- Start date
Veteran radio personality Angie Martinez is set to make her directorial debut with a feature-length documentary on seminal hip-hop figure DJ Clark Kent.
God’s Favorite DJ: The Story of DJ Clark Kent will be produced in partnership with Green Leaf Productions and Mark Sparks Productions, and it will include appearances by popular acts like Jay-Z, DJ Khaled, DJ D-Nice and more.
The synopsis of God’s Favorite DJ: The Story of DJ Clark Kent reads: “[This doc] tells the story of a man who spent the last four decades uninterruptedly as an architect, teacher, and unsung hero within Hip-Hop. The world class DJ, producer and sneaker aficionado takes us back to watershed moments when he single-handedly altered history; like when he convinced Shawn Carter to believe in the future of Jay-Z or taught the Notorious B.I.G. to perform like a star and coached Lil Kim through her first studio session. Directed by award-winning media personality and creator of the IRL (In Real Life) Podcast Angie Martinez, the documentary illuminates how much Clark’s DNA appears in several corners of present pop culture — from the stars for whom he composes music (Kanye West, Mariah Carey, Rick Ross) to his 2024 sneaker collaboration with Nike that now resells for over $10K.”
