Rapper Boosie voiced his discontent with the New Orleans Pelicans after they offered him just $1,000 to perform during their halftime show. Taking to social media, Boosie expressed his disappointment, revealing that despite his efforts to secure courtside tickets, he has been consistently denied access by the team.
“You’re supposed to be courtside at the Pelican game. They don’t want to give me no courtside tickets. That’s cold-blooded. Pelican, they don’t f*** with me… Every time I try to get courtside tickets, I can’t get courtside tickets.”
“They offer me 1K to perform at the halftime show, and not even know courtside seats. I see Atlanta paid $10,000, $7,500 to perform… courtside seats. Pelicans told me they had 1K for me to perform twice in one night.”

In a candid Instagram Live session, Boosie revealed his frustration. His remarks shed light on the perceived lack of support from the Pelicans organization towards local artists and performers.
Boosie highlighted the stark difference in treatment compared to other NBA teams, citing examples where performers were offered significantly higher sums and courtside seats for their halftime performances. He noted that while the Atlanta Hawks reportedly paid $10,000 to $7,500 for performances, including courtside seats, the Pelicans offered him only $1,000 without the added perk of courtside tickets.
Expressing his frustration, Boosie emphasized that the Pelicans had offered him $1,000 to perform twice in one night, without providing courtside seats as part of the deal. His remarks underscore the disparity in treatment between artists and performers in the entertainment industry.
Boosie’s criticism sheds light on the challenges faced by local artists seeking opportunities to showcase their talent and gain recognition. The incident serves as a reminder of the importance of equitable treatment and support for artists within the entertainment community, especially from professional sports organizations like the New Orleans Pelicans.
