In popular culture With the rise of Georgetown's men's basketball team in the 1980s, the Hoyas became increasingly associated with the Black community in the United States and in the Washington, DC, area in particular. Consequently, Georgetown came to be referenced in work by African-American artists, including Spike Lee's She's Gotta Have It, Outkast's Aquemini and Jay-Z's Kingdom Come. References External links
