Another Friday, another new video from 4:44. This week, JAY-Z is sharing a visual for the bonus track “Adnis,” an open letter to his late father Adnis “AJ” Reeves who abandoned him when he was 11 years old and passed away in 2003.
The black and white film stars Oscar winner Mahershala Ali as a boxer sparring and Danny Glover as a trainer watching on. “Started a good man, you married my mama,” JAY-Z raps. “I was in her belly, you hurried that summer.”
