You sound stupid! First, Go-go is anything but subdued? WTF. Go go is raw as it gets. That's why, your weak a$$ ATL rappers have to get with a go-go band if they want to play in DC. That Bama Lloyd is always in DC with Backyard. If you go to a real go-go, you will come out soaking wet from dancing all night. Second, go-go is never whack. Just ask Luda, Nellly, Jaz-Z, Jill Scott, etc. and the rest of them that have used a go go track to push a hot song, Atlanta's nightlife is jive country to be honest. I can't get with the gold fronts and all that off brand, bama sh*t they do down in the sticks. DC's nightlife is way better.

One thing I noticed about these threads are they're always urban focused. Many other scenes exist outside of the urban market. Another thing is celebrity hosted parties are a good selling point imo.

I think if you guys really want to impress people; expand on your cities musical/ nightlife options outside of the urban crowd. I'm mad somebody used a Jamie Foxx party as a good thing.
