I remember during the indie Fat Beats heyday the jiggy/backpacker split was pretty clearly defined
At most jiggy clubs the crowd was heavily black and latino, with plenty of women and some token YT girls here and there. YT dudes were sometimes DJin or behind the scenes industry cats
At the backpacker jams, the reverse was the case a vanilla sausage fest with like 3 chicks and 2 black and latino dudes
I went to both kinds of parties, cuz I was into Nore and Co Flow they were both equally dope to me in their own style I got into many debates defending both but of course the vast majority into one scene didn't fuck with the other type
It was mutual disdain
"Fuck all that off the wall God body space shit that don't even make no sense" "That ain't Hip Hop! fuck Puffy! It's all about the 4 elements! keep it real!"
