I hate LA, but unless you are Cuban/South American, LA's nightlife is vastly superior to Miami for most Americans. Miami's nightlife would be great if you are a rich guy from Brazil.
Miami has the club scene but that scene never appealed to me, even as a youngster. And being open till 5am once again is not appealing to me. Live music, jazz, an endless amount of great restaurants, a nice pub and an occassional party, oh and salsa dancing sometimes. I actually love the LA nightlife scene. The last time I was in Miami I was surprised there was so much of that god awful house/electronic music. Had fun at a couple of cool latin clubs though which reminded me of being in Rio.
Miami is actually pretty good in the jazz department, imo, with several Afro-Cuban and Brasilian ensembles. Quite melodic. You'd probably have to say that Miami is the place for Latin jazz in the US. And salsa is obviously Miami's strong suit.

More good stuff. I always remembered hearing radio DJ's say "welcome to the Soca zone" or some stuff like that. I never knew Soca was the bastard child of Calypso. I never really put 2 and 2 together. A Bajan like you would know this stuff.
Miami no contest! It's more condensed, so it's easier to get to different clubs! And it's world-famous for its nightlife. It's like the Caribbean's own Las Vegas! LA has good nightlife too, but you waste your time driving from place to place, it closes "early", and it's not even well-known for its nightlife.
