The Soul Train line was bumping during the Sister Dreamer Juneteenth event on 76th and Western in Los Angeles. The event brought up people from all over the state of California to celebrate Juneteenth in style. This included original Soul Train dancers who broke the Guinness World Record for longest Soul Train line. Soul Train was a classic television show that was filmed in several locations throughout Los Angeles from 1971 to 2006, and the 70s styles were in full effect with a man dressing up as the album cover of a Parliament-Funkadelic album cover. The event was truly One Nation Under a Groove.#soultrain #aquaboogie #parliamentfunkadelic #juneteenth #sisterdreamer by @michaelblackshire_

Streamer University was in session this past weekend in Los Angeles. Streamers came from Iowa, China, Arizona, Las Vegas, Sacramento, Oakland, San Diego, and Miami to audition for Kai Cenat for his upcoming Streamer University. Thousands waited outside to audition, people slept overnight for two days, and someone even quit their job for the chance to audition for Kai. Out of the thousands that waited in line outside, less than 300 actually auditioned for Kai. Streamers such as Tylil, Rakai, Adrien Broner, and apparently even Ray J auditioned, while thousands waited outside for the chance to be a full time streamer. “I just graduated college and my dream is to be a full time streamer,” one Twitch streamer told me. Currently, Kai’s Streamer University in Atlanta was shut down by the city because of the crowd capacity, in that case many streamers hope Kai comes back to Los Angeles, in hopes they have the opportunity to audition for one of their favorite streamers. #kaicenat #streameruniversity #twitch #clip #kick by @michaelblackshire_

Afroman and a Colt 45 with Channel 5. 2024 Independent Presidential Candidate and Rapper Afroman did an interview a few months back with Channel 5 after his landmark First Amendment case with the Adams County Sheriff Department. He is world-renowned for such rap songs as Because I Got High, Palmdale, and Crazy Rap. With new songs such as Lemon Pound Cake, one must ask if the boost in music popularity will lead to another presidential campaign, because as Don King once said; “Only in America!”#afroman #channel5 #lemonpoundcake by @michaelblackshire_

Keke Palmer & Lakeith Stanfield fill up SoCal residents tanks at a Shell’s Gas Station to promote the movie I Love Boosters in Los Angeles. The new film directed by Boots Riley is about Boosters, not to be confused with Bippers; a Yay Area slang term for shoplifters. The film has been said to be an anti-capitalist satire, and with gas prices in California and other states being so high; the promotional team BOOSTED peoples tanks. by @michaelblackshire_
