The VIPP Report: The Breakfast Club’s DJ Envy will host Derby Soundstage 2018 in Louisville

By Sherlene Shanklin

With the Kentucky Derby just 86 days away, organizers are working hard behind the scenes planning some of the biggest events, galas and parties around the greatest two minutes in sports. I announced that Grammy Award winning hip-hop/rap artist Lil Wayne will be in concert along with Grammy-nominated newcomer Cardi B and R&B sensation K. Michelle will be in concert on Thursday, May 3^rd at Broadbent Arena for Derby Soundstage 2018.

I’ve just learned that the host of the event will be a member of the World’s Most Dangerous Morning Show, The Breakfast Club. The Derby City welcomes DJ Envy. He will host and dj the concert. Envy is the co-host of the nationally syndicated four and half hour morning show along with Angela Yee and Charlamagne Tha God. The show also showcases some his top music mixes. When he’s not on the show, he travels to host and dj some of the hottest parties and events. So, it’s make sense to have him be a part of the biggest week-long celebration in Louisville leading up to Derby 144 on the first Saturday in May.

All three artists performing have new material from Lil Wayne with Dedication 6, Cardi B with the remix of Finesse featuring Bruno Mars and K. Michelle with her album “The People I Used to Know”.

So, its Lil Wayne. Cardi B and K. Michelle in concert hosted by DJ Envy on Thursday, May 3rd in Broadbent Area. Tickets are on sale and they start at $70. The show will begin at 7:00 pm.
