Slide at Tabú Ultra Lounge in the MGM Grand continues to keep the old-school alive this Thursday, Feb. 28 with a double dose of hip-hop royalty: Grammy-winning rap pioneer Grandmaster Mele Mel and DMC DJ Hall of Famer Grand Mixer DXT.

The duo will rock the turntables and the microphone during the Thursday night party celebrating the best in past and present of hip-hop culture. Mele Mel — who, along with the rest of the Furious Five, was inducted into the Rock ‘n’ Roll Hall of Fame in 2007 — released his first solo album last year, Muscles. The beefy rapper has also been vying for a spot in the WWE, even attending pro wrestling school (they have those?).

Come out to Tabú on Thursday to check out these influential figures in hip-hop and the usual bevy of B-boys and B-girls. Just watch out for Mele Mel in case he tries a clothesline or elbow drop in the midst of his set.
