Big Freedia is back and ready to make you dance. Fresh off of an exciting 2022, the artist returns with a new dance single just in time for summer. Last year, Big Freedia worked with Beyonce on her hit track “Break My Soul.” It wasn’t the first time she worked with Queen Bey, but it was the first time she had been fully featured. Previously, the pop superstar had sampled Freedia on her 2016 single, “Formation.” When asked about featuring on the dance track with Beyonce, Big Freedia expressed her excitement. “The speakers were like jumping at me,” she said. “The bass was coming out of the speakers so heavy. I was in there just like shaking and like excited and overwhelmed.”
Now, Big Freedia is here with a dance track of her own. This time, she’s calling in pop star Ciara for a feature. “The first time I heard this song I thought the melodies were infectious. But also, even before that, Freedia and I have had such an amazing chemistry since we met, we both talked about working together,” Ciara said about working on the track. “The record is melodic, it’s a song for everyone from little kids to the grandmas, it just makes you feel joy.”
On her new single, Big Freedia displays an extremely infectious confidence. “’$100 Bill’ is about feelin’ like new money hot off the press! Big money! Feelin fresh and extra fabulous, but mostly about feeling good in your own skin,” she said to Source of the track. “Owning your walk, your talk, your scent, your ride, anything that makes you feel like your best self.” The New Orleans artist said that she and Ciara have been contemplating working together for quite some time.
The song really is infectious. It opens with Ciara’s melodic vocals over a chill rhythm guitar part, calling to mind the spirit of summer nights out with friends. Of course, given Freedia’s reputation as a bounce artist, you know there are plenty of parts in the song that will make you want to get up and shake it.
