GFP Note - After I went to sleep on Sunday night, I woke up several times and each time, I was hearing the song Iko Iko. I was also hearing it when I woke up but I checked the song and the lyrics and couldn't figure out why. I told Mother God about it and she said that she used to listen to this song, sung by Cyndi Lauper, over and over but she didn't know what it meant either. She embarked on a search to learn more and she uncovered a lot! This song is significant and contains a lot of codes. It tells us that the veil is lifting and that everything will be all right.
Check out the vids and text below to learn more.

"Iko Iko" is a much-covered [2] New Orleans [3] song that tells of a parade collision between two "tribes" of Mardi Gras Indians [4] and the traditional confrontation. The song, under the original title "Jock-A-Mo," was written in 1953 by James "Sugar Boy" Crawford [5] in New Orleans. The story tells of a "spy boy" (i.e. a lookout for one band of Indians) encountering the "flag boy" or guidon [6] carrier for another "tribe." He threatens to "set the flag on fire."

Crawford set phrases chanted by Mardi Gras Indians to music for the song. Crawford himself states that he has no idea what the words mean, and that he originally sang the phrase "Chock-a-mo," but the title was misheard by Chess Records [7] and Checker Records [8] president Leonard Chess [9], who misspelled it as "Jock-a-mo" for the record's release.[1] [10]
