Unexpectedly, a documentary showing Ye making his 2021 DONDA album has surfaced. The short video that runs just a little under five minutes showed up as the lone upload on a YouTube channel named BRND.

Artistically edited, the surfaced documentary shows scenes of Ye in the studio and backstage during his first listening event for DONDA. A major part of the video highlights the unique aspect of Ye taking over the Mercedes Benz Stadium in Atlanta, the location of the show, and the place where he mastered the album. Throughout the documentary we see Playboi Carti, Rick Rubin, and Pusha T taking part in the making of the project.

An interesting moment shows Ye discussing the removal of Jay-Z from his “Jail” track due to him not attending the album listening party.

Watch the documentary showing Ye making DONDA above.
