Question? Is Chicago full of......

[she-pisces]

Chicago sucks but I would'nt have it any other way! There's no place quite like the Chi!

[shasha]

Why even make the video?

Life experience teaches us that there are good and bad in everything that we do.

You are correct.

and on my rant about the negative, there are a lot of beautiful, creative and smart people out here that are very supportive in many different ways.

People have choices to be.

Another Youtube superstar in the making?

I think this topic has been touched on before; the scene is SOOOOOOOOOOO SEGREGATED. But recently I have seen people from the South side and North side traveling out of their neighborhoods for the music.

Fathom is known and what she's speaking on does hold volume. You can't deny it.

Sounds like the 80s

A new generation of folks on the scene getting a glimpse into what many folks already know.

it's a shame we have to spell this out to adults

Life is a constant remix.

Some folks are just living life based on a sample.

I never heard of her before today.

YouTube is amazing.

Life experience creates critical thinkers.

We all have something to add.

If you dont have any haters, you slipping. you aint doing your job. there's no sure sign of success like a group of people hating and downing your endeavors. That means you're making some noize

Gary? I thought that place consisted of three families. Every body's sombody's cousin, brother, sister or uncle over there!

You Tube Is A Great Tool.............especialy when one wants to show proof that folk in Chicago are lying about House Music.

Especially them who are already on VIDEO saying one thing - only to see a VIDEO that prove them wrong...............I love that Shit.

[djroc2u]

You are funny and you are taking this topic out of context a bit. How about whether the party is successful or not peeps still talk about it............ talk about what music was played.......... djs going behind the dj booth to tweak and or interrupt the dj's set by twisting a nob.......... totally disrespectful, other djs who I generally support not coming to my parties because they don't like the djs that are spinning at mine, all the while i've supported their trainwrecks for years......... that's support, peeps trying to get in for free, when they know good and damn well they have a whole bundle of bills in their pocket, DJS WHO think they have the baddest record collection, when most of that shit needs to be hanging on the damn wall or in a damn musuem.............. it's so obscure.......... the dancer can't even dance to it. I can go on but I think i've given enough examples. And let's not talk about the DJ ELITIST......................... these jokers won't go to any present day parties, because they remember WHEN....................... AND I AM REFERRING TO THE POWER PLANT, AND ALL THOSE OTHER PARTIES THAT PRECEDED 1984................... just stay your OLD ass home then. Okay now i'm done. That's why I travel. There are some really good parties here in Chicago.............. EX........... the party at the Point; everyone was there: old, young all cultures........etc. That's what I love. I try to steer clear of joints WHERE EVERYONE KNOWS YOUR NAME.

norrrrrrrrrmmmmmmmm

had to say that.

This sounds like an aspect of LIFE. Its just in this case everyone happens to like House Music.....The term "Hater" is misused IMO. You dont like what a person says, then suddenly you are a "Hater"....

Does it really matter? It dosent dictate or alter anything I do, professionally or personally....Ignore Ignorance, I always say.....

[jojaujae3]

Anybody got a few haters they can spare? I need 3 more to get my bonus!

[djboxx]

I dont think Fathom is so much concerned about somebody not like you or what you do or anything personal...It seems as though she's concerned about the lack of fully supported progressive House Music events and venues

I agree.

I don't know J...................... Have you ever sat in on some of these sessions with some of these cats. It gets heated. I've heard some things that have left me shaking my head, I mean from people that I have mad love and respect for. I was like WOW.

People's opinions are based off of their perceptions. When they use terms like "Chicago" followed by a negative opinion , "he/she isn't playing any real music" and so on thats a limited perception and knowledge base on their part. If you/they were a well travelled person (with in the city and outside of it) then you/they would know humans are all alike and these emotions/expressions that are associated as having a "hater" tone behind them exist everywhere.

Most of the issues we see externally can be solved internally within ourselves. Opinions or negative perceptions will never go away. You can control what you project and the type of energy you choose to be around majoirty of time. In those times you can not make the best out of the situation because its just a test.
