|Compound| & ***Lotus Lounge***  



If you're on the prowl for a wild night. Compound is urban jungle that aims to please. It's a standard spot for many because of the it's urban hip crowd and banging beats. Located off Brady Street it's where you want to be on a Friday night. The DJ's don't disappoint blending beats like bartenders. Compound is full of beautiful people, sipping, jigging and being sexy. Don't come half stepping either because the dress code is strictly enforced. Forget the baggy jeans and tees. The ladies come looking fabulous and the fellas come fly and fresh. Compound is a hot spot filled to the top with movers and shakers around Atlanta. It's beyond grown and sexy with everything you could want in a club: dope music, smooth drinks, and sexy people. Compound is like a Hype Williams music video it's crisp, fresh, and every body is talking about it.


Not into the club crowd? Just looking to chill? Lotus Lounge offers a relaxed atmosphere in conjunction with a look of luxury and location know for it's palatial pulchritude. Lotus Lounge is diverse it's like a UN meeting if you add some mood lighting and take away the discussion of international relations. The building flows like a series of lucid rhymes. The music is as diverse as the crowd, with everything for Old School like Run DMC to Reggae to Britney Spears. You don't have to come stunting, the attire is still grown and sexy but it's not a fashion show. This no pressure environment allows for maximum opportunity to to relax and enjoy some friends. Lotus Lounge great for really getting to know somebody and vibing with some cool people.

Pure [is essential]  


Saturday I accompanied two of my favorite folks to Pure. Doyle is friends with a promoter and he put us on the list. Nestled in a small grove of Euro restaurants off of Clairmont road, Pure, like all clubs doesn't look like much on the outside. BUT once we stepped in the atmosphere almost made us stumble (without having a single shot). Draped in red tapestries and a mix of silver and black furnishings we were spellbound by a barrage of smoke and mirrors that hit us like a big yellow school bus. It was full of sexy singles ready to mingle. the crowd was mixed mostly salt and some pepper. The thumping techno grooves saturated the entire club setting a sexy tone, but the dance floor was empty for a solid hour. Two buxom blondes emerged from the back corridors (scantily clad of course). The go-go'ed their way to the dance floor and performed their provocative (and slightly off beat routines)...shortly there after the floor slowly sprinkled with a few tipsy takers and after about an hour or so the floor was full. The DJ was on acid, he mixed oil and water all night, and for the most part it worked. I give my evening two thumbs up. thanks for the shot Hels.

the movement.
