Now, a new documentary tells their story-May The Lord Watch: The Little Brother Story follows the rise, breakup, and reunion of Little Brother. A music documentary in the tradition of films like Beats Rhymes and Life or Zappa, May the Lord Watch details the vast impact of the preeminent 2000s group. The heart of the documentary lies in the unraveling and reconciliation between members Phonte and Big Pooh. Their relationship begins in the wake of their challenging upbringings in the South, strains while coming of age together in the music industry, and resolves with an enduring friendship, as the two men reunite and record their 2019 album May the Lord Watch. Told through never before seen archival footage, contemporary vérité scenes, and interviews from the group's members, peers, and family, the film's story unfolds in intimate detail under the framework of a 'UBN Made-for-TV Documentary', riffing on the fictional UBN Network created through comedy sketches on Little Brother albums.
