Description
We're kicking off our SXSW 2024 coverage with a serious bang! Freaknik: The Wildest Party Never Told (streaming now on Hulu) is a documentary about the epic Atlanta street party (aka the "Black Woodstock") that took place in the 80s and 90s, and put Atlanta on the map as the epicenter of Black culture. This interview has a virtual lineup of heavy hitters, including EP/participant/hip-hop legend Jermaine Dupri, EP/participant/rapper/King of Freak Uncle Luke, EP/director P Frank Williams, and  Showrunner Geraldine Porras. We discuss the cultural significance of Freaknik, the party's original student organizers who never expected what it would turn into, revisiting classic hip-hop hits from the 90s, and what the next generation of hip-hop artists can learn from Freaknik's legacy.
