Buck & Spike
If you have not seen it yet you really do need to check out Memphis’ own Jookin ambassador, Charles “Lil Buck” Riley, in the opening credits to Spike Lee‘s new film Da Sweet Blood of Jesus, which opens in theaters Feb.13th. It’s kinda beautiful. And if you haven’t read it yet, you also want to check out the fantastic interview he gave The Flyer in Nov. when he came home to dance in New Ballet Ensemble’s Nut ReMix.

It’s worth noting that shortly after Lil Buck’s loving shout out to Stephen Colbert’s natural Jookin abilities, he was prominently featured in the Colbert Report‘s grand finale.
And to think, it all started with a bunch of teenagers in a parking lot…
