LSU Student Government announces Rob 49, Real Boston Richey and Vickeelo as 2025 Groovin’ headliners.

Student Government took to its Instagram earlier this week to drop hints at who the 2025 headliners would be. The official lineup announcement was posted on Wednesday, April 16. New Orleans native Rob 49 will headline the show with Real Boston Richey and Vickeelo supporting him. Rob 49 rose to fame in 2023 after his feature on “Topia Twins” by Travis Scott, and he is most known for his recent hit song “WTHELLY.” The song and catchphrase took the internet by storm after its release on March 21, 2025.

Real Boston Richey is a Florida rapper who blends Southern drill with Memphis hip hop, and Vickeelo is a New Orleans native known for her bounce sound.

The concert will take place on April 24 at the Pete Maravich Assembly Center, and tickets will go on sale Thursday, April 17 at 9 a.m.
