It just wouldn\u2019t have been complete if we didn\u2019t honor iconic hip-hop brand, <a href=\"http:\/\/crosscoloursla.com\/\">Cross Colours<\/a>. The tri-color pieces were reminiscent of the early 1990&#8217;s. Special guest performer, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thurzeveryday.com\/\">Thurz<\/a> hit the stage during the tribute, performing <em>\u2018Favorite Girl\u2019<\/em> and <em>\u2018Iconic.\u2019<\/em> <\/p>\n<p><strong>T.J.
