Featuring interviews with Andre 3000, Big Boi, Puff Daddy, Future, Ludacris, L.A. Reid, 2 Chainz, CeeLo and more, this is the story of the rise and fall of music's most prolific unsung heroes. From Flavor Unit and the producers of Lil Wayne's "The Carter" documentary, this is the Art of Organized Noize.

Must See For Any Fans Of Organized Noize And Southern Hip-Hop
22 March 2016 | by (United States) – See all my reviews

I got a chance to see one of the first showings of this during SXSW. This documentary is inspirational, and even surprisingly funny at times. I have seen some of this footage before on Youtube and other documentaries, but the majority of it was new to me. There are lots of great interviews throughout. I'd recommend this for any fan of Organized Noize and the amazing list of musicians that they have worked with (Outkast, Goodie Mob, Joi, TLC, En Vogue, Lil' Will, Cool Breeze, Witchdoctor, Kilo Ali, Parental Advisory, Curtis Mayfield, Ludicrous, etc). It was very cool to get an inside look at where everything started, and get some insight into their production technique. I'll definitely be watching this again soon on Netflix. 10/10
