This is a hot spot...love the ambiance, mostly men of color! Love dancing to that raw hip hop and house. Not everybody understands House Music.

To the point of a past reviewer: I don't think that the Prop House is prejudice to white guys. But let's be frank, most black guys just aren't attracted to white guys.

This is different from prejudice, which would mean that is a "hate" driven atmosphere; this is hardly the case. Hence, it would be harder for a white guy to get mutual attention from a pre-dominantly black and latino club. Same goes if a black or latino goes into a predominantly white club - a level of uncomfortablity is definite do to the lack of "likeness". There is a thin line betweeen prejudice and unattraction. But as a faithful visitor, my point is that the Prop House is far from prejudice... To another point of a past reviewer: YES. It is ridiculous how much the Prop House charges for "Event Nites". As a person who visits regularly for free (VIP) and on occasion $10, I couldn't fathom paying that much as a cover to a place full of the same faces I just saw last week! It would be a different story if there's a celebrity guest, or strippers even! But I supposed that they are charging for the sheer "ambiance" of the event in honor. It does get kinda "hot" durning those nights (and I don't just mean hot like heat/warmth)LOL... I say test the Prop for yourself. Besides all its many flaws it still flattens the competition out here on Friday nites for the "queers"... It's hot.

If you are a white boy, you won't be welcome. Very prejudice clientele. The staff is nice, however.

As always, the Prop House is full to capacity, especially during Pride week or when something "gay oriented" is happening in the city.

The White Party was a joke! Yes, it was packed and very uncomfortable being inside of the building. It drives me crazy when I go to "Black Pride" events and the cover for the club is hiked up an extra 20.00, it's ridiculous! How can you enjoy yourself during Pride weekend if everywhere is a 30.00 cover charge? Why is that only the black peeps do that shyt? Never during Chicago's Pride, which is predominantly white do you find a club that's 30.00 or 15.00 for that matter upon entry. I am over the "Black Pride" bullshit, and yes I am black. I enjoy myself with other races than my own...a damn shame!
