Boosie Badazz is following in fellow Louisiana native Lil Wayne‘s footsteps and making a bid to perform at the 2025 Super Bowl, which will take place in New Orleans.
Unlike Weezy who is looking to headline, however, Boosie is simply hoping to be brought out as a special guest.

“SUPERBOWL N NEW ORLEANS 2025!” he wrote on Twitter/X last week. “WHOEVER PERFORMS SHOULD BRING ME OUT N ITS A WRAP!! IM GO KILL IT #facts”
Then on Monday (February 19), Boosie spoke on the topic again while talking to fans on Instagram Live.

“‘Will you perform at the Super Bowl if they ask?’ Do dogs bark? Do dogs take shits? What you think?” he said. “Them people call me for the Super Bowl, I’ma already be on Canal St. I mean if you have a Super Bowl in Louisiana and you call Louisiana artists to perform – if Boosie don’t perform, people gon’ have something to say.”
Lil Wayne put his Super Bowl dreams in the air in December and explained why headlining the halftime show would mean so much to him.
“Just as bad as I wanted to see my name at the top of that list when I was whatever age it was and I would bust into the office and get that Billboard magazine,” he told Bleacher Report‘s Taylor Rooks of his desire to perform at the big game.

“Just as an artist, you know, ’cause this has nothing to do with the sport. As an artist, this is an achievement. This has nothing to do with the sport — that’s so crazy. I don’t care what teams are playing, what city it’s in. ‘You performed for the what?!’ Like, what? Oh man, so that right there is an achievement.”
Wayne revealed the Super Bowl is still on his bucket list despite having already enjoyed big moments at the Grammys and his Lil Weezyana Fest.

“Thank God I’ve been on the Grammy stage, and my name has been called, and I’ve won. And I’ve performed at the Grammys and that’s amazing,” he continued.
“But I know for a fact that when I do the Lil Weezyana Fest, there’s like a trillion people out there, and being in front of my city and seeing that many people is amazing. So that right there is amazing.”

He continued: “So to know that a Super Bowl would be… what?! Going to the Super Bowl and watching the halftime show and wishing, when you see the artist, you be like, ‘They could’ve sung the song that I was featured on!’ I’m featured on everybody’s song — you could’ve brought me out!”
Then ahead of this year’s Super Bowl Halftime show, which was headlined by Usher, former NFL star Deion Sanders co-signed Wayne’s bid to perform and promised he’d make some calls to see it happen.
“I’m already into next year, into New Orleans, and I’m petitioning right now for this young artist — he’s dope. He has to be the halftime performer,” he said on Weezy’s Young Money Radio.
“He’s a bad boy. They may have to give him more time than time allotted ’cause he has so many hits. I know Roger [Goodell, commissioner of the NFL]! I’m gon’ put a phone call into that right now.”

Lil Wayne added: “And you know, JAY-Z got a lot to do with that too. I know him so I’ma talk to him as well. Aw man, we gon’ get this done.”
