Recognized as the larger-than-life ambassador of New Orleans Bounce music, Big Freedia is a nationally acclaimed hip-hop artist, TV personality, and cultural icon.

She lent her signature sound to Beyoncé’s “Formation”, Drake’s “Nice for What”, and even covered “Judas” for Lady Gaga’s Born This Way The Tenth Anniversary album in 2021. This summer, Big Freedia expanded her musical legacy with the release of her debut gospel album, Pressing Onward (August 2025), featuring collaborations with Tamar Braxton, K.
