Jermaine Dupri has teamed up with Cole Brown, Jami Gertz (co-owner of the Atlanta Hawks), and Drake’s DreamCrew Entertainment to produce a three-part documentary series, “Magic City: An American Fantasy.”
Magic City is an iconic strip club in Atlanta, GA with a history spanning nearly four decades. And thanks to Hip-Hop artists, the establishment has become well-known globally.
“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,” said Dupri.
The documentary series “An American Fantasy” will delve into the rich history of Magic City, offering insights into its origins and the club’s founder, Michael “Mr. Magic” Barney. Additionally, the series will shed light on the experiences of the women who have been part of the staff at this renowned adult entertainment venue.
“This is a unique story of Black entrepreneurship and empire-building in a city that is the beating heart of Black culture,” says series creator Cole Brown. “I’m ecstatic to be working with a team that will give this story the authenticity and platform it deserves.”
“An American Fantasy” will explore the relationship between Magic City and its prominent hip-hop stars like Jermaine Dupri, Future, and Migos. Directed by Charles Todd, the series includes interviews with notable celebrities such as 2 Chainz, Nelly, Shaquille O’Neal, Quavo, Killer Mike, and Big Boi, providing an intriguing glimpse into the cultural connection between the club and these influential figures.
“The inner workings of Magic City and its prevalence in Hip-Hop are remarkably mysterious – it’s a wonder the story has yet to be told,” states executive producer Jami Gertz. “Atlanta is my adopted home and a place I’m looking forward to celebrating through this story.”
