On Tuesday
August 20, celebrated hot spot Hakkasan Las Vegas at MGM Grand Hotel &
Casino was home to the official Hudson and Creative Recreation after-party
during the fashion tradeshow in Las Vegas, MAGIC. For the first time in
Hakkasan history, the main room of the nightlife mecca was transformed into an
open-format destination, welcoming a never-before-seen performance by GRAMMY
Award-nominated artist Nas. Throughout the night, renowned SKAM Artists
including DJs Crooked, D-Nice, Fashen, Homicide, Five and Irie took turns
manning the decks pumping up the crowd while spinning their hard-hitting tracks
for over 5,000 partygoers.
Nas
arrived at 10:30 pm with his entourage at Hakkasan Restaurant to dine on its
world-class authentic Cantonese cuisine, sampling a variety of signature dishes
including Roasted Silver Cod with
Champagne and Chinese Honey and Crispy Duck Salad. Following his dinner, he
entered Hakkasan Nightclub at 12:30 am and was seated in an exclusive VIP table
on the stage next to the DJ booth. At 2 am, the rap phenomenon took over the
stage and immediately jumped on top of the DJ booth to perform his
chart-topping hits including "If I Ruled The World," "Made You
Look" and "You Can Hate Me Now." Nas ended his energetic
show-stopping performance with an impromptu freestyle inspired by the energy of
the night leaving fans wanting more.
Guests
were dazzled during his performance as lights flashed, confetti flew in the air
and cryo cannons went off, while DJ Irie MC'd. The evening was a historic one
for Hakkasan, as it was the first live performance by an artist in the club's
main room, normally home to electronic music legends including Hakkasan
resident DJs Tiesto and Calvin Harris. After Nas completed his stellar show he
returned to his table and was presented with a celebratory cake by the Hakkasan
staff, rounding out a night of festive revelry.
