āIām not just outsideāI am the outside.ā
Yo! Itās Lil Waya checkinā in š£ļø
You ever scroll through them āthings to do in ATLā lists and itās just vibes for aunties and grown men who listen to too much jazz? š Respectfully.
Lemme save you the scroll. If you under 25, love fun, and wanna be somewhere where your kicks, curls, and crew get compliments⦠I gotchu.
Hereās my Top 5 ATL Spots thatāll make your weekend feel like a movie:
š® 1. Joystick Gamebar
šEdgewood
Itās giving vintage games + hip-hop + late-night eats. You pull up for Pac-Man, end up in a Tekken tournament with a rapper from Zone 6. The wings slap too. Perfect mix of nostalgia and chaos.
š§ Pro tip: Donāt challenge me in Mortal Kombat unless you ready to lose and get laughed at.
š¹ 2. The Skatepark Under the Bridge
šHistoric Fourth Ward
This aināt on nobodyās travel blogāand thatās why itās fire. Real ATL skaters. Real graffiti. Real energy. Pull up with your board or your speaker and post up. Somebody always filming a reel.
š„ Bring your tripod. Itās giving lowkey content gold.
š¤ 3. Open Mic at Apache XLR
šDoraville (new location)
If you got bars, pull up. If not, just watch. This is where the next big thing be practicing while folks still sleep. Iām talking poetry, rap, comedyāwhatever. The crowd aināt easy tho. Come correct.
š¤ Lil Waya tip: Spit a verse about Atlanta and watch the room go crazy.
š 4. Sweet Auburn Curb Market
šDowntown ATL
This where I go when Iām tryna eat GOOD for the low. Real ATL food. No fake TikTok spots. You can get oxtails, birria tacos, banana pudding, and Jamaican patties all in one walk-through.
š½ļø Itās giving food crawl vibes with your besties. Pull up hungry.
šØ 5. Trap Music Museum Late Nights
šWestside
Yeah yeah, tourists go here. But do they go at night when the DJās spinning, the lights low, and the photo ops HIT? Probably not. Thatās when the real ATL steps out. And the merch lowkey hard.
šø If you donāt leave with a fire pic and a new screensaver, you did it wrong.
š„ Honorable Mentions (cuz Iām extra like that):
-
Sneaker shopping at Wish ATL
-
Edgewood bar hopping (if you grown-ish or got a fake š)
-
Piedmont Park but only when thereās an eventāotherwise itās just dogs and jogging
-
Waffle House on 10th at 3AM. Donāt ask why. Just go.
