The palatial Southern adult entertainment club in Magic Mike XXL may be the stuff of fantasy, but the real Magic City in Atlanta is a strip club where artists’ dreams rise and fall.
The club is part striptease central, part A&R scouting zone, a place where the crowd’s reaction to a new artist —or lack thereof — may make or break his or her career.
A forthcoming GQ/Conde Nast productions documentary from The Queen of Versailles’ Lauren Greenfield takes a look at Magic City, with cameos from artists like Future, as well as managers, DJs, dancers and other personalities.
Watch a preview below.
The entire uncensored video will be available on Friday at The Scene.
