Watch the trailer French Montana’s forthcoming doc below:
French had previously spoken about For Khadija in an interview with Apple Music’s Ebro Darden for an episode of The Message.
“Well, this documentary just tells my immigrant story basically, and all the people that followed me from the day that I started till now,” he said. “I feel like a lot of people know me, but a lot of people just know me by the music. A lot of people know me from me dating people. It could be this, it could be that, but I want people to know me for the right reasons and I feel like this documentary just is more based on the struggle.

“We was on welfare, to me getting shot, to me meeting Chinx, me meeting Max B. Max B be getting 75 years in jail. It’s the whole thing. It’s the whole enchilada. Me being almost blackballed after he went to jail. Me just going through all the obstacles.”
Montana continued: “Shout out to Drake for helping me do it. Shout out to Puff. Shout out to Max B for letting them cameras come inside that maximum security prison and helping me document it.

“Shout out to my mother. She never been on nothing. That was her first one and it just shows that me, her and my father came here not even speaking English and it shows that your temporary moment doesn’t have nothing to do with your long-term.”
The trailer doesn’t disclose a release date for the project, and it remains unclear how Montana plans to distribute it.
News of the doc comes after French Montana recently became the most streamed African-born artist in history.
The Bronx native took to Instagram in February with a post announcing the news. He then shared several photos, including the list of songs that have been certified gold or multi-platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America.
