I just finished watching The Defiant Ones on Netflix. What a great documentary!
When I started watching it, I didn’t expect to be so drawn in. But it’s wonderfully filmed and the story of the business of gansgsta rap and Beats headphones is mesmerizing. I always knew of Dre as a rapper, but now I found out even more about what being a producer meant. Also, Jimmy Iovine. Going from producing for John Lennon in the 70s to building Beats and what would eventually become Apple Music, now that’s a story.
If you have the time, see it. You won’t regret it. Even if you’re not into gangsta rap or anything like that.
