Set to debut on July 5th at Bakkt Theater at Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino, this unprecedented residency will feature a star-studded lineup of Hip Hop icons, creating a once-in-a-lifetime experience for audiences.
The “Pass The Mic Live!” Las Vegas residency will be a musical extravaganza unlike anything The Strip has seen before. DJ Cassidy, along with Ja Rule, Fat Joe, Slick Rick, and Doug E. Fresh, will take center stage, uniting as “The Rap Pack” to deliver an unforgettable showcase of talent and collaboration. Drawing inspiration from the legendary Rat Pack of Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Sammy Davis Jr, Peter Lawford, and Joey Bishop, DJ Cassidy aims to recreate the magic of old-school Vegas entertainment with a modern Hip Hop twist.
Joining DJ Cassidy and his esteemed collaborators on select dates throughout the residency will be a roster of iconic special guests, each bringing their own unique flair to the stage.
