BROOKLYN, NY — Roc Nation and Brooklyn Public Library will host a free public screening of episodes 5 and 6 of HBO’s “JAŸ-Z IN 8” on Friday, Oct. 2, at the library’s Central Branch in Brooklyn.

The eight-part documentary series marks three decades of JAŸ-Z’s music and cultural impact, following the 30th anniversary of his debut album, “Reasonable Doubt”.
