Hov is back at it again with another music visual off his 13th studio album!

With every video that Jay-Z releases for 4:44, it’s a mystery what those visuals might entail. For “Moonlight,” he took a comedic twist for this particular visual. The legend released his very own version of the popular 90’s comedy show, “Friends,” with an all black cast.

The casts includes some of Hollywood big time stars like Jerrod Carmichael, Issa Rae, Lil Rel Howery, Lakeith Stanfield, Tessa Thompson and Tiffany Haddish who will play as the originals, Ross, Joey, Chandler, Rachel, Monica, and Phoebe.

The video ends with audio from the infamous Oscars slip up earlier this year, when La La Land was incorrectly announced as Best Picture instead of Moonlight. Mr. Carter actually spoke with iHeart Radio, referring to the song title and hook as “ commentary on the culture and where we’re going.”
