Immediately after taping, the crew headed downtown to Miss Lily’s, site of Major Lazer’s Free the Universe pop-up shop, where Jillionaire joined DJ Gravy for a set on The LargeUp Sessions, running through soca, dancehall (kicking things off with Johnny Osbourne and Barrington Levy dubplates), EDM remixes and more, as a raucous crowd accumulated inside Miss Lily’s Variety.
