Step inside the velvet ropes. The official trailer for Magic City: An American Fantasy is here — and it’s giving the legendary Atlanta strip club its long-overdue close-up.
If you’ve ever listened to rap, you’ve heard the name. Magic City isn’t just a club — it’s a cultural landmark that’s birthed careers, shifted politics, and set the blueprint for Atlanta’s nightlife, sound, and style.
Premiering Friday, August 15 at 10PM ET/PT on Starz (right after the BMF season finale — perfect timing), this five-part docuseries peels back the curtain with exclusive interviews from Drake, T.I., 2 Chainz, Jermaine Dupri, Big Boi, Killer Mike, Quavo, and more.

Created by Cole Brown and directed by Charles Todd, Magic City: An American Fantasy dives deep into the “Black Studio 54” where new music broke, dancers became icons, and one night could change your life. It’s the place where B.M.F. made their mark and even Stacey Abrams got out the vote.
From its 1985 beginnings under Michael “Mr. Magic” Barney to its role in shaping the sound of Southern hip-hop, this isn’t just a nostalgia trip — it’s the untold story of a space where politics, art, and hustle all collided under one neon-lit roof.
The series will stream new episodes every Friday on the Starz app, with on-demand and linear TV premieres following August 22.
So whether you’ve only heard about it in rap lyrics or you’ve actually walked through those famous doors, get ready — this is Magic City like you’ve never seen it before.
