Drake and Jermaine Dupri are two of the biggest names in hip-hop, and now they are joining forces to tell the story of Magic City, Atlanta's most famous strip club. It's no surprise that these two have joined forces to create "Magic City: An American Fantasy," a three-part documentary series which will delve into the history of this iconic establishment.
The documentary will focus on the story of Magic City's founder, Michael "Mr. Magic" Barney, and the women who helped make it the legendary "Black Studio 54." Launched in 1985, the club served as a launching pad for countless artists, living up to its motto, "If the girls in Magic City dance to it, it's a hit."
This series is a production of several collaborators, including So So Def founder Jermaine Dupri and Drake's DreamCrew Entertainment. Adel "Future" Nur and Peter Nelson are executive producers, with Michael Mauldin and Jermaine Dupri also serving as executive producers.
Jermaine Dupri commented on the documentary, saying "Magic City is a second home for me. It's the one place where celebrities, hustlers, politicians, and Atlanta locals all come together. I've watched it evolve over the years from a local joint to an internationally-recognized spot. It's about time we tell this story the right way."
The documentary will chronicle the rise, and ultimate fall, of Magic City, through the eyes of the people who witnessed it all, including 2 Chainz, Nelly, Shaquille O'Neal, Quavo, Killer Mike, Big Boi, and others. Cole Brown, the creator of the series, hopes to give this story the "authenticity and platform it deserves."
Magic City is an inspiring example of Black entrepreneurship and empire-building in a city that is the heart of Black culture. Through this documentary, viewers will gain an understanding of the importance of Magic City and its influence on hip-hop culture.
