He’s considered one of the most influential American rappers of all time with a long list of top singles including the likes of “I’m Sprung,” from his 2005 top hit debut. He’s not only produced a number of chart-topping singles and albums, including Epiphany and Thr33 Rings, but he’s collaborated and made guest appearances on a number of Billboard Hot 100 charts.

From Fabolous and Akon to Kayne and DJ Khaled – even a parody collaboration with Taylor Swift – T-Pain and hi Nappy Boy Entertainment record label have produced more hits than imaginable.

Swinging into the near end of July means a slight reprieve from the heat with temperatures looming in the low 100s, but it also means that there’s still plenty of party – both at the pool and the nightclub – to go around.

If you’re headed to Vegas this weekend, check out a partial list of this weekend’s lineup. For those that are not already heading to Vegas, still take a look at the lineup below and ask yourself why you’ve not booked that quick weekend away.

DJ Mustard hit the music scene with a very particular sound – something he has – himself – dubbed as ratchet music and the West Coast hip hop style with a flair of electronic dance music (EDM). After debuting in Vegas at the Life Is Beautiful Festival in Fall 2014, which was the same year he released his album Ketchup, DJ Mustard began to be a household name among the Sin City clubs.

What happens when two of the baddest Hip Hop artists in America head to one of Sin City’s hottest nightclubs? Well, naturally, an amazing time happens  -- like one of those can’t-remember-what-happened-last-night-but-I-know-I-had-fun times.

This is exactly what Vegas is gearing up for on Sunday, June 25 at Drai’s Nightclub as Method Man and Redman head to this incredibly sexy rooftop venue to bring the party to epic new heights.

It’s official, Las Vegas has a new Wayne in the house embarking on an era of all-out crazy parties that last until dawn (and beyond, because it’s Vegas after all). We’re talking about the one and only Lil Wayne aka Weezy.

"My first night at Drai's was magical. I'm happy we created a partnership for me to come tear down the stage at the best club in Vegas!!," said Lil Wayne according to a statement sent to Billboard magazine. "Wayne Newton put his stamp on Sin City, now its time for the next Wayne to do the same!"

When it comes to finding things to do in Las Vegas, there’s literally never a dull moment and this weekend is no exception as chart-topping Nelly headlines Drai’s Nightclub on Friday, May 19 as the guest performer.

If by some strange reason you haven't heard... this weekend UFC 196 is taking place in Las Vegas. The "face of the fight game" Conor McGregor is making his welterweight debut on Saturday night against American Nate Diaz who came in on two weeks notice to replace Rafael Dos Anjos who suffered a broken foot during his camp. To add to that the USA Sevens rugby tournament as well as the NASCAR Sprint Cub Series Kobalt 400 will be taking place.

Despite a few breezy days here and there, we're officially declaring it Spring in Las Vegas. So slide those sunroofs back and be sure to bring a bathing suit if you're visiting! To celebrate we thought we'd share a playlist with some of our favorite new tracks: 

1. 30 Hours - Kanye West

This weekend is a hot one! Spring has officially come early despite what some groundhogs may have thought (we're looking at you Buckeye Chuck of Marion, Ohio). Sin City is preparing for a great spring and summer season, and this weekend is just a sample of what is to come. We're super excitied for Post Malone at Light on Saturday!

The all-star Vegas lineups are slowly but surely coming back with a vengeance! We've got some hip-hop legends, a pop-punk drummer DJ set, and electric EDM duos. We're thankful for this t-shirt/no-sweater weather and the pools have taken initiative and will open up for the pre-season at the beginning of March. If you can't join us this weekend, definitely start planning for your sunny getaway now with Galavantier!
