Hennessy V.S. Limited Edition JonOne Launch Party

Hennessy knows how to make cognac attractive. I mean just look at these gorgeous vintage Hennessy ads. The brand knows how to pair striking creative with a classic, time-tested spirit. Not that they need help getting the word out. Just a few months ago, there was news that first quarter Hennessy sales were so strong that there could be of a shortage of bottles for the rest of the year. Shortages aside, there is a very special bottle of Hennessy that won’t be around for very long: the Hennessy Very Special Limited Edition by JonOne.

Originally from New York, JonOne is a graffiti artist who moved to Paris in 1987 and quickly established himself as a force in the street art scene. He’s appeared in exhibitions all over the world, including eight solo shows last year alone (six in France, one in Israel and one in the U.S.).

Back in 2012, we had a blast at the party that launched the Hennessy V.S. Limited Edition by Futura, another graffiti artist originally from NYC who has public collections in France. This year’s event marked the seventh collaboration between Hennessy and world-renowned artists.

The launch party was held a couple weeks ago at Monk Space in LA. The event featured tunes by DJ Politik, celebs like Jamie Chung and Morris Chestnut and a live-painting session from JonOne. Primary color-inspired cocktails were served (cinnamon-y red, tonic-y blue, lemon-y yellow). These bright, glow-in-the-dark libations fit in well with JonOne’s lively bottle design and overall color-party aesthetic.

The Hennessy V.S. Limited Edition by JonOne bottles are on sale now. You can pick them up on ReserveBar.com or other fine liquor retailers who appreciate classic spirits in sexy packages.

Kendrick Lamar Steals Show at the Shepard Fairey Hennessy VS Limited Edition Launch Party

Shepard Fairey is a recognizable brand. From Andre the Giant Has a Posse stickers to OBEY to the Obama Hope poster, Fairey has carved out a familiar, easily identifiable aesthetic of pop-heavy propaganda couched in geometrically stenciled street art. Fairey’s most recent collaboration was on display in Hollywood last night at the launch party for his newly designed Hennessy V.S. Limited Edition bottle.

The evening started with DJs D-Nice, Z-Trip and DJ Diabetic (aka Mr. Fairey himself) stirring up a crowd that was well-lubricated on free flowing Hennessy cocktails. Guests got to view the new bottle, sample the goods and share the dance floor with celebs like Chris Brown, Karrueche Tran, Ne-Yo, Travis Barker and Tam Walker.

Although Fairey was the man of the hour, the main attraction was this guy named Kendrick Lamar. And when I say main attraction, I really do mean attraction. Given the size of the venue, it’s amazing how many girls were actively looking to get impregnated by the man who earned seven Grammy nominations this past year.

Lamar was the ultimate crowd pleaser, showering the place with his fluid flow and familiar hooks from hits like “Swimming Pools (Drank)”, “Bitch, Don’t Kill My Vibe”, and “Poetic Justice.” Everyone in attendance soaked it all in with a smile. From the view of the stage, everyone shared the same expression. Like the entire place was about to eat ice cream. Especially that girl in the pink dress.

Whatever “it” is, Kendrick has it for days. D-Nice, Z-Trip and Shepard Fairey set the stage, but Kendrick Lamar stole the show.
