Another incredibly stacked weekend lineup has come and gone here at Drai’s in Las Vegas, once again becoming the hottest destination on the Strip. R&B star Ty Dolla $ign started it off Friday evening, and then it was a special co-headlining set from Zeds Dead and TroyBoi for Drai’s Beachclub on Saturday, the one and only Migos shut it down later that night, and last but not least it was the return of Yo Gotti Sunday night to close it off for us! A number of special guests came out to party over the weekend: NBA players Willie Cauley-Stein, Elfrid Payton, Victor Oladipo, Penny Hardaway and Kenyon Martin; NFL player DeMarcus Ware; artists dvsn and BlocBoy JB; actors Shaunice O’Neal and Chris Evans; and many more!
Friday night saw the grand return of Ty Dolla $ign, bringing dedicated fans and partygoers alike for a chance to see him live in concert at the world-famous Drai’s LIVE stage. “Drai’s, what’s going on?!” as Ty starts it off with “Saved” into “Wavy” to rousing applause! Backed by his live band, Ty Dolla $ign put on quite a show for all of us, singing hit singles “Love You Better,” “You and Your Friends,” “Don’t Tell Em” and more — “Is everybody having a good time tonight?! Where my ladies at one time? All my homies say ‘whoa’!” A surprise appearance from OVO’s dvsn went on stage as well to perform a few of their hits! Ty made sure to take some time to shake hands with those on the dance floor, as well as snapping a few selfies with some very lucky fans. “I know y’all ain’t ready to go home now, y’all ready to turn up?!” His show didn’t slow down one bit, bringing out “Ex,” “Paranoid” and closing it out with an electrifying guitar solo at the end of “Blasé”!
Drai’s Beachclub the next day was a special co-headlining set from Zeds Dead and TroyBoi! Zeds Dead was up first on this sunny Saturday afternoon, as the dayclub crowd made a splash and raged to some of the best in EDM and dance music. “Let’s see those hands up Vegas, here we go!” The Canadian duo played their standouts “Lights Go Down,” “Collapse” and more, as well as remixes to “Goosebumps,” “God’s Plan,” “Walalangleng” and “Blame” to really get partygoers moving. It was then time for London’s own TroyBoi, as always backed by some talented b-boys on stage to perfectly complement his unique house and dance sounds. He got everyone dancing to his singles “KinjaBang” and “Afterhours,” while also putting a house spin to rap hits “Work,” “Taste,” “Booty (Remix)” and more! “Thank you so much everybody, you’ve been amazing!” TroyBoi will be coming back to Drai’s Beachclub for another co-headlining set alongside Destructo this Friday, August 3! Zeds Dead will be back as well on Saturday, August 18!
Sold out Saturdays continued later that night to no one’s surprise, with Drai’s Nightclub being the place to be seen in Vegas for Migos! Big energy was in the air from start to finish, with their official DJ Durel getting fans warmed up for their full-length performance. Quavo, Offset and Takeoff made their way on stage to screams across the venue, starting it off with “Supastars” and “Deadz”! “If you from out of town put your hands in the air, yessir! Shout out to the West Coast in the building! If you living your best life put your hands up!” We had everyone’s hands in the air for “Fight Night,” “Ice Tray” and more, as they sang along to Culture favorites “T-Shirt,” “Slippery,” and of course “Bad and Boujee.” Quavo took a moment to hand the mic over to a group of girls on the dance floor during Cardi B’s verse on “MotorSport,” and needless to say it was perfect! We then took a moment to do a special plaque presentation for the trio, celebrating their many accolades for 2018. “If you having a good time, lemme get a ‘whoop, whoop, whoop…'” They closed this evening out with “Stir Fry,” keeping the party going well into the night. The Migos will be back again at Drai’s Nightclub this Friday, August 3! Click here for tickets.
There really was no better place to be Sunday night than here for #SunDraisWithDJFranzen, featuring a performance from Yo Gotti! Gotti’s hypeman DJ Blak was on the decks with our very own DJ Franzen, amping the jam-packed Sunday crowd up for the main event. “Las Vegas make some noise, West Coast where y’all at?!” Gotti began his epic set with “Got Dem Racks,” “Women Lie, Men Lie” and “5 Star,” as he reached his hand out to the crowd showing love from beginning to end! He took time to get to know some of his loyal fans on the dance floor, asking where they’re from. “Where my day 1 Yo Gotti fans at? I’m from Memphis, can I take y’all back for a minute?” He then performed CMG standouts “Bricks,” “Doin 2 Much” and Three 6 Mafia classic “Slob on My Knob.” Gotti then brought out a surprise guest to join him on stage: fellow Memphis rapper BlocBoy JB! JB was full of energy and performed “Shoot,” “Rover” and “Look Alive,” and he most definitely did the “Shoot” dance to everyone’s amusement! Yo Gotti then performed “Law,” “Oh Yeah” and his biggest single “Down in the DM”! He closed the show off with “Rake It Up,” “Juice” and “1942” — “Las Vegas I go by the name of Yo Gotti, I appreciate y’all for being here, thank you!” as he took time after his show to shake as many hands as he could on stage — what a way to end the weekend!
