St. Patrick’s Day weekend was in full swing here at Drai’s featuring the best live acts in Las Vegas nightlife and beyond – brothers Rae Sremmurd kicked it off for us Friday night, Saturday afternoon was the opening of Drai’s Beachclub’s 2019 season with DJ Pauly D, French Montana took over Saturday evening back at Drai’s Nightclub, and West Coast legend Snoop Dogg made his long-awaited return for Sunday! Special guests included NBA player Dillon Brooks, NFL player Ron Parker, artist Flavor Flav, and many more.

“Las Vegas, y’all ready to turn up with SremmLife?!” Rae Sremmurd got things started with “No Type” and “No Flex Zone” in full force, getting the jam-packed crowd hype from start to finish. “Shout out to everyone celebrating a birthday! If you from out of town say ‘hell yeah’! I wanna take a shot with Las Vegas! We gotta dedicate this song for all the beautiful ladies in here!” The dynamic and always energetic duo then put on an “Unforgettable” performance to screams everywhere, dancing around on stage and interacting with fans on the dancefloor. “Swang,” “Sunflower,” “Black Beatles” – you name it, they performed it, and then closing it out with SR3MM standout “Powerglide” to smoke and confetti all across the rooftop venue!

The next day was the opening of Drai’s Beachclub, with our very own DJ Pauly D proudly kicking off our exciting 2019 season. Fans from all over came out to Las Vegas’s only rooftop party, dancing, drinking and making a splash on this beautiful sunny day, all while taking in breathtaking views of the Las Vegas Strip! “Yessir, if you ready to party with DJ Pauly D make some noise! Hands up!” Pauly played some of the best remixes from hip-hop, EDM, Latin and everything in between, with a focus on today’s biggest hits. “Yeah buddy! Who wants a Pauly D sticker?!” The crowd cheered on as Pauly got in front of the stage to hand out some exclusive stickers, happily greeting fans in the process (selfies, handshakes and all!).

Saturday night we had French Montana once again drawing out a sold out show as partygoers came out for a nightlife experience like no other. “Vegas!

We had bottles after bottles coming in at all of our VIP tables, some making it rain throughout his whole set as he performed hits like “Ain’t Worried About Nothin’,” “Lockjaw,” “No Shopping” and more – “I see a lot of fly motherf***** in here! Can I take a shot with y’all Vegas?!” French took a moment to take a shot with everyone, keeping the celebrations and good vibes going strong, closing it out with “Pop That” and “No Stylist”! The party was far from over though as French and his close friends/colleagues enjoyed themselves at our backstage VIP to celebrate another successful evening!

And what better way to start the weekend off with our very own DJ Pauly D taking the stage?

Saturday night was the highly-anticipated return of the one and only TIP – it was a memorable evening filled with bottle presentations, tables making it rain, and fans from all over eager to see the King of the South perform again on the world-famous Drai’s LIVE stage. “If you love trap music make some noise! If you from out of town make some noise!” He began the show with “Top Back” into “Rubberband Man” to screams across the sold-out venue – “How many of y’all been riding with the King since day 1?!” The Drai’s resident performed a number of classic hits from his endless arsenal, from 2004’s “U Don’t Know Me,” “Why You Wanna” to 2014’s “No Mediocre,” getting fans amped up and singing along all night. TIP closed it out with “Live Your Life,” “What You Know” and “ATM.” But it didn’t end there… we had a surprise appearance from Yo Gotti right after, performing “F***  You” to keep the party going and warming up for his performance the next day.

Yo Gotti once again put on a show to remember for Sunday to perfectly close out the weekend. DJ Franzen warmed the jam-packed crowd up playing the best in hip-hop and R&B, as well as handing out some complimentary shots for those on the dancefloor! Gotti came out with a statement starting with his bold single “F*** You” into “Yayo” and “I Got Dat Sack” – “I go by the name Yo Gotti and I represent the three letters: CMG. Let me take em back home to Memphis!” He then performed fan-favorite “Slob on My Knob,” “Doin 2 Much” and more, happily reaching out to the crowd and shaking hands. “Las Vegas, y’all enjoying yourselves or what?! Yo Blak (his DJ), I notice a lot of birthday girls in here!” Gotti then took a moment to shout out as many birthday girls as possible before ending his explosive set with “Rake It Up,” “Juice” and “1942” to confetti and smoke everywhere – another weekend for the books here at Drai’s Nightclub!
