Jermaine Dupri is no stranger to setting the tone for summer, and this year, he’s doing it big. The GRAMMY® Award-winning producer and cultural visionary just dropped his latest single, “Magic City Money”, a blazing-hot anthem that’s as bold and unapologetic as Atlanta itself.
Featuring a lineup of rising Southern stars — J Money, Sean Paul (Young Blood), BunnaB, and Bankroll Ni — the track pulses with energy and attitude. Released via HYBE, it’s the second single from Dupri’s forthcoming studio album, crafted to coincide with his Magic City: An American Fantasy docu-series, premiering August 15 on STARZ.
This isn’t just a song; it’s a cultural moment. “Magic City Money” celebrates the grit, glamour, and grind of Atlanta’s world-famous nightlife — a place that birthed movements, broke records, and became a global trendsetter.
“This is the sound of the city,” says Dupri. “It’s about honoring the hustle, the legacy, and the energy that turned dreams into dollars.”
The single is accompanied by a high-energy visual, dropping today, that captures real-life scenes across Atlanta: block parties, bando vibes, family barbecues, and Falcons game-day culture. It’s not staged — it’s authentic ATL through and through.
As anticipation builds for the Magic City docu-series, this single serves as the sonic spark to a cultural fire Dupri has been building for decades. And with more music on the way and an album launch set for August 15, it’s clear that JD is orchestrating an Atlanta summer takeover.
