FOREST x HOLLYWOOD REPORTER!

Our latest commission We Need to Talk about Kanye (w/t) has been making waves in Hollywood! The BBC documentary will be accompanied by an 8 Part podcast series The Kanye Story (w/t), both of which are due out later this year!

The documentary will air on BBC Two and will be fronted by BAFTA award-winning investigative journalist Mobeen Azhar. Unfolding against the backdrop of Ye's 2024 election campaign, and at a time when his behaviour has sparked outrage and a re-evaluation of his place in popular culture, this one-off documentary follows Mobeen as he attempts to understand the complex journey that led Ye to become one of the most famous and creatively successful artists of his generation. But more recently, to condemnation and notoriety .

The podcast series will be produced by Forest Sounds for BBC Sounds! Each episode will invite new guests, who can bring an insight into Kanye’s life and dig deeper into his place in culture; starting with the early stratospheric success to the condemnation of later years.
