Hi, Loralie. Welcome to the forum.

This is not Spanish and it makes no sense in English.

This is slang, actually ghetto language, probably emanating from the northeastern U.S., perhaps New York City.

"Carnies" is slang for carnival workers, also usually ex-convicts. My guess is that this is being used as some type of familial expression, perhaps how you might say, "chicos" or "tios" in Spanish.

"Whos jo frenz," means "Who are your friends?"

It scares me that I know this. You probably do not want to learn to speak English, so to speak, like this.
