Executive produced by Drake and Jermaine Dupri, a press release reports that the series dives deep into the glitter, grit, and game-changing glow-up of the ATL club that turned trap anthems into platinum plaques and dancers into legends.
Viewers can expect real and raw reflections from celeb clientele like 2 Chainz, Nelly, Shaq, Quavo, Killer Mike, and Big Boi, all sharing raw recollections of their time at the infamous club.
The show also takes fans behind the curtain with founder Michael “Mr. Magic” Barney, who built the business brick by brick.
Magic City: An American Fantasy also centers the women behind the fantasy, including the dancers of past and present like GiGi McGuire, the DJs, and the dream-makers who transformed the club into a feminine fortress of fame and financial freedom.
According to an official release, the docuseries originally made waves at SXSW 2024, earning early buzz for its storytelling.
