Description
Directing Duo Coodie & Chike got their big break directing Kanye West’s music video “Through the Wire,” followed by music videos for “Two Words” and “Jesus Walks." They have since worked with big acts like Pitbull, Erykah Badu, Lupe Fiasco, and Mos Def, founded their own production company called Creative Control, and directed docs for ESPN "30 for 30" and BET. Their latest release is "A Kid from Coney Island" about Stephon Marbury. In this conversation with host Justin Gignac, you will learn that not having the time or money or resources to make great work are just excuses, and that wherever your happiness is coming from right now, that’s what really matters. This episode is packed with insights and endless positivity.
