In July, DJ Cassidy debuted his quarantine morale-boosting livestream series Pass The Mic, an online and remote jam session starring Earth, Wind & Fire, Kool & The Gang, and many more. A month later, Cassidy debuted the show's second volume, and its theme is classic hip-hop. Run-DMC, Chuck D of Public Enemy, Rakim, Salt N' Pepa, and over thirty other hip-hop stars joined in for a forty-minute party viewed by over 122,000 people during its Wednesday night debut on Twitch.

“I hope Volume Two moves others as much as it has moved me,” Cassidy said in a press statement. “I am forever grateful to my hip-hop heroes for their decades of music, culture, and inspiration, and with them, I celebrate all the heroes around the world.”
