Malcom ...to be honest the whole cultural mindset got brainwashed once all these movements entered the city during the early 2000's

not just BMF :whoa: Even though they did play a huge role in this transistion...

especially when you had a guy like Baby Bull from BMF stating publicly

"WTF you doing in the club if you cant afford a BOTTLE to be in your hands??" :why:

so basically you had a bunch of movements and moguls basically becoming the tastemakers for regular working class people which is SAD

because this wasn't a NATIVE ATL phenomenon...

2003 it looked like the city had more transplants and vistors than actual residents especially in the party scene

you had Street Fam...Bogard ent..SYS...Pure Pain..Zoe Pound...9 Treys...Mansfield Crips..Black Roses...

and those were just the infamous ones...not counting all the other balling hard movements who weren't that well known

not to mention all these movements had BIG BOSSES....many of whom were big on the promotion scene..i know cause that was my field of intrest

guys like Kenny Burns from NYC...Chubbie Baby from Dipset...Smurf whom Jeezy brought from southeast ga..and Biggie Rankin from duval were all going to the BLACK MECCA

and it caused the local movements like Ductape and Oomp camp and others to step their game up cause the BAR no pun intended got raised dramatically

and this was before the social media instagram/twitter explosion...

the whole atmosphere changed my guy

for the worst in my opinion :mjcry:

case in point...no lie..i remember listening to live radio broadcasts when i was on my way to the club feeling excited cause i knew the cover charge was low and it was a gang of lovely ladies there who were still into REGULAR DUDES

i remember the deejay getting on the mic and saying in 2001

"shoutout all my people brining home at least 40k a year...yeahhhhhh...keep grinding"

"if you got 100$ in your pocket..MAKE SOME NOISE!!!

i was like :mjgrin: i felt APRECIATED and amongst the IN CROWD...considering i had a decent corporate gig and my side hustle as a promoter

but it was ALL GOOD JUST A WEEK AGO :francis:

2003 CAME IN and i remember that same club ...the same deejay saying over the mic during a live broadcast while im speeding down 85 to make it there

"hey ladies....NBA MONEY IS IN THE HOUSE TONIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!....FELLAS YOU BETTA MIND AND YOUR MONEY RIGHT ..CAUSE THESE LADIES ARE CHOOSING....WE LIVE BABEEE ON HOT 107.9!!!!!!!" :ufdup:

right then and there.....i felt my heart sank cause i know i wasnt on that level especially when my boy whom had just beat me to the club said..

"dawg they charging 40$ to get here...and now they charging for PARKING TOO!!" :sadcam:

I told him ...its a wrap for me..im going back home and probally stop by mrs winners and pick me up a two piece and take my broke azz home... :mjcry:

so MALCOM i know the "pain" you felt that evening....

reminds me of the time i made the mistake of going to the COMPOUND to celebrate a friend of mine just coming back from deployment

talk about blowing money fast :wow:


thank god i am an older and flabby n sick REGULAR n1gga who is far removed from ATL in distance and desires....

they can have that "LIFESTYLE"...it's all SMOKE N MIRRORS ANYWAY BREH :yeshrug:

I remember Jeezy saying that the BMF guys were the first ones to bring out the big body luxury sedans in ATL. Like 6 and 7 series BMWs. He said before that they were considered "doctor's cars" - old, stuffy white dude cards. He may have even said he was the first to 'show out' in a 7 series back then. I dunno shyt about Atlanta but it's hard to believe because I remember seeing big benzes and big acuras up north for as long as I remember

Regardless of that , this video is lame and that environment looks miserable :yeshrug: I've had a lot and I've been down to nothing and no matter what I don't like being made to feel like a mark. That's how these environments are set up, I'd feel like the walls are closing in and the vultures are circling :yeshrug:

:dead: at the Prisoner Transport Van coming through at 13:41

i shed a tear every time i pass by the exit for Cleaveland Avenue where the old PLEASERS strip club use to be at :mjcry:

it aint been the same since they closed down

they had a way of making a regular working class dude feel like a Star :ohlawd:

30$ dollars went a long way in that spot :takedat:

this was before all that MAKE IT RAIN shyt swept ATL by storm in 04

and basically made every strip club in ATL feel like a promotional spot for the Rappers....

yeah this was around this same time...places like Strokers and few others like Club Blaze introduced INDUSTRY NIGHT..where it was more about the RAPPERS intstead of the STRIPPER BYATCHES
:russell::russell::russell:

espeically considering that virutally every strip club deejay was taking payola dollars to have music being played there

just like Pinups out in Decatur i use to enjoy that spot....lawd they had some fiyah Lemon Pepper Wings :lawd:

but once Greg Street punk azz from V103 starting hosting out there on various nights it started getting a lil hollywood for me :smugdraper:

before it was a real cool spot for regular dudes ..the strippers was even down to fukk and smoke with ya after the night was over

but once Greg showed up and all the entertainers took over....

them hoes would treat you like a nobody if you wasn't a falcons athelte or had a big azz chain with you a medallion nameplate of your rap label

the only time i got love when i showed up with my homeboy who was a rep from Universal Records who had a Def Jam jacket on when we stepped in the place

next thing you know its like 10 byatches gathered around us ...and 4 of these byatches is trying to him to check out thier facebook page and listen to thier music...:shaq2:

TRAP MUSIC and THOT HOP has officially put the NAIL IN THE COFFIN of what use to be a pleasant strip club scene
