Akbar’s 50th was straight-up legendary! 🔥 He threw it all the way back with a ‘90s House Party that brought the heat—Tone Loc, Rob Base, C&C Music Factory, Montell Jordan, and Young MC had the crowd feelin’ nostalgic. 🎤

And just when you thought it couldn’t get any bigger… FLO RIDA hit the stage for a private concert that shut. it. down. GCE was proud to crank up the good vibes and bring the “Good Feeling” to this milestone bash.🍾
