t’s been four years since Brillz unleashed the trap twist-up album Twonk, a collection of tracks that launched something of a subculture. “It’s like a tree that was planted then and the branches keep growing,” the DJ says. “That album really did start everything. I’ve played sh*tloads of festivals, done some international touring, now we’re launching a record label.” Now he’s working on doing it again. Brillz has taken most of the year off from grinding out gig after gig in order to work on his label and his music. A 16-track compilation from various artists is coming April 28,
he’ll put out his own three-song EP in May and a full Brillz album will follow. “It’s that same thing, taking all those hip-hop influences and dance-music influences and weaving them together to make my sound,” he says. “There are definitely more vocals and singing and lyrics than the original album, but my sound design and mixing skills have evolved a lot. I think it’s a little more musical, more melodic, but the energy is still there. It’s still party music.” Partying will be on the agenda this weekend, when Brillz returns to his Wynn Nightlife residency at Encore Beach Club. The residency marks not only a more consistent Vegas presence
for Brillz, it also reflects the changing sounds of Vegas clubs. “Before, dance music and hip-hop kind of lived in their own areas. Now they’ve fused together,” he says. “It’s cool how those two worlds are creeping toward each other a little bit, and Wynn is definitely the most progressive place. They’ve given me the freedom to my thing without compromising my vibe at all, and it’s pretty awesome and surprising as well.” Brillz at Encore Beach Club, April 21. –Brock Radke

alvin Broadus has long been a cultural phenomenon beyond the Long Beach rapper we met back in ’92. Snoop Dogg is a social commentator and a hip-hop activist. He’s also the current co-star of a hilarious cooking show with Martha Stewart. But Snoop Dogg is still a lyricist, too, and still making music after 25 years. Snoop will likely stick to his many hits when he headlines the Mount Kushmore Wellness Retreat Tour stop at the Mandalay Bay Beach Friday, but on May 19, he’ll unleash Neva Left, his 15th solo studio album. Judging from first single “Promise You This,” he’s got plenty of venom left for any haters—who could hate Snoop Dogg?—and lots of lyrical ammunition ready to fire. “What I wanted to do was to make a record to engulf every phase of Snoop Dogg that you’ve heard over the last 25 years,” he said during a recent listening party in
s o m e D o gg
New York City. “From hearing me on ‘Deep Cover,’ to hearing me on The Chronic, to the reggae album to a funk album—all the different evolutions, but taking a snippet of each one and enhancing this new record with that same spirit, still keeping it new and fresh. ... I just felt like I wanted to put out some music to represent the generation of hip-hop that I come from, just to let people know that I’m still here and I still do what I do.” Mount Kushmore Wellness Retreat Tour with Snoop Dogg, Cypress Hill, Flatbush Zombies & more at Mandalay Bay Beach, April 21.

he word “legendary” probably gets tossed around a little too liberally in our current age of mass hyperbole, but no one could question the uniquely legendary status of Elton John. This week, on April 22, the iconic performer will be granted the title of first-ever Worldwide Record Store Day Legend, an honor running concurrently with the 10th anniversary of Record Store Day and the special vinyl release of John’s first live album, 1971’s 17.11.70, as a two-LP set featuring six previously unreleased tracks. “The album was not meant to be a live
one at all,” he said in a recent video interview. “We did one of the first-ever stereo radio broadcasts live at A&R Recording Studios in New York City in 1970 ... We just went in the booth and played it as a three-piece: Nigel Olsson on drums and vocals, Dee Murray on bass and vocals, and myself. There was a studio audience of about 100 sitting outside the booth, hearing it coming through the loud speakers, and we just played. I’m astonished by how good we were, listening to this record.” John originally released the album on May 10, 1971—before he truly became the superstar he has been for

legend status
decades—and it entered the Billboard album charts on May 29, peaking at No 11. He was the first artist since The Beatles to have four albums in Billboard’s Top 100 simultaneously. Las Vegas visitors will have ample opportunities to revisit the musical legend, with John’s Million Dollar Piano residency show returning to Caesars Palace this month. Elton John at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace, April 25-May 5.

he music world is still reeling from the one-two punch Kendrick Lamar just landed—capping the first weekend of Coachella Sunday night with a powerful, theatrical performance after unleashing his fourth album Damn. on Good Friday. Put them together and they cement Lamar’s status as the most compelling hip-hop artist of his era. Compared to the robust funk of 2015
smash To Pimp a Butterfly, Damn. is stark and pointed, raw and emotive. Its songs sometimes sound simple, but each track is densely packed with feeling and philosophy; it’s all in his words. Lamar bounces confidently along with a Mike Will Made It beat on “DNA” and trades hazy verses with Rihanna on “Loyalty.” His wordplay on “Element” and “Humble” is especially elevated, even for him. And he fearlessly dives into religion and politics before concluding with an
almost unbelievable personal story on “Duckworth.” Somehow Damn. feels forceful yet free, possibly Lamar’s most comfortable work yet—even if it’s not supposed to make you comfortable. –Brock Radke

f you’re doing Coachella’s second weekend and you’re in need of festival fashion tips, consider Wilson Gabrielle. If you’re heading to Cabo or Telluride or St. Barth’s, you should definitely check out Wilson Gabrielle. And if you’re just bouncing around LA and could benefit from a must-see café (Alfred Tea Room) or a must-eat restaurant (Jon & Vinny’s), everything you need is at Wilson Gabrielle. The fashion and lifestyle blog launched by sisters and Station Casinos scions Kelley and Victoria Fertitta is bright, fresh and full of energy, not unlike the sisters themselves. After conceptualizing the project while on a family trip to London, they unleashed the blog— using their middle and nicknames to create a snappy brand label—in late September and have been showing the world a different kind of Vegas style ever since.
V e g a s
“The end goal of that conversation [in London] was to create a fashion line, but we realized that through a blog we can really build a brand and build a name up so when we do want to start a line, we will have credit behind us,” says Kelley, who worships at the altar of Gucci, Hermes, YSL and Louis Vuitton. It’s fitting that Wilson Gabrielle was born from a trip as the sisters’ lifestyle is all about travel and exploration. They both live and work in Las Vegas—for the family biz— but they’re always on the go. “Being in Las Vegas doesn’t always produce the best content, so having the ability and luxury to travel really gives us a boost in the blogging world,” says Victoria, whose favorite brands include Frame, Zimmerman, Chanel and Chloé. They find fashion and beauty inspiration on their travels, and

their blog offers up dual perspectives thanks to their differing personal styles and points of view. “We work well together but we dress completely opposite,” Victoria says. The brand is growing quickly. The sisters are teaming up with Red Rock Resort for the first WG Style Society event on May 20, a symposium that will draw fashion bloggers and social media influencers to Las Vegas. “I love that we get to represent Las Vegas,” Kelley says. “We have style, and so does the rest of this city. This is a cool place to be and we want people to know that whether they live here or don’t.” WilsonGabrielle.com. –Brock Radke

t’s been four years since Caesars Palace unveiled the very first Nobu Hotel, along with the largest Nobu restaurant in the world—a sprawling yet inviting 11,000-square-foot-plus space with a sushi bar (of course), a serene private dining space, a bustling central bar and the only Nobu teppan tables in the United States. If it feels like it couldn’t possibly have been that long, that’s probably because the Nobu experience never gets old, especially when the master himself is around. That will be the case when the chef holds court for “Beauty of Sushi,” a Vegas Uncork’d event scheduled for April 29.
Of course, the beauty of sushi is on full display at Nobu every day. Signature cold dishes like yellowtail sashimi with jalapeño and bigeye tuna tataki are must-order openers, but make space to experiment with Nobu’s ceviches, tiraditos and “new-style” sashimi of scallop, beef or oyster. There are even more tough, tasty decisions in store, between classics like black cod miso or innovations like sea urchin tempura and brick ovenroasted hamachi kama. If you really want to break the mold and immerse yourself in the Nobu Caesars experience, grab one of the sought-after teppanyaki seats and
splurge on one of the most memorable meals in the city. The premium menu includes toro tartare, Maine lobster, teppan-style foie gras and Japanese A5 Wagyu, and the dreamy foie miso cappuccino. These dishes need to be sampled to be believed. Nobu at Caesars Palace, 702-785-6628; Sunday-Thursday 5-11 p.m., Friday & Saturday 5 p.m.-midnight. –Brock Radke

elebrated bartender Billy Ray knows what it takes to make a memorable cocktail. The founder of consulting firm 13 Stitches, who also helped launch heralded LA speakeasy Blind Barber, noticed the need for a better mixer, and Mixwell was born. “I love drinking whiskey gingers, hardballs and gin and tonics,” Ray says. But when 80 percent of your drink is a mixer, the ingredient needs to be perfect. “I really wanted to get into this market to have a better option—from a bartender to a bartender. That was really important to me.” Mixwell’s range of premium sodas includes three key flavors: young ginger ale, dandelion tonic water and Mojave grapefruit soda. Crafted in LA, each can comes with a resealable lid. The can is the first of its kind, though it could easily become essential for cocktail enthusiasts. Now available in Las Vegas at Lee’s Discount Liquor, Wynn Las Vegas, Cosmopolitan and Total

r i s e
Wine & More, Mixwell is expanding quickly, bringing its sodas to the masses. And one percent of all sales go to help bartenders who struggle with addiction, Ray says. “It’s really prevalent in our industry, and I want bartenders to know that they’re not alone.” Ray knows bartending is a tough yet rewarding gig. Mixwell celebrates that profession. “I feel like we have so much to say, and who we are gets really lost in [the] ‘your job is to make my drink’ kind of thing. Whether you’re working at a flair bar, Herbs and Rye or at Vesper, you never really get to hear the amazing stories of these people. No one ever asks, why do you bartend? Why do you love it? [At Mixwell], we want to celebrate them.” –Leslie Ventura

F
or Moscow Copper Co. president and “chief muleman” JJ Resnick, the Moscow Mule is much more than a refreshing, classic cocktail. In 1941, a Russian immigrant and daughter of a coppersmith named Sophie Berezinski traveled to America to sell copper mugs. No one seemed interested, so Sophie pedaled the dishware door to door in Hollywood, where she met Jack Morgan, owner of the Cock ’n’ Bull pub, and Smirnoff Vodka owner John Martin. Together, Resnick says, they created the Moscow Mule, concocted in Sophie’s artisan copper mug.
Seventy-five years later, the story of Resnick’s great-grandmother continues to bring Moscow Copper Co. to life. “I had grown up listening to [my parents] talk about Sophie and the Moscow mule, but nobody had any intention of getting into the business,” Resnick says. Then he realized most mules were served in copper-plated imposters. “I saw those mugs and realized they were nothing like the original mug that I had,” he says, having inherited the mug in which the very first mule was made. Resnick hired a scientist to determine why copper is essential to the Moscow Mule—you can learn about it in Mulehead, a recipe book for Mule lovers—and
an app is currently in development, so you can soon search for bars serving the cocktail in official MCC mugs. And Resnick says the Muleseum—in a space at the top of Palms Place—will be ready by summer, complete with the original mug on display and Moscow Mules on draft. For Resnick, it’s about sharing his family story with fellow Mule lovers. “I want to show the world that this is the mug this was made to be consumed in.” –Leslie Ventura
