Sidenote: I'm a youngin (just turned 20) and grew up kinda coddled so I ain't never really peeped it. I was leaving the Gunna concert on Miami Beach at like 1AM coming down 79th Street past the bridge in the Uber. Looking around the scenery, I realized one thing: When did 79th become a haven for trannies? It was mad 5'11 nikkas in wigs & makeup with ass shots

Palm Beach County is underrated with the arts.@Meh Yeah I was at Arts Africa in 2018 and I went to my boy Keon spot at the urban in Overtown. Broward is so fragmented in the art scene compared to WPB and Dade. We have the talent but we're so fragmented. I'm working on changing that though
