“Them kids ain’t know nothing about Freaknik,” Atlanta music executive Clay Evans Jr. says in the full tailer for the upcoming Hulu documentary Freaknik: The Wildest Party Never Told, which dropped on Thursday.
Premiering Thursday, March 21, the film is a “celebratory exploration of the boisterous times of Freaknik,” the iconic HBCU spring break party in the ‘80s and ‘90s that drew thousands to Atlanta, per the official synopsis.

“What began as a Black college cookout, soon became known for lurid tales of highway hookups and legendary late-night parties that ultimately led to the festival’s downfall. At its height, Freaknik was a traffic stopping, city-shuttering, juggernaut that has since become a cult classic,” the description continues.
“Rooted deep in its history of civil rights, thriving Black leadership, and focus on the uplifting of Black culture and education, Atlanta became the only place a festival like this could grow and thrive. Though it ceased over two decades ago, the infamous legacy still resonates through nostalgia and a new generation’s longing for a care-free platform that celebrates and promotes Black excellence, joy and fortitude.”
The doc was executive-produced by famed rappers-turned-music executives “Uncle” Luke Campbell and Jermaine Dupri, and acclaimed recording artist 21 Savage. The trio will appear in the film alongside Lil Jon, CeeLo Green, Too $hort, Killer Mike, Kenny Burns, Rasheeda, Jalen Rose, Shanti Das, journalist Marc Lamont Hill, Sharon Toomer, Amadi Boon, Tony Towns and more.
