Rap mogul Jay Z, who made Ace of Spades champagne the beverage of choice in the hood, held a tasting party for D’USSE Cognac at Vanquish Nightclub in Atlanta Thursday night. I guess Ace of Spades fell out of favor with the hip hop set?

The event was presented by The Gidewon Group and Jacob York, and the celebrities lined up to have a taste, including hip hop star, T.I. and his wife Tiny,Usher, Jeezy, Toya Wright, Bryan Michael-Cox, Nicole Ari-Parker, music producer and DJ Don Cannon; music exec Kawan Prather, Jacksonville JaguarsC.J. Mosley, Lifestyle Specialist Kenny Burns, and more.

performed an exclusive remix to Drake’s hit single “Started From the Bottom”.
