Fantasy Ave at Avenue 29 is the new upscale Caribbean style spot in North Miami Beach/Aventura area. Miami has been missing a nice upscale weekly spot where people can come out in their best, but are able to still have a good time. Celebrating my birthday month I decided to finish the Gemini extravaganza at Fantasy Ave (Avenue 9) for the Gemini Edition. I arrived around 12:53am and for a spot that goes to 5a.m. they had a good amount of people; I mean what you would expect; everyone was free before 1am. Now the vibe walking in automatically was stush (stuck up, high maintenance). Everyone too me was still trying to catch a vibe and feel out the spot, since it’s been a while reggae has happened there.
Crown Prince was playing by this time and I don’t know if it was them or the crowd, but I could not catch a vibe. I know of them from Orlando and they play good, but the goodness was not working for them that night. Now the vibe kicked off when Prodigy touched the Laptop (haha). I don’t know what it is, but you can never go wrong with Shadow fire on the mic and Killa Mike spinning the tunes. They had the crowd bubbling right down to Esco’s aka Dr. Evil’s performance, which was great. I never new how much songs the man had til they zipped right threw them one after another. I loved the fact that he new it was a club and didn’t pull up, re-play or tell a story; he sang his songs and moved the hell on. No long movie stage show performance, it was nice and short. Special K of Black Chiney did his thing….he looked nervous, but he pulled throw and kept the vibes going. Shadow hopped back on to help him out as he spinned the tunes. Slim got up on the Mic early with Killa Mike; I though he would bring slackness, but he was on good behavior. He said a few words, but did not get into 100% slim mode. Barrie Hype of Black Shadow Sound is the man when it comes to Soca no matter where he is. They play the right stuff to keep the vibes going; it never fails when it comes to his segment. Supa Sound was a no show, which was bad, because with the amount of women that was there a good girl tune segment was needed. Their LITERALLY was 5 girls to every man that night. I know if Supa Sound was there they would have gave it their best with the girl tunes.
The party was great and so packed they had to open each section to make space. This party was supposed to go on til 5am, but of course you have fools who do not know how to act and a fight nearly broke out. Too many females can be a bad thing sometimes, because it was a group of hot ass chicks dancing up on everyone who may have ended up dancing with the wrong person. They tried to wrap it up quick, but unfortunately after like 15 more minutes, Barrie Hype was saying goodnight. Despite the fact that girl tunes where limited, the night was real good.
Fantasy Ave has to keep it up from this point on, because after the Gemini Edition people are going to expect even better vibes. If they keep it up (despite the uncontrollable drama that can happen) Fantasy Ave will be a successful Friday night Party. View Photos
