Popping culture: Big Freedia brings it one more time

If you thought 2012 was a good year for bounce MC Big Freedia, you ain’t seen nothin’ yet.

After a big North American tour, including stops in Toronto and Montreal (but no Halifax, womp womp), Freedia was recently featured in a documentary on Pitchfork called The Queen Diva, and bounce music was recently featured in a great piece in The Atlantic. The mini-documentary discusses the large queer bent found in bounce.

After pulling out tracks like “Excuse” and “Y’all Get Back Now,” Freedia is back with “Feelin’ Myself,” a barrage on the dancefloor.

Take a gander.
