Next week, two New Orleans legends will come together to release a new mixtape.

The legends are bounce queen Big Freedia and influential producer Mannie Fresh. The mixtape will be called The Bounce Back, and it will come out days before Big Freedia Bounces Back premieres on Fuse TV.

The first song from that project is "Dive" and — shocker — it features that old school New Orleans bounce sound that both artists are known for.

Mannie debuted the song earlier in the week on Pitchfork Radio. But now the song has a wider release.

We reached out to Freedia for a quote about what we can expect from her upcoming collabo tape. She reached back to us and said:

"You can expect a boomin’ New Orleans beat and New Orleans style. Lots of cool things coming up for me, mostly...the new season of my reality TV show, Big Freedia Bounces Back, on Fuse TV."
