it will tell his life story against the backdrop of his second attempt at the presidency through the 2024 elections.

How the BBC will showcase Kanye West through his 2024 elections

No one took Ye seriously when he announced his presidential campaign in 2020. But not only did he stand for the elections, he surprisingly managed to gain 60,000 votes. For 2024, he has decided to give it another go, which will be the main backdrop of BBC’s documentary We Need to Talk About Kanye. As per CalssifiedMarketing, the documentary will unravel answers to his phenomenal popularity. At one point, Ye even confessed to becoming a candidate, so the government would be forced to check his finances. After his anti-Semitic remarks and distance from collaborators, his flow of income came to a halt.

There is already a Jeen-yuhs: A Kanye Trilogy documentary showcasing his rise and life, which was released last year. But the upcoming one will try to understand the complicated personality and his controversies in the last few months. Currently, the entertainer is underground but likely on some new project.

As he continues to avoid paparazzi, the BBC is set to launch not one but two projects focusing on him.

We Need to Talk About Kanye documentary will have investigative journalist Mobeen Azhar taking the lead. He made the Britney Spears documentary The Battle for Britney, which brought her conservatorship issue into the highlight. Abacus Media Rights have already sold rights to several broadcasters across the world in pre-sale. Parallelly, an eight-episode series called The Kanye Story will be released. Each guest will be someone who has worked closely with the singer as they talk about their encounters. The documentary is said to release by the end of this year.
