When Fool's Gold comes into town, you can guarantee it's going to be a good time.

Los Angeles received its own Day Off party last weekend with the promise of a day of quality soundtracking from headliners Fool's Gold prodigy Madeaux, Oshi, The Cool Kids, Madeintyo, label boss A-Track and friends, Pusha T and Mac Miller to cap it off on the hip-hop front.

With previous stops already made in New York and Florida, Los Angeles marked the final Day Off event of the year, and the send off was, appropriately, a big one.

Atlanta native Madeintyo's performance was capped by a 30 person strong entourage that joined him on stage and kicked the energy up early in the day by stage diving and surfing into the crowd.

Fool's Gold boss A-Trak took his promise of "And Friends" to heart, bringing with him a slew of talented pals like rappers A$AP Rocky and ASAP Nast.

Pusha T delivered a set made up of his solo hits and signature anthems like 'Numbers On The Boards' and 'Untouchable' with an electrifying stage presence that easily reminded his massive crowd why he remains at the top of today's MC game.

Finally, the day's closer Mac Miller gave up a diverse performance which served as a showcase of how far his sound has come since his early breakout years.
