For his new mixtape White Friday, Yo Gotti wanted to make sure his team would work in the best possible conditions. He also wanted camera crews following him around for nine days -- the length of time it would take to cut music. The result is a documentary series called "Behind the Nine;" the first part premiered today on Complex.
"Behind the Nine" introduces us to the main guys on Yo Gotti's team, his entrepreneurial frame of mind, and their luxurious fortress of solitude in the high hills of California set up to give them peace of mind while they navigate the task at hand.
"I challenged myself to do this in nine days in the house with my homies," the Memphis rapper said. "It was the type of energy I needed to go back to the original feel of Cocaine Muzik."
The ninth installment of the CM mixtape series White Friday is available now on iTunes.
