Boosie Badazz delivered a high-energy headlining performance at Fant-Ewing Coliseum, capping off a night that highlighted regional talent and school pride during ULM’s Spring Fever concert. Special guests Damar Jackson, Snug Brim and 38 Deezie joined him and connected with the crowd while representing Louisiana’s growing music scene.
Jackson, a DeRidder native and University of Louisiana Monroe alumnus, drew strong support from the home crowd. He has built a following through his R&B sound and projects such as his EP Ninety3Until. His return to campus carried extra significance as a former student performer. His set established the tone for the night by blending melodic vocals with a crowd response that grew louder as the lineup continued.
Snug Brim and 38 Deezie followed with performances that matched the energy inside the arena, emphasizing their Louisiana roots and engaging directly with the audience. Throughout the night, each artist thanked the university and the city of Monroe, which resonated with the student-heavy crowd. Their interactions created a stronger connection between performers and attendees while reinforcing the local focus of the event.
Students packed Fant-Ewing Coliseum before the headliner took the stage. Many stood, sang along and reacted loudly to each performance. The energy rarely dipped as the crowd stayed engaged between sets and built anticipation for Boosie’s arrival.
When Boosie took the stage, the crowd immediately erupted. As one of Louisiana’s most recognizable hip-hop artists, he delivered a performance that met the audience’s expectations. Fans rapped along to his songs and turned the set into a shared experience that felt bigger than a typical concert performance.
By the end of the night, the event reflected both campus spirit and regional culture. Students and artists came together in a moment that highlighted ULM pride and Louisiana’s lasting influence on hip-hop.
