The critically-acclaimed Lil Wayne documentary, "The Carter," topped iTunes' movie list last week, beating out downloads of "Michael Jackson's This Is It," and Disney doc "Earth."
"Having our Lil Wayne 'The Carter' documentary place in the Top 10 on both U.S. and Canadian iTunes store within the first 48 hours, competing neck and neck with multi-million dollar studio films, such as 'Bruno' and 'GI Joe' during Christmas season is quite a feat for a self distributed indie doc and beyond our expectations," producer QD3 told AllHipHop.com. "We are very excited about continuing to innovate within the digital space."
The new film provides an in-depth look at the superstar rapper, Lil Wayne, who is considered by many one of the "best rappers alive."
Director Adam Bhala Lough and crew followed Weezy around the world for nearly to capture comprehensive and personal interviews with the rapper and provide insights from those that know him best.
It dropped on November 17th, a week before Thanksgiving, and has since received rave reviews from major publications.
"The Carter has found a way to translate beyond the headphones that makes it one of the top-five greatest hip-hop documentaries of all-time," said the Huffington Post.
QD3 Entertainment's "The Carter" is currently available on iTunes for $14.99, or on DVD at Amazon.com.
