Since some folk are celebrating freedom of some sort today, we’re celebrating our freedom to BE —
Free to be loud.
Free to be soft.
Free to be extra.
Free to be chill.
Free to be US in every space we step into — especially the ones we create for ourselves.

The KickBack! was a celebration of just that.
Even with the storm, y’all pulled up, showed out, and reminded the city what real joy, real culture, and real COMMUNITY looks like.
Rain or shine - we gon’ vibe regardless.

Thank you for being part of this movement. More pictures to come soon!


S/O to SFx: The Shayna Forerunner Xperience on the dope collab, adding in DJ MappQuest for the extra turn-up with the sounds & Elz Bentley as a guest host. This team understood the assignment!
