What's the Story?
Based on the popular Spotify playlist, RapCaviar Presents is a documentary series that spotlights contemporary hip-hop artists. Each episode focuses on a different artist, showing their unique contributions to music and culture, as well as the issues they face both personally and professionally within the music industry.
Is It Any Good?
Episodic documentary series are a mixed bag by nature, with each installment dependent on how unique the subject is and how in-depth the directors are able to go. While most music docs focus on pop history, RapCaviar Presents looks at contemporary hip hop culture. That's a double-edged sword. On one hand, the focus on artists like City Girls or Polo G feels exciting and fresh compared to the legends whose stories typically get told over and over again in these things. On the other hand, there's more pressure for the series to show the artists only in a positive light, which means that each episode can only go so deep.
