“Have you seen the state of her body? (Mad) If I beat it I ain’t wearing a johnny…” “Wrong crowd!”
The former is a rap by the Eminem-lite ArrDee on Russ Millions and Tion Wayne’s straight lad anthem ‘Body (Remix)’; the latter a gender-queer dresser’s screamed response when the rap makes an inexplicable cameo in an otherwise flawless selection of edgy pop, dance and RnB at Polyglamorous, a joyously inclusive, utterly riotous, monthly club night in Brighton.
One other quick sour note before we get to effusive praise: when going through security at glossy, new-ish venue Chalk, we are less than impressed to have our ID scanned and stored. (When asked how long it will be held for, one door staff member replies: “I don’t know.”)
