i been away to long, my feeling died.
It won't mean a thing. There are hop hop parties in Brooklyn already without the violence and dressing like a long lost 90's head , it's done by a mix of hipsters and regular people who just want to listen to the music without going in a time machine and talking about the "good old days". The music is mainstream now and you going to get a greater mix of people . If white people go , big deal. I love the 90's but man it's gone already, it's not coming back. Like you said best thing that could happen is that venue made money and was peaceful so it can happen again, that will be a positive to look at. But for NYC to really come back the artist have to produce better music and the locals and DJ's have to support it. There is a hiphop party on Sunday at Goldbar that is excellent and VIP room just had Ross perform there. There are other places doing parties without going back to the old days . Bottom line only thing bring NYC back is better music.I see what you're saying. But if you look on all those instagram pictures that shyt looked live. If the club pulls in plenty of money for boom bap hip-hop monthly, that might trigger something where a ton of clubs across the country try to emulate it. I can see Los Angeles/Hollywood trying something similar, we're as depressed about the quality of music here outside of Kendrick for awhile now. If this does that happen, record labels are gonna follow the money trail and may just lead to changes on the radio and overall fashion trends. Looking at the pictures, cats were posted up with jerseys, doo rags, and beanies up in there.
I can't comment on how it used to go down at the actual club itself, but the effect it may have in terms of music being played and people going there to listen to that music is the big picture. If NY does get brought back, that's a major market.
