Pitchfork and Youtube  got together to produce Detroit State Of Mind, a 20 minute documentary on rapper Danny Brown and his hometown of Detroit.  The footage gives a unique behind the scenes look at the animated MC with his mother, father and brother, getting his haircut, recording in the studio with the Bruiser crew, performing some shows and talking about the city he grew up in.
