‘May The Lord Watch: The Little Brother Story’ Documentary

Back in 2022 Little Brother — Rapper Big Pooh, Phonte, and (formerly) producer 9th Wonder — revealed that a documentary on their beats, rhymes, and life was in the works. Well, following their acclaimed Made In Durham: A Little Brother Block Party, the pair have released May The Lord Watch: The Little Brother Story for the masses.

Directed by Holland Randolph Gallagher, the 100-minute doc “follows the rise, breakup, and reunion of Little Brother, detailing the vast impact of the preeminent 2000’s rap group.” “Little Brother entered this business independently and based on the current landscape, we see no need to change course. This film is a love letter to our fans, a celebration of the people who made us, and a testament to our core values of authenticity, ownership, and craftsmanship. It took us five years to complete this, and it finally feels right,” Phonte says.

Pooh adds, “One of the things I’ve been hearing people talk about is how our music was either shared with them or they shared our music with someone else, sometimes even forming life long bonds. YouTube is the perfect intersection where all demographics meet. Having the ability to release our documentary via YouTube felt like the perfect way to share our story with Little Brother fans while leaving open the possibility of introducing ourselves to an entirely new group of potential fans.”
