The event, held in celebration of the latest collection of smart glasses, offered concertgoers the chance to test out the new collection via immersive mirror and graffiti instillations and Meta AI.

Hands Free Brooklyn,” inspired by Busta Rhymes 1997 track “Put Your Hands Where My Eyes Can See,” also featured performances from Coi Leray and Busta Rhymes’ son, Trillian, and music from DJ Saige. The event was held collaboration with independent creative company, Translation, and coincided with the release of a social campaign featuring Offset and U.K. rapper/singer Little Simz.

Offset teased the Ray-Ban collaboration on Instagram last week posting a clip from the campaign with the cryptic caption, “Got something on the way for y’all.” He followed-up with a video of the new campaign. “I got to get loose before every show, no matter what. This time I got a little help from @raybanmeta 🙌🏾😎#raybanmeta.”
