Last night was a star-studded, fashionable affair at 1 OAK at The Mirage, as living hip-hop legend Nas gave an unforgettable performance to celebrate the launch of the hot, new sneaker shop 12AM:Run.
The Queensbridge lyricist arrived in Vegas from Houston earlier in the day and stopped by 1 OAK for a sound check. After brief sound check, he dined at STACK Restaurant and Bar and checked out the 200 person private event for the sports apparel company Mitchell & Ness. He and seven members of his entourage indulged in Chef Brian Massie’s greatest hits and cocktails from the restaurant’s new menu. Then it was off to 1 OAK for pics on the red carpet where the stylish emcee was clad in an all black ensemble from head to toe.
He then was immediately escorted inside to a luxurious VIP table where he quietly observed the scene. Before blazing the stage, he and the 12AM:Run crew celebrated the occasion with a toast. He kicked off his performance with a special shout out to the new store as well as boxing champ Floyd “Money” Mayweather and rapper/BET 106 & Park Host Bow Wow who were also in the building. During the set, Nas performed a play list of his greatest hits including “Hate Me Now,” “Made You Look,” and the smash hit “If I Ruled the World.” The at-capacity crowd sang along to his songs, while dancing non-stop during his performance. After Vegas and a fun-filled night, it was back to NYC for Nas and his entourage.
