AMERICAN GANGSTER, JAY-Z’s new album, to be released on ROC-A-FELLA RECORDS on November 5, brings together a collection of new original tracks, distinct from the film’s soundtrack. On this occasion, JAY-Z takes us on a new musical journey by offering an interpretation of certain passages from AMERICAN GANGSTER, a film starring Oscar winners DENZEL WASHINGTON and RUSSEL CROWE, which will be released in French cinemas on November 14. Inspired by a true story, this film, produced by Oscar winner BRIAN GRAZER, and also directed and produced by RIDLEY SCOTT, tells the story of FRANK LUCAS, a drug lord in 1970s Harlem.
