Wu-Tang was here. I heard DMX came by. Jay-Z supposedly passed through. Money is money, but, in a lot of those rap groups, one guy is usually bisexual, and they come by here because it's a chance to be themselves. Gay or straight, they have a better time, because, if a guy and a girl don't mind partying with a gay crowd, they can be safe.
People get tired of the fights and the guns and shooting and all that rah-rah.
Shirtless in the DJ booth, his muscular torso tattooed with images of Spiderman, a phonograph, and his pet Akita, Unknown surveys a crowd that is over 1300 strong by 5 a.m. They were playing MC Lyte and whatever. They hadn't taken the music to a more hardcore place. Gay people love hip-hop, too, and we have needed the music brought in an original way. Because you have to take the bitter with the sweet.
