Opening the door to a messy room, still littered with musical equipment and posters of famous rappers, childhood friend Eugene McNair explains what the 'lab' was like during those formative musical years.

'It was like damn-  he likes girls, he likes clothes, he likes music, he likes African s, he likes art and you know we all jam [sic].' 

Revealing hip-hop's DIY roots, Eugene explained how the pair would record music in the bedroom with a keyboard in one corner and a tape-deck in another.

The documentary shows Kanye's suburban upbringing with his college lecturer mother Donda West, and influence of Black Panther activist father Ray West. 

Alongside Jay-Z, the pair formed an all-conquering partnership in 2011, when their platinum selling joint album Watch The Throne preceded a sold out world tour.

But before the critically acclaimed albums, awards, controversy, celebrity marriage and global fashion range, Kanye West was an art-school dropout from Chicago.

And in a music genre built on rivalries, his relationship with Jay-Z started out in an unusually harmonious manner.

Jay-Z, already a bonafide star with his own Roc-A-Fella Records music label, first encountered the cocky upstart Kanye shortly after the Chicago star had moved to New York to find fame.

Given the chance to play his beats to Jay-Z, he left the New York icon so impressed that the majority of Jay-Z's next album had Kanye's fingerprints all over it.

Before long Kanye was signed to Roc-A-Fella and then - fearing he was being pigeon holed as a producer - showed his prolific rapping prowess on The College Dropout - a critical and commercial success which propelled him to stardom.

But following his marriage to reality TV superstar Kim Kardashian and a string of high-profile outbursts, the pairs' relationship started to break down.

Recently, Kanye was filmed onstage attacking his former friend in a bizarre rant.

Midway through his performance in Sacramento, U.S. Kanye stopped to shout: 'Jay-Z call me bruh, you still ain't call me. Jay-Z I know you got killers. Please don't send em at my head. Just call me [sic]'

Before taking aim at Jay-Z's wife, Beyonce: 'Beyonce I was hurt, cause I heard you wouldn't perform unless you won video of the year over me and over "hotline bling"

'F
winning, f looking cool. Get ready to have a field day press. Get ready - because the shows over.'

The rapper then dropped the mic and left the stage much to crowds frustration.

In the meantime, Kanye has been recovering from a nervous breakdown and has reportedly begun making new music again for his next album.

While Jay-Z released his own album 4.44 last month, providing a striped down, more reflective version of himself appearing to apologise to Beyonce for his alleged infidelities.

The film depicts the tale of creativity versus commercial gain, inner-city deprivation versus suburban aspiration, of right versus left.

Documentary director Nico Wasserman said: 'In the process of building their empires Jay-Z and Kanye have provided a spine tingling soundtrack for a generation. 

'Their story goes beyond their music and illegal content has opened up discussions on everything from class barriers to mental health.' 

Rob Coldstream, Commissioning Editor, Special Factual, added: 'Arguably two of the coolest and most influential artists in the world, their incredible life stories offer a fascinating new twist on the American dream. 

'These are two mega-personalities whose success and rivalry has captured the public's imagination.' 


Public Enemies: Jay-Z v Kanye, produced by ACME Films, is on Channel 4 this summer
