Naked Hip-Hop Ambition
Aspiring rap stars flock to strip clubs in Atlanta -- `the Motown of the South' -- to build a buzz and catch the ear of industry star-makers.
ATLANTA — It was "Magic Monday" at the Magic City strip club, a windowless brick building near the downtown Greyhound station.
Inside, 57 exotic dancers with names like Isis and Peaches and NaNa were shaking it, as the song goes, like a saltshaker. The soundtrack was Southern hip-hop — all simple synthesizer lines, raunchy party chants and the gut-rattling bass kick of a Roland TR-808 drum machine.
Tax Holloway pressed close to the stage, sipping champagne and watching the women twist themselves into exaggerated affectations of lust. But Holloway wasn't really here for that.
The aspiring rap star knew that on Monday nights, Magic City was packed with Atlanta's hip-hop cognoscenti, and he wanted to see how they responded when his new song played over the sound system.
Curiosos? E com 8 "singles" de hip-hop à borla !
