Follow your boy on Substack! I’ll be expanding on my existing Hoodoo content and going deeper into subjects I didn’t feel comfortable discussing on Instagram.

This is for my Hoodoos, strictly for my Hoodoos. πŸ•―οΈ

Nah. I saw too many tiktoks about their terms. They basically own anything you put on the app, in perpetuity.

Last night I witnessed someone who isn’t in Hoodoo say something CATEGORICALLY false about the tradition. I was mad asf all morning. Then I heard a voice say β€œwrite your book”. So now I’m writing my book.
