- Synopsis:
In November 2003, hip-hop legend Jay-Z threw what would become a legendary retirement party at the most important music venue in the nation: a sold-out Madison Square Garden. Joining him for this monumental musical celebration were some of the most popular artists in the industry including Beyonce, Mary J. Blige, Missy Elliott and R. Kelly along with hip-hop icons P. Diddy, Kanye West, Damon Dash and more. Narrated by Jay-Z himself, 'Fade to Black' captures the stunning imagery of the onstage performances that night, the entire hip-hop family in candid backstage moments and also chronicles the soul-searching dramatic process of creating his best-selling 'The Black Album'. This film looking back on the meteoric rise of his career is now a video that no true hip-hop fan should be without. - Actors:
