DJ Cassidy is hitting the road, heading to Atlanta with his popular Pass the Mic concert series.

In its third installment, the one-night-only event unites prominent hip-hop and R&B artists for a celebration of their contributions to Black music, and their top music hits of past and present.

“I am simply honored to be sharing a stage with these icons to bring the party people of Atlanta a groundbreaking musical experience,” DJ Cassidy said of the upcoming show.

With performances by AshantiFabolousJa RuleLil Kim and other notable hip-hop names, the inaugural Pass the Mic Live! took place at the Prudential Center in Newark back in May.
