I LOVE HATERS: Uniting Chicago's Hip-Hop Scene

If you've ever been to an indie hip-hop show in Chicago, and the spot was full of hard-legged dudes nodding their heads, OR if you've ever been to a Flosstradamus show with a grip of teenyboppers parading around in bright clothing and gaudy jewelry, I LOVE HATERS is the party that finds the middle ground between backpacker & hipster, embracing wholeheartedly Chicago's abundant and varied hip-hop scene.

Chicago hip-hop has been likened to 'crabs in a bucket,' where you can only gain ground by treading on the next man. I LOVE HATERS aims to dead that analogy, building instead of destroying. If you like to dance, we got you. If you like to stand on the wall and headnod, we got you.
