Freak City: A Home for L.A.s Electro-Rap Fashion Weirdos


In some neon-streaked dimension where Beat Street meets The Matrix, you'll find the ghetto futurisms of Freak City, a hybrid retail space and electro-rap club situated in the heart of Hollyhood. It sits smack dab on Los Angeles’s famously star-lined boulevard, and if you peer through the display window, you'll see what appears to be an abandoned multi-level department store. That's exactly what the space used to be, before a pair of stylish strangeoids that go by Justin Time and Vally Girl barricaded themselves into the mall's deeper recesses, covered the walls with Day-Glo graffiti, and unbolted the back alley door. Open for business.
