While the black experience is not a monolith, there are many teachings and cultural aspects that we share within our community – and one of those things is sacred songs.
Some songs have become essential within the black community. From The Gap Band's "Outstanding" to Juvenile's "Back That Azz Up," these songs have the power to pack a dance floor in seconds.
So when Regina Hall recently admitted she'd never heard Crime Mob's "Knuck if You Buck" — another black bop — while visiting The breakfast clubyou can imagine the shock.
Regina stars in new satirical drama Honk for Jesus. Save your soul. alongside Sterling K. Brown. And in one scene, the two - who play a beloved pastor and the first lady of a mega-church - are seen rapping verbatim to "Knuck if You Buck" as they drive home.
Focus characteristics
Considering the song a "Negro spiritual", host Charlamagne Tha God openly expressed his disappointment in Regina and Sterling for having to learn the song's lyrics.
It was then that Regina revealed that not only did they have to learn the lyrics, but it was actually the first time they heard the song.
Regina didn't realize how popular the song was until they filmed the scene. In an attempt to save herself from further embarrassment, the 51-year-old actor revealed that she had already moved to Los Angeles by the time the song was released (2004), and since stopping going in clubs in her twenties, she doesn't get a chance to hear it.
Regina admitted that it took her "about two or three days" to learn her verses. She also talked about the pressure to make everything perfect as Charlamagne reminded her that this verse of the song is where people really get noticed.
But even though she received criticism for not knowing the song initially, Regina is proud that she can now recite it verbatim without hesitation.
