If you’re a fan of music, specifically modern hip-hop, you’re likely familiar with the brief, but big, career of Lil’ Peep. The artist, who died tragically from an overdose at the age of 21, rocketed to fame thanks to his incredibly loyal fanbase, that still to this day honors the late rapper’s life. Now, thanks to a new documentary, “Everybody’s Everything,” executive produced by none other than Terrence Malick, Lil’ Peep’s life and career will be available for all to experience.
As seen in the trailer for the film, “Everybody’s Everything” is a loving, honest glimpse into the life of Lil’ Peep, as he started as an unknown musician and rose to superstardom quickly. And of course, the sad circumstances surrounding his death are detailed, including the addiction issues.
We saw the film when it premiered at this year’s SXSW. In our review, we said the film might cover a tragic subject, but the doc is “also poignant and made with the utmost of love.”
As mentioned, the film is executive produced by Malick, who is actually a close friend to the musician’s family and lent his name to the documentary.
“Everybody’s Everything” will have one-night-only “fan screenings” nationwide on November 12 before the film opens up in select theaters on November 15.
Here’s the synopsis:
Executive produced by Terrence Malick, Everybody’s Everything is an intimate, humanistic portrait that seeks to understand an artist who attempted to be all things to all people. Creating a unique mix of punk, emo and trap, Lil Peep was set to bring a new musical genre to the mainstream when he died of a drug overdose at just 21 years old. Everybody’s Everything was produced by First Access Entertainment and Beamer Boy Productions, in association with Liza Womack (Ahr’s mother). The film was produced by Ben Soley, and executive produced by Terrence Malick, Liza Womack and Sarah Stennett.
