IN THE LAB WITH NABS AND VYBZ COLLECTIVE PRESENTS: OLD SKOOL SUNDAYS AT SPACEMAN

Welcome to Atlanta's newest monthly rooftop experience celebrating the music, culture, and architects who built one of the greatest hip-hop cities in the world.
Every third Sunday, the rooftop at Spaceman at Hyatt Centric Buckhead Atlanta transforms into an elevated journey of classic hip-hop, R&B, soul, and timeless party anthems curated by legendary DJ NABS and a rotating lineup of iconic DJs, pioneers of Atlanta's music scene, industry pioneers, and special surprise guests.
This isn't a typical "old school party."
This is NABS & The Architects—a one-of-a-kind gathering where the DJs who created the soundtrack, the tastemakers who shaped the culture, and the people who lived it all come together under one roof.

July 4, 2026 — As the nation marks its 250th anniversary, one of Atlanta hip-hop's foundational figures is being recognized not only for the records he broke on the turntables, but for the service he gave in uniform. Youtha Fowler, known worldwide as DJ NABS, is a U.S. Army National Guard veteran whose four-plus years of service ran parallel to a career that helped shape the sound of the Dirty South.

Long before he became the touring DJ for teen phenomenon Kris Kross and shared bills that opened for Michael Jackson's “Dangerous World Tour,” Fowler was a Boy Scout in Durham, North Carolina, coming up alongside his cousin Joseph Milford, Jr. He earned the rank of Eagle Scout at 16 — an early lesson in the discipline and precision that would define both his craft and his service.
