Midtown Manhattan turned into another universe the night VTV staged its secret extravaganza. Behind closed doors and under a blanket of mystery, the stars of Hip-Hop and entertainment gathered to embrace their inner alien. It was a scene that felt part futuristic, part theatrical, and entirely unforgettable.
The crowd was a mix of familiar faces, from Hip-Hop influencers to media powerhouses. Tahiry Jose made her presence felt, Ms. Moe Money turned heads, and DJs Camilo and Self kept the conversation buzzing while mingling with industry insiders. Motivational phenom Wallace “Wallo” Peeples added energy to the room with his larger-than-life presence, while I, representing The Source, was there to witness the kind of cultural moment you don’t often see in the middle of Midtown.
The performances pushed the night into legendary territory. Sparky Flintstone delivered a set that no one in attendance will forget. Rolling out in a wheelchair flanked by alien dancers dressed in silver and neon, he owned the stage with a performance so sharply choreographed it felt like a scene from another planet. Every move, every beat, and every detail built toward a climax that left the crowd in awe.
While Shay McCray hosted the red carpet, around the room, influencers Jersey Joe, Travque, Mysonne, Zoey Spencer, Moosie, and comedian Jeff Shelley couldn’t hide their excitement. They weren’t just watching—they were part of the energy, laughing, dancing, and feeding off the vibe. Hard Luck brought Hip-Hop grit to the stage, reminding everyone that even in a galaxy-themed celebration, the roots of the culture were still front and center.
The event carried the stamp of people who know how to create magic. Produced by Lenny Hansen and Lynn Hobson, the night flowed seamlessly from start to finish. Guests toasted with PurFix Cocktails, the evening’s official sponsor, adding a smooth signature touch to the galactic theme. Everything, from the décor by Madison Court to the entertainment, felt intentional, transporting guests far beyond the streets of Manhattan.
Speaking on behalf of VTV, partner Rico Varii summed up the purpose of the night perfectly. “We wanted to give people more than a party. We wanted to create an experience that took them out of the ordinary, into a space where music, art, and imagination collide. That’s what VTV is about—storytelling that lives on and moments that can’t be duplicated.”
By the time the lights dimmed and the last notes of music faded, it was clear this wasn’t just another night out in New York. VTV had delivered a galactic affair—one that blended Hip-Hop, spectacle, and creativity in a way only this city could hold. And those lucky enough to be there will be talking about it long after the stars fade.
