HBCU homecoming brings generations together—and South Carolina State University’s homecoming holds a special place for 12Kyle. In “Happy Homecoming,” he recaps a weekend of tailgating, reconnecting with friends, celebrating his 30-year class reunion, and enjoying a House Party celebration featuring Kid ’n Play, Full Force, AJ Johnson, and Tisha Campbell.

Who is homecoming really for: current students or returning alumni? 12Kyle shares his perspective as a former SC State football player and proud alumnus, reflects on how college shaped his life, and explores why coming back to the yard feels like a family reunion.
