An Orlando rapper known for releasing hit after hit under Clientell Music Group, Wes Fif is one of the FIRST names MENTIONED when talking about who’s hot in the O. Now it’s our turn to let Wes Fif give his take on what’s hot in his city. Here’s his top 10 list of places to check out while you’re in town for the Florida Classic. 1. DME’s Riding Big Car Show – I don’t really have to say too much about this. Nigga’s already know what it is when my brother Dawgman does the car show. It’s the perfect grand finale on Sunday for the best weekend in FL, in the best city in FL. Hot whips, good food, beautiful women, real niggas, and a good time. You can’t beat that. 2. Frontline’s Classic Luau – My big brah Pat Nix has a lot of hot events going on all weekend long at Whispers, Roxy, and some other spots. But the Luau on Saturday night is always the lick. It’s for the niggas who wanna stunt and have a good time, and not have to worry about anything. There’s always beautiful, beautiful women everywhere, and the hottest DJs from around the country. What up City, Sytonnia, Christina, and Omar! 3. Wildside – My dawg Shami got the hottest gear in the city, hands down. Anybody wanting to get fresh and get they swag up needs to go holla at him definitely. That’s for dudes and girls. He’s located at 6203-C2 West Sand Lake Road. Spots like Men’s Closet and Mannequin got some hot gear too. But Wildside is what it is.
4. Flyer’s Wings – Anybody who is really from this city rocks with Flyer’s. They have the best wings, period. We’ve called in orders from the studio a hundred times, and you can eat inside as well. So all you out-of-town people who want some good food fast, holla at them. They’re on West Colonial Drive near Kirkman. 5. The Trap/Hood – This right here ain’t for everybody, especially if you scary. But if you wanna see the real Orlando, then you need to slide through the hood. Ivey Lane, Orange Center, Mercy Drive, Crosstown, Pine Hills, Richmond Heights, Tangelo, Crossroads, The Trail, Carver Shores, Texas Ave, I could go on for days. Everything’s for sale – keep your head on the swivel though. (laughs) 6. Magic Mall – On any given day during Classic Weekend the Magic Mall will be swole; it’s always been that way. Cars on deck, girls on deck, goons on deck. Everybody having fun in the parking lot outside. It’s located on W. Colonial Drive right between Tampa Ave. and John Young Parkway. 7. Car Detailing Shop – If for some reason you niggas are slipping and your whip is dirty, tighten up and go holla at my dawg n’em in Washington Shores, or outside the Magic Mall. This ain’t really a “hot spot,” but it’s necessary. Plus it be jumpin’ too. 8. Icon Nightclub – This is the longest running hot spot on Friday/Saturday night. One time for my dawg Paul over there. This spot is crazy both nights and will sell out early. If you wanna get a taste of how we really rock in my city, this is where you need to be, trust me. I’ll be there one of those nights. 20 East Central Blvd., downtown. One time for D Strong, Disco Jr., Greg G, Yogi, my whole Icon family. 9. Hero”s – It’s now called KOHA, but it’s still Hero’s to us. Listen, every night, when all the other clubs close, Hero’s is open till 6 AM. 426 East Kennedy Blvd in Eatonville. What up Wayne and Disco. 10. Orlando! – Fuck it, the whole city is on fire. It’s a lot of spots I couldn’t mention ‘cause JB, Rivercity, n’em only gave me top 10. But trust me, just ride through the city and you’ll find something poppin’. If not, slap me when you see me. 407 on the map!
