A decade later, Freaknik is back — in animated form. Rapper T-Pain (left) has executive produced a one-hour animated special set to air on Adult Swim in March called “Freaknik.” Before I lived in ATL I heard about it, Anyone who lived in Atlanta in the 1990s knew it well. In the 1980s, Freaknick started out as a modest gathering of African-American students during the third week of April. But by 1994, it had mushroomed into a city-wide spring-break party with traffic jams, men videotaping booty-shaking on car roofs, and debauchery galore.
With no warning, the party would hit major thoroughfares, creating snarls for hours. Folks who weren’t even in college started causing trouble. So the city SHUT IT DOWN!! The special features T-Pain as the “ghost of Freaknik.” Fellow rap starLil Wayne voices a man named Jesus
Plotwise, Lil Wayne’s character advises four guys who are coming to Atlanta to compete in a battle of the bands contest during Freaknik, according to Adult Swim spokesman Tim De Claire.Read More Click Now
