Booty-clap pied piper and Sissy Bounce emissary Big Freedia has spread awareness of her gender-bent rap amalgamations far beyond their New Oreleans origin, though it’s only with next week’s Scion A/V-presented self-titled EP that Freedia, and the Bounce genre at large, is seeing a proper national release. It is also Freedia’s first release of all-original material. Priming the pump for that is this new video for her live staple “Y’all Get Back Now,” directed by Bob Weisz and Josh Ente. It’s as playful, vibrant, colorful, green-screened and full of back as an Eric Wareheim/Major Lazer production, though rather than Skerritt Bwoy’s oversized face hovering over the proceedings it’s Big Freedia making like Godilla(zz) everywhere.
The Scion A/V Presents: Big Freedia EP is out 3/29. Dig into more Freedia at her site, learn more via this post.

anyone who has the chance to see Freedia DO IT. He came to a festival here in Pittsburgh last year and it was the highlight for me. SO much energy.
My cousin doing his thing!!!!!! I’m proud cousin, keep it up!
I totally agree with what Clark said – anyone who can see Freedia live should DO IT. She puts on an amazing show!
Also wanted to let you know that fellow “sissy bounce” rapper Katey Red just released her 1st ever music video online today: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o8ZeYslcGNg
I love that both have such great videos out right now, hopefully this will push bounce music to the forefront of the national music scene!
