Speaker 1: getting little on the song. It did not sound a

00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:42,239
Speaker 1: country song by any means. It's twenty seven damn songs

00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:08,600
Speaker 2: who wrangle cows, and it was derogatory. You know, the

159
00:08:08,640 --> 00:08:11,680
Speaker 2: white men were called cow hands. Black men were called

160
00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:14,160
Speaker 2: cowboys because it was meant to degrade them.

161
00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:18,679
Speaker 1: So and Cowboy Carters is actually was a group people

162
00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:25,040
Speaker 1: who sun cowboy music country music. Excuse me sun country

163
00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:29,120
Speaker 1: music or to me, written out of history. You would

164
00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:32,200
Speaker 1: have never known about the Cowboy Carters if it wasn't

165
00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:35,280
Speaker 1: for Beyonce. I did like that she included some of

166
00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:39,440
Speaker 1: the current country artists, like that girl who has that

167
00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:42,280
Speaker 1: song Buckle Bunny.

168
00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:45,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, she's dope, She's dope. Yeah. So they're on a

169
00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:48,480
Speaker 3: couple of songs too. I think it's not black people

170
00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:54,920
Speaker 3: coming black country music this year. Yeah, we're coming ship,

171

00:08:56,720 --> 00:08:57,440
Speaker 3: bet you they will.

173
00:08:57,440 --> 00:08:59,719
Speaker 2: And Kay Michelle she said she got a bouquet of

174
00:08:59,720 --> 00:09:05,320
Speaker 2: flowers from Beyonce. Uh, you know, celebrating her, you know,

175
00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:08,600
Speaker 2: experiencing the country realm. So Beyonce is so humble and dope.

176
00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:10,880
Speaker 2: I love her so much because she got every right

177
00:09:10,920 --> 00:09:12,400
Speaker 2: to be a nasty bitch if she wanted to.

178
00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:15,840
Speaker 3: I think she is. She just appears not to be.

179
00:09:16,400 --> 00:09:21,360
Speaker 3: But let's go on to the next stuff. What else

180
00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:23,559
Speaker 3: do you got going on the stupid internet news shot?

181
00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:29,199
Speaker 3: Aside from Diddy's stupid ass. Meghan Fox collapsed back at critics.

182
00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:29,600
Speaker 5: So uh.

183
00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:32,839
Speaker 2: There was an interview with Megan Fox and they were

184
00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:37,160
Speaker 2: talking about her drinking her soulmate's blood, a few drops

185
00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:40,520
Speaker 2: of Machine Gun Kelly's blood, and she compared it to

186
00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:45,080
Speaker 2: being blood sisters as a kid and like cutting yourself

187
00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:47,800
Speaker 2: and like smashing your hands together. When I was a

188
00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:51,400
Speaker 2: little kid, we did spit sisters and we in our

189
00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:53,000
Speaker 2: hands and smack them together.

190
00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:55,880
Speaker 6: And like we're best friends, let's go blaying the mud.

191
00:09:56,280 --> 00:09:58,679
Speaker 2: But I'm a country girl and I grew up on

192
00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:02,280
Speaker 2: like a dirt road where we cought bugs and worms

193
00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:03,880
Speaker 2: and made mud pies and shit like that.

194
00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:06,360
Speaker 3: So his sisters was normal. That is that a thing?

195
00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:10,720
Speaker 1: And I've actually done the blood shit like not drinking

196
00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:13,200
Speaker 1: someone's blood, right, but like you poke your finger, your

197
00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:14,719
Speaker 1: homegirl poke their finger and you.

198
00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:16,000
Speaker 6: Touch them to gout and rub it together.

199
00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:18,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's splitting DNA.

200
00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:24,080
Speaker 1: Now, I don't know, you know, I don't see why

201
00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:26,280
Speaker 1: taking them people of vampires anyway.

202
00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:28,440
Speaker 2: I don't understand why you would need to do that

203
00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:30,920
Speaker 2: with Machine Gun Kelly though. I mean, okay, soul mates,

204
00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:36,040
Speaker 2: but drinking their blood is giving very much vampire in Brooklyn,

205
00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:37,360
Speaker 2: and I just don't have time for it.

206
00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:40,760
Speaker 3: So now he's your sire, that's what I'm hearing. Yeah,

207
00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:41,960
Speaker 3: now he owns you.

208
00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:44,520
Speaker 1: Now he like you know, like on the movies when

209
00:10:44,559 --> 00:10:47,480
Speaker 1: the vampire bites somebody, then they give them their blood

210
00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:50,520
Speaker 1: right to turn them, to make them like now I

211
00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:51,640
Speaker 1: own you, right?

212
00:10:51,679 --> 00:10:52,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, I ain't with that shit.

213
00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:56,120
Speaker 2: And now I've heard of this in the South where

214
00:10:56,240 --> 00:11:00,720
Speaker 2: you tall take your your minstrel and put it in

215
00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:02,800
Speaker 2: spaghetti and feed it to your man and he'll never

216
00:11:02,880 --> 00:11:03,720
Speaker 2: leave you alone.

217
00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:06,520
Speaker 3: That's why people be talking about women from Charleston. It's

218
00:11:06,520 --> 00:11:09,240
Speaker 3: a lie. I've never done no shit like that. I

219
00:11:09,280 --> 00:11:11,800
Speaker 3: would never do that. First of all, how you getting

220
00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:14,160
Speaker 3: the blood? How'd you getting it? You got holding the

221
00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:16,240
Speaker 3: cup under your koochie and waiting for something to drop,

222
00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:18,400
Speaker 3: bringing out your tampon in there.

223
00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:22,600
Speaker 2: Oh, that is fucking disgusting. I don't I don't love

224
00:11:22,679 --> 00:11:29,920
Speaker 2: nobody that much to be in there squeezing tampa juice, Yo, nigga,

225
00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:31,840
Speaker 2: Just go if you want to go, just go.

226
00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:36,200
Speaker 1: It's pretty disgusting though, But I don't know, But I'm

227
00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:39,559
Speaker 1: done something. What about spit people spitting each other's mouths.

228
00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:42,199
Speaker 1: What is the difference? It's all DNA. Well what about

229
00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:45,000
Speaker 1: why is that so weird? What about uh?

230
00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:49,400
Speaker 2: The ritual of communion that is representation of the blood

231
00:11:49,440 --> 00:11:51,080
Speaker 2: of Jesus and drinking the blood.

232
00:11:51,640 --> 00:11:52,640
Speaker 3: Girl, we ain't get.

233
00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:54,720
Speaker 1: These Christians around it while well sorry because I know

234
00:11:54,760 --> 00:11:56,760
Speaker 1: you are as well, but I don't want to get

235
00:11:56,760 --> 00:11:57,720
Speaker 1: people all riled up.

236
00:11:57,720 --> 00:11:59,240
Speaker 3: But that is my goal too.

237
00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:04,520
Speaker 1: When somebody started talking about witchcraft and vodoo and voodoo because.

238
00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:05,760
Speaker 3: They don't realize that they are.

239
00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:10,720
Speaker 1: The difference between like somebody an actual practitioner is that

240
00:12:10,800 --> 00:12:12,920
Speaker 1: we are consciously aware of what we're doing.

241
00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:20,160
Speaker 3: You're being used by this thing. It's crazy word. You

242
00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:21,120
Speaker 3: are being.

243
00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:23,640
Speaker 1: Used to participate in this thing and you don't know

244
00:12:23,679 --> 00:12:26,479
Speaker 1: what you're participating in because it is a form of witchcraft.

245
00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:39,480
Speaker 1: If you are practicing commune and you're eating a fleshmtual.

246
00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:35,199
Speaker 5: To me.

247
00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:45,120
Speaker 1: Jesus Christ, meanwhile, let me eat his skin like y'all tripping?

248
00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:48,280
Speaker 3: Y'all are really I don't do that type of ship

249
00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:52,200
Speaker 3: the fun anyway, do you kid?

250
00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:58,000
Speaker 2: Somebody said she got nappy hair and.

251
00:12:55,880 --> 00:13:00,240
Speaker 1: The girl, first of all, here's my thing. So I

252
00:13:00,400 --> 00:13:03,200
Speaker 1: have been not dragged because the bitch could never write.

253
00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:04,480
Speaker 3: But it's men mainly.

254
00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:07,640
Speaker 1: So you know that guy that has that comedic store

255
00:13:07,679 --> 00:13:09,679
Speaker 1: in Columbia, I forgot his name, is an old man,

256
00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:12,000
Speaker 1: but he has like a pretty large following on Instagram,

257
00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:15,880
Speaker 1: so he posts like a lot of esoteric shit, and

258
00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:21,040
Speaker 1: so he's selling hair oil in his store, right, so

259
00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:23,560
Speaker 1: of course he's bashing the weaves. So he was posting

260
00:13:23,559 --> 00:13:26,120
Speaker 1: like a series of videos of how they cutting the

261
00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:29,520
Speaker 1: Indian women's hair off and shit like that over in India.

262
00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:34,199
Speaker 1: And I commented, and I said, those women are sacrificing

263
00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:37,120
Speaker 1: their hairs, their hair to the gods. And I put

264
00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:39,840
Speaker 1: the black one emoji with the crown on because there

265
00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:42,000
Speaker 1: is sacrifice in their hair. And who the fuck do

266
00:13:42,080 --> 00:13:44,960
Speaker 1: you see walking around with and on girl of men

267
00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:48,559
Speaker 1: was an uproar, calling me an elitist, said I got

268
00:13:48,559 --> 00:13:52,079
Speaker 1: a god complex and everything else, So be it.

269
00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:53,400
Speaker 3: But it's just the truth.

270
00:13:53,400 --> 00:13:55,880
Speaker 1: When you say things sometimes in the simple ast way,

271
00:13:56,280 --> 00:13:58,600
Speaker 1: people be fucking mad as hell. So while y'all trying

272
00:13:58,640 --> 00:14:01,839
Speaker 1: to bash us about wearing and hair, weave hair goes

273
00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:05,760
Speaker 1: Doja Cat wearing her natural hair right, and y'all still

274
00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:08,160
Speaker 1: talking shit about that, So which one do y'all want.

275
00:14:08,720 --> 00:14:12,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, you can't satisfy. I'm done trying to satisfy other

276
00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:14,280
Speaker 2: people with especially my esthetic.

277
00:14:15,440 --> 00:14:19,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, and then the nerve of you niggas who have

278
00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:22,720
Speaker 1: been talking about weaves since whatever. Meanwhile, half the damn

279
00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:24,960
Speaker 1: men on the internet got a beard and a lace

280
00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:27,680
Speaker 1: front now, so y'all been talking shit about how we

281
00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:30,200
Speaker 1: look and our aesthetic for the longest. Meanwhile, y'all want

282
00:14:30,240 --> 00:14:32,200
Speaker 1: it to look like y'all mama the whole time. But

283
00:14:32,280 --> 00:14:33,480
Speaker 1: we ain't gonna talk about that.

284
00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:35,240
Speaker 3: But just don't listen.

285
00:14:35,320 --> 00:14:37,160
Speaker 2: I don't knock it because some of these niggas look

286
00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:38,800
Speaker 2: ten times better with their lace wig on.

287
00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:41,840
Speaker 3: They do their hair better. They do do the hair better.

288
00:14:41,960 --> 00:14:43,560
Speaker 2: But let me tell you what you need to stop

289
00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:47,800
Speaker 2: is that black paint. Though I don't like that, I

290
00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:48,600
Speaker 2: don't like that.

291
00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:51,720
Speaker 3: You dating a nigga with a lace front, low weave.

292
00:14:52,400 --> 00:14:52,880
Speaker 3: I'll put it.

293
00:14:53,200 --> 00:14:56,080
Speaker 2: I'll put that shit on my nigga, right. I don't

294
00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:57,760
Speaker 2: got a problem with it. Long as it look good,

295
00:14:57,800 --> 00:15:00,800
Speaker 2: it looks natural, and you look handsome and feel comfortable.

296
00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:03,320
Speaker 2: I will glue them. I will glue that bundle hair

297
00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:03,800
Speaker 2: on your.

298
00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:06,320
Speaker 3: Head, that cool hair. It's so weird.

299
00:15:06,360 --> 00:15:06,480
Speaker 6: Though.

300
00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:09,680
Speaker 1: Okay, so we know that women wear weave. I think

301
00:15:09,680 --> 00:15:11,280
Speaker 1: the men that wear the weave it's just a little

302
00:15:11,280 --> 00:15:12,080
Speaker 1: bit more discreet.

303
00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:12,280
Speaker 5: Right.

304
00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:14,800
Speaker 1: So when you see the nigga without his weave, I

305
00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:17,800
Speaker 1: know a nigga he finally stopped wearing his weave. It

306
00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:20,320
Speaker 1: probably got too expensive and he just went back to

307
00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:22,320
Speaker 1: his ball head, which he looks really nice with.

308
00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:25,520
Speaker 3: Just go to Turkey. Turkey, you can go get your

309
00:15:25,560 --> 00:15:28,320
Speaker 3: hair installed in Turkey. It'd be about.

310
00:15:28,040 --> 00:15:29,560
Speaker 1: Twenty K, but you can get it. I got a

311
00:15:29,560 --> 00:15:32,120
Speaker 1: homeboy who did that too. He got his whole hairline back.

312
00:15:32,200 --> 00:15:35,120
Speaker 3: I got a stay with you away bit.

313
00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:37,440
Speaker 1: Just be on the plane coming from the dr with

413
00:21:01,760 --> 00:21:05,239
Speaker 5: time going to Freaknik was a great experience, but a

414
00:21:05,280 --> 00:21:09,600
Speaker 5: scary one. I remember we were stuck in traffic, traffic,

415
00:21:09,680 --> 00:21:12,600
Speaker 5: was backed up. We were sitting for like thirty minutes,

416
00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:16,080
Speaker 5: but it was so many people, people walking through the traffic,

417
00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:18,200
Speaker 5: and I remember the guys that we were riding with

418
00:21:19,240 --> 00:21:22,200
Speaker 5: got in an argument with some other guys. I don't

419
00:21:22,200 --> 00:21:25,119
Speaker 5: even remember what the argument was about, but one of

420
00:21:25,160 --> 00:21:26,959
Speaker 5: the others dudes just walked up to the car and

421
00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:29,600
Speaker 5: pulled the gun on us. That was like the scariest

422
00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:32,639
Speaker 5: moment of my life. I saw my life flash before

423
00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:37,800
Speaker 5: my eyes and that was my first Freaknik. I did

424
00:21:37,840 --> 00:21:41,840
Speaker 5: return after that, again a great experience, but that was

425
00:21:41,880 --> 00:21:42,800
Speaker 5: a scary one for me.

426
00:21:43,200 --> 00:21:45,080

429
00:21:55,640 --> 00:21:58,399
Speaker 2: are just walking through the cars, hopping on top of cars.

430
00:21:58,400 --> 00:22:01,000

Speaker 5: see what freak meat was all about. We weren't of age.

441
00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:36,880
Speaker 5: We lied to our parents told him that we had

442
00:22:36,920 --> 00:22:41,840
Speaker 5: to babysit overnight, which wasn't unusual. So we drove down

443
00:22:41,880 --> 00:22:44,399
Speaker 5: to Atlanta with our shorter shorts on and our highest

444
00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:48,520
Speaker 5: plumy tails. God to Atlanta, got stuck in traffic, but

445
00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:52,480
Speaker 5: we had a ball dancing, jumping in and out of cars.

446
00:22:52,560 --> 00:22:53,399
Speaker 6: Well we happened.

447
00:22:53,480 --> 00:22:56,600

448
00:22:56,760 --> 00:22:59,280
Speaker 5: was really nice and back then, you know, we played

449
00:22:59,280 --> 00:23:02,840

450
00:23:03,520 --> 00:23:06,800
Speaker 5: and into the night. So me and my friends were tired.

451
00:23:06,800 --> 00:23:08,320
Speaker 5: They told us we can come back to their room

452
00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:10,600
Speaker 5: to take a nap. So of course we got back

453
00:23:10,600 --> 00:23:15,920
Speaker 5: to the room. No nap was taken. Me and the

454
00:23:15,960 --> 00:23:17,600
Speaker 5: guy that I was with. You know, we had been

00:23:34,320 --> 00:23:36,719
Speaker 5: fear in my eyes. By this time, my mom was

460
00:23:36,760 --> 00:23:39,600

Speaker 6: I think that's enough for my time here on earth.

593
00:30:43,920 --> 00:30:47,160
Speaker 6: I think that's about it. Uh and I'm out as sink,

594
00:30:47,240 --> 00:30:50,400
Speaker 6: you know what I mean. His transitions were always poor

595
00:30:51,120 --> 00:30:59,080
Speaker 6: and uh that what was too? Yeah, he ain't had no.

596
00:31:00,600 --> 00:31:03,360
Speaker 6: I was like, yo, bro, this was that was really

00:31:11,480 --> 00:31:14,520
Speaker 6: That was his shit and he did so. He was good.

600
00:31:14,720 --> 00:31:16,440
Speaker 6: He was happy. It was kind of it sucked for

601
00:31:16,480 --> 00:31:21,320
Speaker 6: me and my mom. Fast forward though, literally like within

602
00:31:22,200 --> 00:31:25,680
Speaker 6: ninety days, my mom went from being went from being

603
00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:31,640
Speaker 6: really sharp and very intelligent and running her own business.

604
00:31:32,160 --> 00:31:35,240
Speaker 6: She's absolutely a wee talk bad kind of chick. And

605
00:31:35,320 --> 00:31:39,280
Speaker 6: my dad supported that in her and in me. And

606
00:31:39,400 --> 00:31:41,960
Speaker 6: she was like, if my dude is gone, I don't

607
00:31:41,960 --> 00:31:46,560
Speaker 6: really know what daity is. Should I eat grass? And

608
00:31:46,600 --> 00:31:48,560
Speaker 6: should I sleep in the car? You know what I mean?

609
00:31:48,600 --> 00:31:51,040
Speaker 6: Am I supposed to wear shoes on my hand? This

610
00:31:51,200 --> 00:31:56,360
Speaker 6: chick just was her out. And so she had Alzheimer's

611
00:31:56,400 --> 00:32:00,120
Speaker 6: and needed brain surgery like within three or four months.

612
00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:04,760
Speaker 6: And that's when I became a caregiver. So I stopped

613
00:32:04,800 --> 00:32:09,320
Speaker 6: doing law and engineering and everything overnight to take care

614
00:32:09,320 --> 00:32:15,280
Speaker 6: of her. And that shit was hard. It wasn't fun.

629
00:33:19,560 --> 00:33:22,240
Speaker 6: need to pull up right. This is not a good look.

630
00:33:22,680 --> 00:33:26,400
Speaker 6: My doctor was like, yo, Jay, you try to die

631
00:33:26,440 --> 00:33:30,800
Speaker 6: before your mama. I was like, well, that's stupid. I'm

632
00:33:30,800 --> 00:33:32,720
Speaker 6: an only child. And I was like, I'm really not

00:33:32,800 --> 00:33:38,360
Speaker 6: trying to what damn doc, You could have gave it

634

Speaker 6: to me a little little mold honey or sugar some shit.

635
00:33:42,440 --> 00:33:44,680
Speaker 6: And that's when I said, Okay, I gotta find something

636
00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:47,680
Speaker 6: to ease out some of this stress, right, so I

637
00:33:47,720 --> 00:33:50,800
Speaker 6: can cope with life a little bit better. And that's

638
00:33:50,800 --> 00:33:53,160
Speaker 6: how I fell into comedy. I didn't know I was

639
00:33:53,160 --> 00:33:54,959
Speaker 6: going to fall in love with it and actually make

640
00:33:55,000 --> 00:33:59,240
Speaker 6: a career of it, which led into stand up in

641
00:33:59,320 --> 00:34:01,880
Speaker 6: the podcast, which is what I'm doing now. Both of

642
00:34:01,920 --> 00:34:04,600
Speaker 6: those are full time. But this is where the hell

643
00:34:04,680 --> 00:34:09,560
Speaker 6: we are. I've been a caregter for twelve years and

644
00:34:10,880 --> 00:34:14,920
Speaker 6: I just made nine years as a stand up comedian.

645
00:34:16,920 --> 00:34:18,799
Speaker 3: Congratulations to you on that, man.

646
00:34:19,200 --> 00:34:21,759
Speaker 2: You know what it's I find that most of the

647
00:34:21,760 --> 00:34:25,239
Speaker 2: comedians that I hear about experience some trauma and that

648
00:34:25,360 --> 00:34:28,600
Speaker 2: sent them to comedy. Like it really is a coping

649
00:34:28,680 --> 00:34:32,080
Speaker 2: mechanism for a lot of comedians, you know, for themselves.

650
00:34:32,120 --> 00:34:35,240
Speaker 3: They make people laugh to heal themselves. Yes, so that's dope.

651
00:34:35,800 --> 00:34:39,200
Speaker 2: So all right, you have this series called freak Neek Tales. Yes,

652
00:34:39,880 --> 00:34:43,799
Speaker 2: shit's fucking hilarious. So we wanted to get into that

653
00:34:43,880 --> 00:34:47,239
Speaker 2: because you know, that freak new Hulu documentary came out

654
00:34:47,520 --> 00:34:49,760
Speaker 2: and I was so excited. I couldn't wait to see

655
00:34:50,000 --> 00:34:53,040
Speaker 2: everybody Mama and Aunties that I knew on their but

656
00:34:53,120 --> 00:34:54,920
Speaker 2: I didn't get to see nobody. They kind of like

657
00:34:55,120 --> 00:34:58,759
Speaker 2: definitely gave us the PG version. They wanted to keep

658
00:34:58,760 --> 00:35:02,720
Speaker 2: everybody who had careers now in their careers. They really

659
00:35:02,760 --> 00:35:05,320
Speaker 2: protected everybody who was at Freakneek.

660
00:35:05,880 --> 00:35:08,480
Speaker 3: But everybody was scared.

661
00:35:08,200 --> 00:35:10,880
Speaker 1: Because online when they when people first heard that the

662
00:35:10,920 --> 00:35:16,279
Speaker 1: Freakneek documentary was coming out, you had lawyers doctors, mamas,

00:35:19,480 --> 00:35:21,960
Speaker 1: was no internet, no cell phones back then. Why the

665
00:35:22,000 --> 00:35:24,279
Speaker 1: fuck y'all trying to out us now? So everybody was

666
00:35:24,320 --> 00:35:25,520
Speaker 1: scared as fuck.

667
00:35:26,680 --> 00:35:29,880
Speaker 2: So all right, tell us about all right, your first freaknek,

668
00:35:30,880 --> 00:35:33,520
Speaker 2: how you decided you was going, how you heard about it,

669
00:35:33,960 --> 00:35:35,319
Speaker 2: and what happened when you got there.

670
00:35:35,960 --> 00:35:39,000
Speaker 6: Yeah, okay, now that's a lot. Okay, I heard about it,

671
00:35:39,040 --> 00:35:44,640
Speaker 6: how I knew I was going. Okay. First thing is,

672
00:35:45,200 --> 00:35:53,239
Speaker 6: road tripping in the nineties was like absolutely a necessary

673
00:35:53,360 --> 00:35:56,479
Speaker 6: thing to do. Everybody did it. You were going road

674
00:35:56,480 --> 00:36:02,200
Speaker 6: trips somewhere to do something anyway. So when Freaknick became

675
00:36:02,520 --> 00:36:06,120
Speaker 6: the thing, it was no big deal to say, all right,

676
00:36:06,160 --> 00:36:09,440
Speaker 6: this is what we're about to do in ninety I

677
00:36:09,520 --> 00:36:15,480
Speaker 6: think I'm pretty sure. In ninety two, I was a

678
00:36:15,600 --> 00:36:20,279
Speaker 6: new Delta, so road tripping, and I'm originally I went

679
00:36:20,320 --> 00:36:23,560
Speaker 6: to Howard, but I'm originally from Alabama. So now you know,

680
00:36:23,640 --> 00:36:28,319
Speaker 6: freak Nicks in at atl and I was born in Atlanta,

681
00:36:28,400 --> 00:36:30,480
Speaker 6: but I grew up in Alabama. So I'm like, I'm

682
00:36:30,480 --> 00:36:32,719
Speaker 6: about to go home and got this nail your own

683
00:36:32,840 --> 00:36:36,719
Speaker 6: weddy dudes, at what party? I hope I make it

684
00:36:36,800 --> 00:36:40,799
Speaker 6: back to class, right, And so it was like, I'm

685
00:36:40,800 --> 00:36:45,120
Speaker 6: about to come out on these foods, and they're not

686
00:36:45,200 --> 00:36:47,800
Speaker 6: ready for this because now I'm wrong wrong. I left

687
00:36:47,800 --> 00:36:51,560
Speaker 6: the South a girl, a little girl, and now I'm

688
00:36:51,560 --> 00:36:54,920
Speaker 6: about to come back down here. How popping, hid your husbands,

689
00:36:55,000 --> 00:36:57,360
Speaker 6: hid your kids, because I'm about to be in these streets.

690
00:36:57,520 --> 00:37:00,759
Speaker 6: And so the idea was they are ready for me.

691
00:37:00,880 --> 00:37:03,040
Speaker 6: Let me go because now I got some DC and

692
00:37:03,120 --> 00:37:05,839
Speaker 6: me some go go. I not know house music, I've

693
00:37:05,840 --> 00:37:08,279
Speaker 6: been you know, dropping it, load off the little loop

694
00:37:08,320 --> 00:37:11,799
Speaker 6: stuff because I grew up on that, and it was

695
00:37:12,920 --> 00:37:16,960
Speaker 6: what better thing could you do for spring break? Then

696
00:37:17,040 --> 00:37:21,480
Speaker 6: go find everybody else that went to an HBCU or

698
00:37:24,719 --> 00:37:27,520
Speaker 6: to an HBCU. And we about to descend on it, right.

699
00:37:28,400 --> 00:37:31,839
Speaker 6: And you heard about it with flyers and word of mouth.

700
00:37:31,920 --> 00:37:35,560
Speaker 6: But that's how you heard everything in the nineties. That's

701
00:37:35,560 --> 00:37:37,719
Speaker 6: how you heard around the new music that was about

702
00:37:37,760 --> 00:37:39,960
Speaker 6: to come out. That's how you heard about what clothes

703
00:37:40,600 --> 00:37:45,800
Speaker 6: were cool. I mean, word of mouth was everything. And flyers,

704
00:37:45,800 --> 00:37:50,880

Speaker 6: the country putting flyers up on light posts and bus stops,

706
00:37:58,440 --> 00:38:01,640
Speaker 6: and they were like two colors. They were black and

707
00:38:01,719 --> 00:38:05,120
Speaker 6: white or red and black, like whatever color the paper was.

708
00:38:05,480 --> 00:38:08,120
Speaker 6: And then just like somebody had written in black marker

709
00:38:09,239 --> 00:38:10,360
Speaker 6: black exactly.

710
00:38:12,520 --> 00:38:17,360
Speaker 1: Niggas as manual as a motherfucker manual fucking exactly.

711
00:38:17,920 --> 00:38:20,400

715
00:38:30,440 --> 00:38:33,840
Speaker 6: when you get into the city. And that's what's gonna be.

716
00:38:33,880 --> 00:38:37,600
Speaker 6: What's up right, And so you've heard about it through

717
00:38:37,680 --> 00:38:39,759
Speaker 6: word of mouth, and you were like, I'm about to

718
00:38:40,719 --> 00:38:42,720
Speaker 6: I'm about to be down there, you know what I'm saying.

719
00:38:44,440 --> 00:38:47,399

Speaker 6: so listen, you were originally from Atlanta, right you? Like

731
00:39:20,640 --> 00:39:24,440
Speaker 6: you literally are lightweight, just asking real adults because you

00:51:08,360 --> 00:51:10,600
Speaker 6: about this shit no more. And if I see you,

931
00:51:11,120 --> 00:51:14,680
Speaker 6: like next year or something with my husband or my

932
00:51:14,760 --> 00:51:17,239
Speaker 6: mama and the mall, ain't nobody saying nothing. Ain't nobody

933
00:51:17,280 --> 00:51:19,359
Speaker 6: will be like, oh, bitch, I saw you with Joey

934
00:51:20,080 --> 00:51:23,799
Speaker 6: uh mouthed by your ankles on top of a pickup truck.

935
00:51:24,120 --> 00:51:25,480
Speaker 6: No nobody talking about it?

936
00:51:25,560 --> 00:51:30,759
Speaker 3: Right, Oh what a time to be alive. That is

937
00:51:31,200 --> 00:51:31,840
Speaker 3: women wholes.

938
00:51:31,840 --> 00:51:35,200
Speaker 1: It's probably definitely some new age, new age shit, which

939
00:51:35,239 --> 00:51:36,840
Speaker 1: is why a lot of the women were concerned. And

940
00:51:36,840 --> 00:51:39,400
Speaker 1: it feels like it seems like on the internet people

941
00:51:39,400 --> 00:51:43,359
Speaker 1: were only bashing women that in this day time, people

942
00:51:43,440 --> 00:51:46,280
Speaker 1: were only bashing the women at freakning. But I definitely

943
00:51:46,280 --> 00:51:50,680
Speaker 1: saw somebody looking Kouchi through jeans on a documentary and

944
00:51:50,840 --> 00:51:53,799
Speaker 1: nobody talking nobody really talked about the men and what

945
00:51:53,840 --> 00:51:55,120
Speaker 1: they did a Freakning.

946
00:51:55,440 --> 00:51:58,240
Speaker 6: The men were absolutely out of control. First of all,

947
00:51:58,640 --> 00:52:01,040
Speaker 6: we weren't out of control on ourself.

948
00:52:03,960 --> 00:52:09,600
Speaker 8: Because in the nineties there was not a public, open

949
00:52:09,840 --> 00:52:15,759
Speaker 8: culture of shall I say, a freedom of.

950
00:52:16,040 --> 00:52:19,560
Speaker 3: Bisexual, homosexual or just.

951
00:52:19,400 --> 00:52:25,480
Speaker 6: Freedom homosexuality, bisexuality and definitely transgender. You didn't see that

952
00:52:25,520 --> 00:52:29,880
Speaker 6: in Freaknik. For the most part, Freaknik was what you

953
00:52:30,120 --> 00:52:35,040
Speaker 6: saw on display in most of the presentation appeared to

954
00:52:35,080 --> 00:52:39,000
Speaker 6: be heterosexual. I'm not saying that it was all heterosexual,

955
00:52:39,080 --> 00:52:41,160
Speaker 6: because listen, I wasn't with everybody. I had a hard

956
00:52:41,160 --> 00:52:44,320
Speaker 6: time keeper of my own self, Okay, I didn't always

957
00:52:44,320 --> 00:52:47,840
Speaker 6: know what the hell out so but what you saw

958
00:52:48,120 --> 00:52:50,680
Speaker 6: for the most part appeared to be heterosexual, right, and

959
00:52:50,760 --> 00:52:54,640
Speaker 6: it appeared to be college people. Now, everybody might not

960
00:52:54,800 --> 00:52:58,040
Speaker 6: be in college, but there was certainly college age. And

961
00:52:58,239 --> 00:53:05,439
Speaker 6: the dudes were absolutely out of control. They had most

962
00:53:05,480 --> 00:53:08,280
Speaker 6: of them didn't had their shirt on. Okay, a whole

963
00:53:08,360 --> 00:53:13,080
Speaker 6: lot of them had their like cut off shorts and

964
00:53:13,120 --> 00:53:15,160
Speaker 6: stuff that you know now they be like the hooja

965
00:53:15,239 --> 00:53:18,000
Speaker 6: daddy shorts and stuff like that, and they were popping it.

966
00:53:18,040 --> 00:53:20,759
Speaker 6: That's what I want also, everybody know these dudes were

967
00:53:20,840 --> 00:53:24,799
Speaker 6: not walking around looking all damn cool and just doing

968
00:53:24,840 --> 00:53:28,759
Speaker 6: a little slight bopping a two step. These dudes were

969
00:53:28,800 --> 00:53:32,279
Speaker 6: putting their shoulder and they back into it. They were

970
00:53:32,400 --> 00:53:36,200
Speaker 6: taking it down, they were scrubbing it. They had their

971
00:53:36,280 --> 00:53:39,640
Speaker 6: knees in, they back in it. They were popping they

972
00:53:39,800 --> 00:53:43,239
Speaker 6: dicks as hard as we was copping out, you hear me,

973
00:53:43,719 --> 00:53:48,520
Speaker 6: because if you couldn't pop it back, we want to

974
00:53:48,600 --> 00:53:50,000
Speaker 6: actually see that hip thrust.

975
00:53:50,800 --> 00:53:54,799
Speaker 3: Yeah right, let me see that hip thrust he had back.

00:53:55,320 --> 00:54:01,560
Speaker 6: Yes, had to be able to dance as uh energetically

977
00:54:02,239 --> 00:54:04,560
Speaker 6: as we were, or we wasn't fooling with him. We

978
00:54:04,560 --> 00:54:06,880

Speaker 3: What you had on What you Want? Ninety four?

1189
01:06:20,600 --> 01:06:27,160
Speaker 1: Did you have on Kouchie cutters boy shorts.

1190
01:06:25,520 --> 01:06:32,160
Speaker 6: By shorts but not Guccie cutters, absolutely booty shorts and

1191
01:06:33,440 --> 01:06:36,080
Speaker 6: I normally I'm pretty sure I had on Doc Martins

1192
01:06:36,120 --> 01:06:39,880
Speaker 6: because I was rocking the boutas shorts in Doc Martins

1193
01:06:39,920 --> 01:06:42,840
Speaker 6: was was my ship? Right? Like I was like, hell, yeah,

1194
01:06:42,880 --> 01:06:46,880
Speaker 6: I want to see but you also I also wanted

1195
01:06:46,920 --> 01:06:49,120
Speaker 6: to be able to like walk, you know what I mean,

1196
01:06:49,640 --> 01:06:51,960
Speaker 6: or like if you were in there in the grass,

1197
01:06:52,040 --> 01:06:53,400
Speaker 6: or if you were in the street, or if you

1198
01:06:53,840 --> 01:06:56,040
Speaker 6: jumped in and out of somebody's car. You know, you

1199
01:06:56,120 --> 01:07:04,880
Speaker 6: need some stability for your ankles. And I like shirts

1200
01:07:04,920 --> 01:07:08,440
Speaker 6: that had something kind of funny on it or something

1201
01:07:08,480 --> 01:07:12,000
Speaker 6: that was kind of like a something to talk about, right,

1202
01:07:12,120 --> 01:07:15,360
Speaker 6: like either like a black Bart Simpsons shirt that we

1203
01:07:15,400 --> 01:07:17,919
Speaker 6: had black. We had Bart Simpsons shirts where Barn had

1204
01:07:18,160 --> 01:07:22,640
Speaker 6: dreadlocks and shit like that. So somewhere that would be

1205
01:07:22,800 --> 01:07:26,160
Speaker 6: like oh sor I say, I see you, I'd be

1206
01:07:26,240 --> 01:07:30,800
Speaker 6: like what you see when you talk about like, you know,

1207
01:07:30,960 --> 01:07:35,960
Speaker 6: plain white ash shirt. I'm gonna give you a conversation piece, yo, man,

1208
01:07:36,120 --> 01:07:38,880
Speaker 6: Come on, baby, what your mama told you to sell me?

1209
01:07:45,800 --> 01:07:48,440
Speaker 3: What would you say made ninety four more special than

1210
01:07:48,480 --> 01:07:50,040
Speaker 3: the other years? Or do you agree with that?

1211
01:07:50,320 --> 01:07:54,280
Speaker 6: I do agree with the fact that ninety four was

1212
01:07:54,680 --> 01:08:01,040
Speaker 6: the best year. I think, uh, it was kind of

1213
01:08:01,320 --> 01:08:04,240
Speaker 6: a map. It was a combination of things. Number One,

1214
01:08:04,320 --> 01:08:09,040
Speaker 6: I think the word had really gotten out about like

1215
01:08:09,200 --> 01:08:13,040
Speaker 6: just word of mouth had traveled real good by then, right,

1216
01:08:13,760 --> 01:08:19,680
Speaker 6: and the Olympics hadn't happened, right, Like, you know, I

1217
01:08:19,720 --> 01:08:23,400
Speaker 6: think if the Olympics. Now, I'm happy that the Olympics

1218
01:08:23,400 --> 01:08:28,240
Speaker 6: came to Atlanta overall, but if the Olympics didn't happen

1219
01:08:28,240 --> 01:08:31,400
Speaker 6: in ninety six, I don't think ninety four would have

1220
01:08:31,439 --> 01:08:33,680
Speaker 6: been in the ES the best year. I think in

1221
01:08:33,760 --> 01:08:36,000
Speaker 6: ninety six, you know, I mean, I think every year

1222
01:08:36,120 --> 01:08:37,120
Speaker 6: would have continued.

1223
01:08:38,320 --> 01:08:40,040
Speaker 3: That was like the peak for Freaknink.

1224
01:08:40,160 --> 01:08:44,680
Speaker 6: Yeah, ninety four was the peak because of the Olympics.

1225
01:08:44,720 --> 01:08:48,920
Speaker 6: That's my personal opinion. But when the once Atlanta secured

1226
01:08:48,960 --> 01:08:54,360
Speaker 6: the Olympics, then the city changed the way they responded

1227
01:08:54,520 --> 01:09:01,240
Speaker 6: to Freaknik. Not that the Freaknik goers started to change

1228
01:09:01,640 --> 01:09:04,360
Speaker 6: what we wanted to do. When the city started to

1229
01:09:04,479 --> 01:09:10,400
Speaker 6: change how they allowed where we could go, then that

1230
01:09:10,600 --> 01:09:13,240
Speaker 6: changed the freedom we couldn't. We couldn't just kind of

1231
01:09:13,320 --> 01:09:17,760
Speaker 6: flow and meander and be it. You know, it made

1232
01:09:17,800 --> 01:09:23,840
Speaker 6: it way too restricted. I personally believed that the dynamics

1233
01:09:23,880 --> 01:09:34,320
Speaker 6: of Atlanta getting the Olympics made the city this Well, no,

1234
01:09:34,560 --> 01:09:36,000
Speaker 6: then that what made you stop going.

1235
01:09:36,800 --> 01:09:44,920
Speaker 9: I moved, I graduated, I graduated college, and I moved

1236
01:09:44,920 --> 01:09:49,800
Speaker 9: to Detroit because I was then an engineer for Ford and.

1237
01:09:49,760 --> 01:09:53,120
Speaker 6: Therefore sent me to Spain. Right, So it was a

1238
01:09:53,120 --> 01:09:57,960
Speaker 6: combination of I I was no longer uh, I wasn't

1239
01:09:58,000 --> 01:10:05,000
Speaker 6: even in the United States, and I heard that things

1240
01:10:05,040 --> 01:10:08,200
Speaker 6: were changing, and I was like, well, damn, they're not

1241
01:10:08,320 --> 01:10:13,080
Speaker 6: letting us kind of meander and mingle. That's that's what

1242
01:10:13,120 --> 01:10:17,160
Speaker 6: it was about, like the freaknik being. The destination was Atlanta,

1243
01:10:17,640 --> 01:10:20,920
Speaker 6: there was no address. The address was Atlanta, Georgia. You

1244
01:10:21,000 --> 01:10:24,160
Speaker 6: were not trying to I don't think I ever. I

1245
01:10:24,760 --> 01:10:26,960
Speaker 6: don't know that I ever made it to pee my part.

1246
01:10:27,200 --> 01:10:29,839
Speaker 6: I really was trying to remember. I don't ever remember

1247
01:10:30,040 --> 01:10:34,160
Speaker 6: actually putting my on peed my part brass. I don't

1248
01:10:34,160 --> 01:10:38,960
Speaker 6: think like I think I kind of saw. That's the

1249
01:10:39,120 --> 01:10:41,800
Speaker 6: part down the street, right, I see it. There's like

1250
01:10:41,880 --> 01:10:45,519
Speaker 6: two blocks away. I ain't never quite get there because

1251
01:10:45,680 --> 01:10:51,040
Speaker 6: because who cared. You didn't nobody I didn't care about,

1252
01:10:52,280 --> 01:10:54,240
Speaker 6: and you didn't care about who you saw. You didn't

1253
01:10:54,240 --> 01:10:57,960
Speaker 6: care if you made it to the official concert or

1254
01:10:58,000 --> 01:11:03,559
Speaker 6: the official party, that not that matter. And so I

1255
01:11:03,680 --> 01:11:08,760
Speaker 6: graduated from college from Howard in ninety four, and then,

1256
01:11:08,840 --> 01:11:12,080
Speaker 6: like I said, I moved to Detroit, and then Ford

1257
01:11:12,160 --> 01:11:16,800
Speaker 6: sent me to Spain. And so there's logistics. But then

1258
01:11:16,800 --> 01:11:19,400
Speaker 6: It's also that I heard how it was changing, and

1259
01:11:19,439 --> 01:11:21,800
Speaker 6: so that's what kind of made me stop. But I

1260
01:11:22,439 --> 01:11:27,760
Speaker 6: firmly believe if the city of Atlanta, and I'm not

1261
01:11:28,880 --> 01:11:32,840
Speaker 6: I understand as a businesswoman, and I mean I'm a

1262
01:11:33,000 --> 01:11:35,840
Speaker 6: very small businesswoman compared to the City of Atlanta, But

1263
01:11:36,000 --> 01:11:40,160
Speaker 6: as a businesswoman and an entrepreneur, I understand Atlanta had

1264
01:11:40,160 --> 01:11:43,599
Speaker 6: a decision to make You're about you're trying to play

1265
01:11:43,640 --> 01:11:46,320
Speaker 6: ball on an international level. Now, it was the first

1266
01:11:46,320 --> 01:11:50,680
Speaker 6: time Atlanta was given an international platform. And what you're

1267
01:11:50,720 --> 01:11:56,280
Speaker 6: gonna do? Right? Yeah? And so freakent coming April, and

1268
01:11:56,320 --> 01:11:59,080
Speaker 6: the Olympics are coming in the summer. What you're gonna do.

1269
01:12:02,920 --> 01:12:03,200
Speaker 3: Right?

1270
01:12:03,960 --> 01:12:06,120
Speaker 1: That was one of my questions as an adult. Now

1271
01:12:06,200 --> 01:12:09,839
Speaker 1: looking back, do you understand why Freaknik needed to be canceled?

1272
01:12:09,840 --> 01:12:13,200
Speaker 1: And aside from the Olympics and all that, just all

1273
01:12:13,240 --> 01:12:15,920
Speaker 1: the different reports of all the violence that was taking

1274
01:12:15,960 --> 01:12:18,240
Speaker 1: place out there after I think might have been after

1275
01:12:18,360 --> 01:12:19,639
Speaker 1: ninety four, maybe when.

1276
01:12:21,760 --> 01:12:24,360
Speaker 3: Who weren't going to college got ahold of it.

1277
01:12:24,400 --> 01:12:25,480
Speaker 6: So you got the dope.

1278
01:12:25,200 --> 01:12:28,640
Speaker 1: Boys coming, all the niggas coming up from Miami, the

1279
01:12:28,760 --> 01:12:32,320
Speaker 1: niggas forty years old coming to Roman coming.

1280
01:12:32,080 --> 01:12:34,519
Speaker 3: You know, so do you see now why it needed

1281
01:12:34,520 --> 01:12:35,200
Speaker 3: to be canceled.

1282
01:12:35,400 --> 01:12:39,040
Speaker 1: We're from South Carolina, so we got olaf Fiers weekend.

1283
01:12:40,040 --> 01:12:42,839
Speaker 3: Did you ever attend Demi? Yeah, yeah.

1284
01:12:43,320 --> 01:12:47,519
Speaker 2: Do you think Freaknik could be successful today in Atlanta

1285
01:12:48,600 --> 01:12:51,360
Speaker 2: like it was in the nineties, No.

1286
01:12:52,479 --> 01:12:55,519
Speaker 6: Not the way it was the nineties. But I do

1287
01:12:55,640 --> 01:13:00,240
Speaker 6: believe that the spirit of freak Nick could be successful,

1288
01:13:01,400 --> 01:13:03,599
Speaker 6: Like you know, the spirit of freak Nick. Just meeting

1289
01:13:04,240 --> 01:13:12,960
Speaker 6: a HBCU spring break something done by somebody. I think

1290
01:13:13,000 --> 01:13:19,240
Speaker 6: that could be very successful. But what we did in

1291
01:13:19,280 --> 01:13:27,280
Speaker 6: the nineties was so organic. The coordinators of Freaknik didn't

1292
01:13:27,280 --> 01:13:30,200
Speaker 6: mean which which is what you see the documentary. They

1293
01:13:30,200 --> 01:13:32,960
Speaker 6: didn't mean for They didn't know it was going to

1294
01:13:33,040 --> 01:13:36,960
Speaker 6: morph into what it was, right. It's some things you

1295
01:13:37,000 --> 01:13:40,280
Speaker 6: gotta just starting, and then the people take it to

1296
01:13:40,360 --> 01:13:43,880
Speaker 6: what they wanted to be. You know, Freaknick. As you've

1297
01:13:43,880 --> 01:13:47,640
Speaker 6: seen the documentary, it was just it was hb It

1298
01:13:47,760 --> 01:13:53,400
Speaker 6: was the Au Center. So people at Mars Brown, Clark, Moorehouse,

1299
01:13:53,439 --> 01:13:57,400
Speaker 6: and Spelman who could not afford to go back home

1300
01:13:57,640 --> 01:14:00,280
Speaker 6: for spring break. They were from d C. And they

1301
01:14:00,320 --> 01:14:02,080
Speaker 6: decided we're going to have a.

1302
01:14:02,040 --> 01:14:06,040
Speaker 10: Picnic and we're just gonna hang out for a day

1303
01:14:06,200 --> 01:14:08,800
Speaker 10: or two just because we don't have nowhere else to go.

1304
01:14:08,920 --> 01:14:11,200
Speaker 10: We don't want to stay in the dorm all damn week,

1305
01:14:11,360 --> 01:14:14,479
Speaker 10: because everybody else went somewhere for spring break. Maybe they

1306
01:14:14,520 --> 01:14:17,439
Speaker 10: went to Bikers to Black Bikers Week, or maybe they

1307
01:14:17,479 --> 01:14:22,240
Speaker 10: went to Daytona and so, but eventually everybody said, well, shit,

1308
01:14:22,520 --> 01:14:24,800
Speaker 10: we now want to go to Freakentin if we want

1309
01:14:24,840 --> 01:14:25,080
Speaker 10: to be.

1310
01:14:25,040 --> 01:14:29,960
Speaker 6: In Atlanta and be together. And you know, I believe

1311
01:14:30,000 --> 01:14:37,400
Speaker 6: what happened was after Atlanta got the Olympics. Just it's

1312
01:14:37,479 --> 01:14:39,920
Speaker 6: kind of like what happens with super Bowl when people

1313
01:14:39,960 --> 01:14:43,840
Speaker 6: go to the super Bowl. Because of the Super Bowl,

1314
01:14:43,880 --> 01:14:46,280
Speaker 6: a whole lot of people who don't give a shit

1315
01:14:46,360 --> 01:14:50,360
Speaker 6: about football end up going to that city to do

1316
01:14:51,120 --> 01:14:55,599
Speaker 6: illegal or immoral things and to take advantage of people

1317
01:14:55,640 --> 01:14:58,800
Speaker 6: that might be young or weak or whatever. That's the

1318
01:14:58,800 --> 01:15:01,840
Speaker 6: same thing that happened, I believe after the Olympics. So

1319
01:15:02,040 --> 01:15:04,800
Speaker 6: after the Olympics, you just got people in Atlanta who

1320
01:15:04,800 --> 01:15:08,200
Speaker 6: are just trying to make that money on whoever, on

1321
01:15:08,400 --> 01:15:11,960
Speaker 6: anybody in Atlanta that might be weak or vulnerable. So

1322
01:15:12,280 --> 01:15:15,760
Speaker 6: they just hung around Atlanta. And so when Freaknick rolling around,

1323
01:15:15,760 --> 01:15:19,879
Speaker 6: they're like, oh, shit, you got all these young college kids,

1324
01:15:20,240 --> 01:15:22,599
Speaker 6: they have a really good time for a couple of days.

1325
01:15:22,640 --> 01:15:25,080
Speaker 6: They might be drunk, they might be high. Oh both.

1326
01:15:25,160 --> 01:15:26,840
Speaker 6: Let me go ahead, let me get this. I'm gonna

1327
01:15:26,840 --> 01:15:28,800
Speaker 6: try to do some sex trafficking. I'm gonna try to

1328
01:15:28,800 --> 01:15:32,200
Speaker 6: put some of these girls into the prostitution. Okay, what's

1329
01:15:32,240 --> 01:15:35,280
Speaker 6: the same thing that happens at NBA All Star Weekend

1330
01:15:35,600 --> 01:15:38,040
Speaker 6: or Mardi Gras. But why are you gonna try to

1331
01:15:38,120 --> 01:15:40,720
Speaker 6: act like it's different just because it's Freaknick. Whenever you

1332
01:15:40,880 --> 01:15:46,120
Speaker 6: get hundreds of thousands of young people, even at like right, well,

1333
01:15:46,200 --> 01:15:48,040
Speaker 6: when all the white kids go down of Fort Lauderdale,

1334
01:15:48,080 --> 01:15:50,040
Speaker 6: they're doing the same shit. They do the same stuff.

1335
01:15:50,040 --> 01:15:53,439
Speaker 6: They're trying to pluck young girls, they've put them into

1336
01:15:53,479 --> 01:15:56,120
Speaker 6: the system and go sell them out of the prostitution

1337
01:15:56,640 --> 01:16:03,000
Speaker 6: somewhere in Taiwan. But the problem was because because of

1338
01:16:03,040 --> 01:16:05,599
Speaker 6: the Olympics in Atlanta needed to look clean. You had

1339
01:16:05,600 --> 01:16:10,400
Speaker 6: to fix it, Benny, Benny, benny fast. So I'm not

1340
01:16:10,600 --> 01:16:16,000
Speaker 6: against them, say hey, rather than let freak Nick become

1341
01:16:17,360 --> 01:16:23,200
Speaker 6: totally negative, let's end it. Because it didn't have any parameters,

1342
01:16:23,240 --> 01:16:25,840
Speaker 6: like there was no one place to put it. There

1343
01:16:25,880 --> 01:16:28,800
Speaker 6: was no one place to take it because Freak Nick

1344
01:16:28,920 --> 01:16:33,559
Speaker 6: was a street party on all the streets of all

1345
01:16:33,640 --> 01:16:36,320
Speaker 6: of the Atlanta you know, So so what could so

1346
01:16:36,360 --> 01:16:39,120
Speaker 6: what can you do? I think for something like Freaknick

1347
01:16:39,240 --> 01:16:43,479
Speaker 6: to be successful, you really have to. It has to

1348
01:16:43,520 --> 01:16:46,840
Speaker 6: start organically from a pure place, the way the first

1349
01:16:46,840 --> 01:16:47,200
Speaker 6: one did.

1350
01:16:51,120 --> 01:16:53,000
Speaker 3: Mm hmm. Yeah.

1351
01:16:53,160 --> 01:16:55,439
Speaker 1: But see now, even down in Miami, they're trying to

1352
01:16:55,439 --> 01:16:57,880
Speaker 1: get rid of Memorial Day weekend down there too, where

1353
01:16:58,000 --> 01:17:01,200
Speaker 1: black people tend to gravitate. You got all the locals like,

1354
01:17:01,360 --> 01:17:03,599
Speaker 1: don't come to Miami this memory of they weekend. They

1355
01:17:03,600 --> 01:17:04,960
Speaker 1: have like commercials about the shit.

1356
01:17:05,080 --> 01:17:08,120
Speaker 2: Now oh yeah, spring break too, don't come to Miami

1357
01:17:08,160 --> 01:17:08,880
Speaker 2: for spring break?

1358
01:17:09,160 --> 01:17:11,160
Speaker 3: Where are the kids to go? You know?

1359
01:17:11,280 --> 01:17:14,719
Speaker 2: Like is there anything black? Is there any black event

1360
01:17:14,880 --> 01:17:16,439
Speaker 2: for black college students?

1361
01:17:16,520 --> 01:17:17,320
Speaker 3: Right now? During spring?

1362
01:17:17,680 --> 01:17:18,759
Speaker 6: They shutting down Miami.

1363
01:17:18,920 --> 01:17:23,200
Speaker 3: Not really, not really, They have to wait for home coming.

1364
01:17:23,240 --> 01:17:24,759
Speaker 6: Why they shutting down Miami again?

1365
01:17:26,080 --> 01:17:31,640
Speaker 2: Damn, I should have been twenty the nineties. They just

1366
01:17:31,640 --> 01:17:33,400
Speaker 2: said they don't want them to come there no more.

1367
01:17:33,439 --> 01:17:35,400
Speaker 1: You know, because I mean people go to Miami, but

1368
01:17:35,400 --> 01:17:39,000
Speaker 1: then the locals they don't want those locals from Opa Laka,

1369
01:17:39,360 --> 01:17:41,960
Speaker 1: the Haitian niggas coming because the one time I went,

1370

Speaker 6: you didn't see women as much having controlled or having

1397

Speaker 6: something to say. But that was at the same time

1398
01:19:26,479 --> 01:19:29,280
Speaker 6: where Salt Pepper was then coming out with their videos,

01:21:41,080 --> 01:21:43,720
Speaker 6: to some of my younger cousins. I was like, yeah,

1438
01:21:43,760 --> 01:21:47,479
Speaker 6: the thing is, we did all of that ship. And

1439
01:21:47,680 --> 01:21:53,479
Speaker 6: also on the way back from Freaknick, I had legit

1440
01:21:53,960 --> 01:21:57,479
Speaker 6: an old school ass flashlight in the backseat of the

1441
01:21:57,560 --> 01:22:00,599
Speaker 6: car doing my calculus homework on the way back from

1442
01:22:00,640 --> 01:22:04,680
Speaker 6: Freaknick because I'm about to turn these fucking pages in

1443
01:22:05,200 --> 01:22:07,160
Speaker 6: because i still got to go to class, because I'm

1444
01:22:07,160 --> 01:22:10,160
Speaker 6: not about to get fucking put out of school, right

1445
01:22:10,160 --> 01:22:13,320
Speaker 6: because I got it grind, I'm still get this job

1446
01:22:13,320 --> 01:22:15,280
Speaker 6: before and they still about to still meet the spring

1447
01:22:15,880 --> 01:22:17,360
Speaker 6: the goals was different.

1448
01:22:18,439 --> 01:22:22,960
Speaker 2: And I'm also out of quarters, so right, the thing

1449
01:22:23,120 --> 01:22:23,960
Speaker 2: was we all win.

1450
01:22:23,960 --> 01:22:26,479
Speaker 6: It, right, the thing was, And now what we're gonna

1451
01:22:26,520 --> 01:22:29,479
Speaker 6: do at Freaknik, though, is we're gonna party our ass

1452
01:22:29,520 --> 01:22:33,600
Speaker 6: off in a way that we can't do anywhere else, right, like,

1453
01:22:33,840 --> 01:22:37,800
Speaker 6: because that was so big and then in the nineties

1454
01:22:37,920 --> 01:22:42,240
Speaker 6: and at HBCU's period is you can be your full self, right,

1455
01:22:42,320 --> 01:22:44,639
Speaker 6: you don't have to worry about race being an issue.

1456
01:22:45,000 --> 01:22:49,639
Speaker 6: So because we did go in the eighties, we would

1457
01:22:49,680 --> 01:22:53,360
Speaker 6: go to the white spring breaks because we had no

1458
01:22:53,400 --> 01:22:55,439
Speaker 6: all the spring break right, so they if you could

1459
01:22:55,479 --> 01:22:57,280
Speaker 6: You would try to get to dayte to beach or

1460
01:22:57,280 --> 01:22:59,120
Speaker 6: you would try to get to whatever, and you were like,

1461
01:22:59,200 --> 01:23:02,439
Speaker 6: they don't they don't want us here. They're not they

1462
01:23:02,479 --> 01:23:04,639
Speaker 6: don't want us on their beach, they don't want us

1463
01:23:04,720 --> 01:23:08,800
Speaker 6: at the little restaurants and all that. So when freak

1464
01:23:08,880 --> 01:23:14,040
Speaker 6: Nick started to expand, it was like, oh shit, every party,

1465
01:23:14,520 --> 01:23:19,559
Speaker 6: every parking lot, every the hood of every car, I'm welcome.

1466
01:23:19,720 --> 01:23:22,760
Speaker 6: I can't do no wrong. Like whoever I start dancing with,

1467
01:23:23,000 --> 01:23:27,360
Speaker 6: he gonna dance back. If everybody got a cool a

1468
01:23:27,400 --> 01:23:31,400
Speaker 6: beer or drinks and hunch punch in their car and

1469
01:23:31,520 --> 01:23:33,400
Speaker 6: all you gotta do is walk down the street with

1470
01:23:33,560 --> 01:23:36,280
Speaker 6: a cup, is somebody gonna pour you part of their

1471
01:23:36,280 --> 01:23:39,000
Speaker 6: beer in it? It was fake, but it was like

01:23:39,080 --> 01:23:43,360
Speaker 6: the biggest, baddest family reunion. But to what related to nobody?

1473
01:23:43,360 --> 01:23:45,479
