"We wanted to do this show to give back to the local New York hip-hop scene and enjoy each other's fans," says Mula. "It was important to us that we let Manhattan, and the city in general, know that it's ok to host hip-hop events like this and they don't have to end in violence. We put on for our city."

Officially titled "Jay Mula & Friends," the show brought out 700+ attendees coming together to celebrate and support up-and-coming New York hip-hop artists in the underground and independent scene. Attendees included battle rapper Mysonne, Matt Bond founder of Treble, platinum artist Mr. Cheeks , and more. DJs included DJ Solution, DJ Manny Millz and DJ Fat Fingaz. Mula performed tracks from his debut album Rockaway Ave. including "Gang" and "Phone Line." Rockway Ave is available now on all digital retailers.
