Big Freedia Mural.
Big Freedia is a rapper and dancer who vaulted to national fame from New Orleans’ bounce scene. Bounce is a distinctly New Orleans mode of hip hop, built on a few repetitive beats and call-and-response chants. It’s made for dancing, in a style that often entails bouncing a particular piece of anatomy. Big Freedia made her name as a so-called “sissy bounce” artist — an openly gay and in some instances trans performer of bounce music (born Freddie Ross, Big Freedia is not particular about pronouns but often goes by she/her).
