DC was similar where folks "made it" and didn't want to come back to the hood for anything. Now that it's being gentrified folks complain how "they" just take things over and make it too expensive and push our folks out. <br /><br />It's too bad that like minded entreprenuers and patrons didn't put more support into this area and build it up. You can class a place up the same way "they" do and have and will continue to do. Like you said, it requires support, belief and losing the fear.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3369150548164180573.post-17997655420708155062009-05-05T09:02:00.000-07:002009-05-05T09:02:00.000-07:00What a great and wonderful spirit Sugarhill holds....What a great and wonderful spirit Sugarhill holds...I only had the pleasure of experiencing an evening there just once in 07...<br />For a Harmony In Life event with Erro, Ndambi, PJMorton, Carmen Rogers, Carol Riddick and my gurl Yahzarah...and forgive me if someone else was up there and I forgot...the experience was close to heaven...all of those great artists in one nite onstage back to back...Wow!<br />I look forward to the rise of Sugarhill and will surely hop a plane down to support...
