American Boyband is a television series that originally aired on the Viceland network in 2017. The show documents the formation and experiences of the rap group Brockhampton, which was founded by Kevin Abstract, a solo artist and member of the group. The series explores the lives and creative processes of the group's diverse members, who come from all over the United States and include rappers, singers, producers, and designers. The show delves into the personalities and backgrounds of each individual, as well as their struggles and triumphs as they work to create a successful, cohesive group.

Throughout the series, viewers see the group brainstorming and rehearsing together as they prepare for their first live performances. They also witness the group's struggles to gain a following and promote their music on social media and online. Additionally, American Boyband explores the personal relationships and struggles of the group members, including their romantic relationships, family dynamics, and past traumas.

One aspect of the show that stands out is its exploration of issues of identity and representation. The members of Brockhampton are all young men of color, and their music often touches on themes of race, sexuality, gender, and mental health. In American Boyband, the group members openly discuss their experiences with these issues, providing a rare and valuable glimpse into the lives and perspectives of young people who are often marginalized or misunderstood by mainstream culture.

Despite the challenges and setbacks they face along the way, the members of Brockhampton continue to persevere and work towards their goals. The series culminates in the group's first live show, which is a huge success and marks a major turning point in their career.

Overall, American Boyband is a compelling and insightful look into the world of young, up-and-coming artists who are pushing boundaries and breaking barriers in the music industry. The show is both entertaining and thought-provoking, offering viewers a unique glimpse into the lives and creative processes of a group of talented, driven individuals.
