Justin Credible DJs J. Cole’s “KOD Tour” After Party [PEEP]

It was a LIT weekend in Vegas with my brother Justin Credible, who DJed the GOAT, J. Cole’s “KOD Tour” after party at Jewel Nightclub.

Cole, who was coming off his emotional tour stop in Vegas following the sudden death of his friend Mac Miller kept his composure and delivered an excellent performance in front of a sold out club. He ran through many of his classics like “Work Out,” “Power Trip,” and “Can’t Get Enough.” He also performed newer material off ‘KOD’.

Shoutout to Cole, who took the time to chop it up with Justin and myself after the party was over. Cole is a humble, down to earth guy, who loves and is inspired by 2-Pac as much as I am. In case you didn’t catch it Friday was Pac’s death anniversary, as he was gunned down in Vegas on September 7th 1996 and to commemorate him, he wore an “All Eyez On Me” shirt.

Justin shut the club down prior to Cole hitting the stage and set the table by playing a mixture of the hottest hip-hop and reggaeton. The crowd went crazy bringing their energy, while Creddy made sure he matched their’s.

Thanks to Ib, the Dreamville team, the homie Jefe, and the entire Jewel Nightclub staff.
