Comedian Keegan-Michael Key will also be in the episode. Above is a behind-the-scenes clip of him recording his part as "washed-up rapper" Jazzy James. The character claims he wrote "all the rhymes for Jay G's first record" but now sells high-end candles.
"The Great Phatsby" will also feature a character voiced by Taraji P. Henson plus original music from the team behind Empire. Check out the clip above.
