Protect your young; lock up your elderly and sickly; shield your women and loved ones. It’s a miracle we’re all still alive. In recent weeks, there has been a virulent attack on Black America. By whom, you ask? A late night adult cartoon called Freaknik: The Musical, produced by auto-tune aficionado T-Pain.

As expected, based on the tall tales and recollections of the original Freaknik, the cartoon is filled with strippers, drug use, aggressive hip-hop music, and whatever else you can think of that may have contributed to the event’s excommunication from Atlanta. Not the most positive reflection of African American culture the world has seen. Read more.
