COMICAL CORNER #3 - SWEET BROWN

AINT NOBODY GOT TIME FOR THAT

                                               SWEET BROWN aka Kimberly Wilkins

Sweet Brown is a pseudonym used by Kimberly Wilkins, an Oklahoma City resident who was interviewed by local news station KFOR News Channel 4 after evacuating from her apartment building that was set on fire. Her emphatic testimony of the chaotic scene quickly led to massive exposure on YouTube.

On the morning of April 7th, 2012, a three-alarm fire broke out at an Oklahoma City apartment complex in Oklahoma, leaving one person hospitalized for smoke inhalation and five units damaged.


The local station KFOR News Channel 4 was among the first to arrive on the scene and interview one of the displaced residents Sweet Brown. During the interview, she stated that she had woken up to get a “cold pop” when she thought someone was grilling before she realized there was a fire. Brown then proceeded to run out of the apartment without shoes. In describing the heavy presence of smoke from the fire, she explained that she suffered from Bronchitis then uttered the now famous line “ain’t nobody got time for that!” which became one of the more memorable lyrics in the song created from her interview.


If you have never seen this clip of the interview and ensuing song then you absolutely must look at it.

If you have seen it once, you absolutely have to see it again.
If you have seen it hundreds of times, you totally need to watch it again and again!

I never tire of this clip and I never tire of Sweet Brown.


I always got time for that.


CHECK IT OUT!!!!
