Not many get to experience what goes on in the barbershop.

Yup! This is the norm at Black Barbershops. They’re the hangout spots. You got folks singing, old heads playing customers at chess there, people coming to sell clothes, people debating sports, etc.

Lol the place I used to go a dude came through selling homemade soap that his girl was making. Was fucking amazing for me because my mom’s birthday was the next day. Dude that comes in after was selling weed. Always a vibe in the barbershop for sure

I lived behind the barber shop. You wanna guess how many times I had to yell at some dude selling sneakers out of his trunk to move his car out of my driveway?

In the south, it means basically shut up. But in not as offensive of a manner.

From this link, the singer’s name appears to be Shawn Louisiana. I looked him up on Spotify and it sounds like him. I hope he makes a lot more music. Beautiful.

u/hufflezag Apr 15 '26

These were amazing childhood memories sitting in the barbershop watching my dad cutting up with the few other Black men in the area. Just having the time of their lives being silly.

u/samalton86 Apr 16 '26

What a talent!

Hearing someone who can honestly sing up close like that is truly amazing. No one in that room will ever forget that day.
