A few more:

--I been to some clubs out here in Manhattan and Queens, and they ALL had the same playlist
One spot played Hot Nikka like 5 times in a 2 hour span... In Love with Coco, IDFWU, and that Troy Ave All about the Money are the "hottest" tracks right now.
Not complaining but, is there any spots that play a more diverse hip-hop mix? Like go into 80's, 90's, 00's a lil bit? Hot Nikka is played the fukk out :skip:

-- Seem like everytime I ride the train late at night, somebody get sick on that jawn. Nikkas throwing up, passing out, shyt is a mess :gag:

If u really want to get a feel for that old NY.... ride the A train end to end.

Bonus points if u ride all the way out to Far Rockaway....... and make it back unscathed :demonic:

you have to do it past midnight. i used to stay in the heights and wprked in BK 2nd shift..saw it all damn near.

and while nyc is not what it used to be, it was, is, and always will be The Best.

Breh we off that club shyt in NY to be honest. The lines, the unreasonable admission (for many place), and these fukkboy security guards are all reasons to be off that shyt. These days alot of people hit up a lounge that has music. Now, it wont be turnt up like a club but you will get a diverse crowd and actually be able to holler at females. If I do hit up a club, its based on who is spinning and not the venue. It's not like these are the days when the Tunnel/Carbon/Exit was popping and you KNEW it was worth going to these places.

So rather than club, I hit a lounge, bar/sports bar, beer garden or a live music spot.

That's the truth. A lot of native NY black and hispanic chicks are EXTREMELY ratchet

Nobody would like to cuff them. Best not to get with an extroverted chick at all.

I been to some hookah lounges over on Steinway, but they were overpriced and the music was typical. The crowd was hipster/ white college chicks going wild. I need to venture out, I guess to some more hood spots to get a good music vibe.

breh don't even fukk with these hookah lounges even if the joints in Astoria look authentic. You don't even need to go to the hood for authentic shyt because you'll be disappointed and all of the hood spots are on that club shyt.

TBH your best bet is to find spots that you discover on your own. Obviously theres gonna be shyt poppin off in Manhattan but Brooklyn has its spots too and Uptown/Harlem is a serious contender these days.

Are you strictly looking for clubs or you're down for whatever? Because it cant be all clubs all the time. that shyt will burn you out

AND this is another reason why cats need to fukk with this NY Coli meetup next week because I get the feeling ALOT of cats in the area are down to chill at similar spots that other brehs already know about

Honestly, Im not even a club/ turnup type dude. Im definitely down with a more relaxed environment. But at the same time, Im not into sitting around sipping wine, listening to Billie Holiday.
Just seems clubs are more of where I end up. I just want some good music. Could even be live. I dont fukk with that merengue/reggateon Pitbull Romeo Santos stuff either.

My disappointment lies in the fact that I've yet to find a place where I heard a good DJ set, especially since Im in NYC, hiphop capital, feel me?
All the places play the same shyt Hot Nikka/ Tuesday/ Love with the Coco/ No Type/ Lifestyle, etc...

Imma try and make it to the Dec 19th meetup too.

My advice is to hit the spots up that have DJs you fukk with. I like hip hop/r&b and all that but I fukks with house music too and house is one of those genres where there are legendary DJs that get insane amounts of respect and people turn out to their gigs + its a great vibe. Its a strategy that works for me and I know I'm not gonna walk into a spot and feel like I wanna immediately walk the fukk out.

If you can, get on some good lists for events parties. shyt, one party thats good to start with is the Freedom Party they do every friday. Look it up and sign up for their email blasts - http://freedomdanceparty.com

shyt, I might even fukk with it this friday because Big Daddy Kane will be hosting and I haven't partied in a looooooooooooooooooong ass time

Most of them "arabs" are guyanese and/or trini and would smack hot fiya out ya ass if you approached them sideways

but don't take my word for it :skip:

I see cats on here like to take pot shots at VicVonDoom. I laugh because I know for damn sure none of those jokes would fly out here.



Dude Guyanese and Trinis are not Arabs by no means the fukk is your punk ass talking about?
That shyt tripped me out :mindblown:

I never even met a Guyanese person till I came here. Nikka had to look on a map. And the arabs is from there too, I aint even know South America had a arab populous.

Indians and Arabs is two different things.Trinis and Guyanese are usually of Indian descent.
