Buck 65, the country's favourite storytelling hip hop troubadour, has been a record-fiending DJ since day one. Anyone who's seen him perform live has seen him rock turntables as a part of his set. He also has a self-described "stupidly huge" record collection. For years he was the host of the Bassment, a hip hop radio show on Halifax's CKDU, under the moniker DJ Critical. But it has been years since he's set aside the anecdotes and the slide guitar and just cold-rocked a dance floor as a DJ.
Hunnicutt and Co-op first approached Buck 65 about coming back to Winnipeg but as a DJ in June during the Jazz Winnipeg Festival. He instantly fell in love with the idea. And now it's official: Winnipeg's favourite disc-jock duo have coerced Buck's DJ persona out of hibernation for a special one-of-a-kind party on New Year's Eve!
And if that wasn't enough, The fellas have also added Winnipeg's smokin' hot salsa combo Papa Mambo to the bill! The Pyramid Cabaret will be the place to be on New Year's Eve!
