have you seen E-40's 'Charlie Hustle: The Blueprint Of A Selfmade Millionaire? that could be something close...
and not in similar format, but i liked " MC: Why We Do It" & "The Art Of 16 Bars" by QD3 Ent.

Does "The Carter" tell Lil' Wayne's life story or what is it even about?

Yeah, that was a dope documentary. Are there any other documentaries like that? Damn it would be tight if there was an documentary like that made about "The Chronic", "Doggystyle", "Dogg Food" or some other classic Death Row album.

A little there are some aspects of his past but that comes more from the docu crew overseeing interviews where he gets asked those questions.

I expected nothing but seriously enjoyed it and seeing how he works/records - he is dedicated and relentless thats for sure, dude sets up a mic in his hotel room and spits, lives in the studio for days recording music. relentless. worth watching!

Thanks for the replies. I'll look into 16 bars. doesnt seem to be many to be honest. That Alan Yentob IMAGINE docu about Jay-Z is dope too.

If you a Dogg Pound fan you should check out "DPG Eulogy". A lot of information about the Death Row days and how the Pound got started and shit like that.
