May 7th, 2015: New York City. Drake and Sotheby’s host a celebration of the “I Like It Like This S|2 x Drake” curation. I had the absolute honor of being asked to DJ this epic and legendary moment in art…

“I Like It Like This, presented by S|2 in collaboration with Drake is a celebration of influential Contemporary black American artists. Grammy winning hip hop icon Drake has provided musical curation by selecting songs to accompany highlighted works in the exhibition. Listen to Drake’s song selections at Beats by Dre™ sound stations throughout the gallery and experience the dialogue surrounding the overlap of these identities and the ways in which they bolster, challenge and inspire one another.” – SOTHEBY’S

The show was quite incredible, featuring works from artists like Kehinde Wiley, Kara Walker, Jean-Michel Basquiat and more! I have to say, Drake did an outstanding job. Not only that, but the attendees were a perfect mix of downtown kids, patrons of the arts and artists.
