Behind the Scenes at DJ Cassidy’s ‘Pass the Mic Live’ Residency With Chuck D., Slick Rick, Fat Joe, Ja Rule, Doug E. Fresh and More
We go behind the scenes with a galaxy of classic MCs at DJ Cassidy's 'Pass the Mic' residency: Chuck D, Raekwon, Slick Rick, Fat Joe and many more.
The New York native is keen on making sure everything is buttoned up, from the way his signature hat sits on his head to his performances everywhere from Jay-Z and Beyonce’s wedding to the stage of the Democratic National Convention during the summer, and especially at his “Pass the Mic!” residency in Las Vegas. The show will feature Bobby Brown, Chaka Khan, Charlie Wilson, SWV, Keyshia Cole, Jaheim, Anthony Hamilton, Hezekiah Walker, Nice & Smooth, Full Force, Black Sheep, the Furious Five, Shannon, Meli’sa Morgan, Fonda Rae and Taanya Gardner, along with trailblazing DJs Marley Marl, Kool DJ Red Alert, and Chuck Chillout. The chemistry and comradery between the performers was just as palpable behind the scenes as it was in front of the crowd: They cheer while watching the monitors and salute their peers with hugs, high fives, and personal rounds of applause as each one left the stage.
