We did it massive for DRE DAY ‘10. The Jordan Years interpolated a handful of classic Dr. Dre tracks, and were joined onstage by a host of local Chicago Hip-Hop talents including Psalm One, Adad, ANG13, Vitamin D, Wondur, Ill Legit, Phillip Morris, & Shadow Master MC with Wes Restless at the helm playing the role of Nate Dogg. DJ Intel was kind enough to record the fellas set, made a bandcamp about it… here it goes. Enjoy!
Dre Day 2010 went off something fierce! Easily the most fun we’ve had at a Hip-Hop show in awhile. Local photographer about town Sean Costin of camerainmyhand.com documented the evening and manned the portable ‘Chronic’-themed photobooth.
