“The pair discuss key influences, formative experiences, and his singular approach to artistic innovation”: Jay-Z and Rick Rubin to team up for new documentary series

Jay-Z and Rick Rubin.

Jay-Z’s music career has taken something of a backseat to his various business interests in recent years – his last solo album 4:44 was released way back in 2017. But he’s dipping back into that world in a new eight-part documentary series that starts in September.
