Since the 2000s, the New Orleans artist Big Freedia been at the forefront of bringing the energetic hip-hop form known as bounce into the mainstream.Many got their first taste of Freedia when she was featured on Beyonces Formation, shouting, I did not come to play with you hoes, I came to slay, bitch!

If youve never seen the Queen Diva live, hold onto something.

Her show is a spiritual experience one that consists of self-love, booty-shaking and the kind of fellowship often reserved for religious functions. It might seem strange to see spiritual experience and booty-shaking in the same sentence, but we assure that many have shared the same sentiment upon leaving her concerts.

$22, Sunday, Jan. 19, 8 p.m., Paper Tiger, 2410 N. St. Marys St., papertigersatx.com.
