A highly-anticipated event is coming to Miami next month, featuring a star-studded lineup and celebrating the freedom of a notorious figure in the hip-hop world. Demetrius "Big Meech" Flenory, the founder of the Black Mafia Family, will be hosting a welcome home concert on February 13th at the Amerant Bank Arena. The concert will serve as a celebration of his early release from prison and will feature performances by some of the biggest names in the industry.
One of the most highly-anticipated performances will be by none other than Rick Ross, who will finally have the chance to perform his hit song "BMF" in front of the man who inspired it. Joining him on the lineup will be other big names such as Lil Baby, 21 Savage, Sexxy Red, Kodak Black, 42 Dugg, Est Gee, Moneybagg Yo, BossMan Dlow, and more. The concert, titled "Big Meech's Welcome Back Legacy Concert," will take place in Sunrise, Florida, and is expected to be a night to remember.
Event producers XO Touring and AG Touring have promised that the concert will be a truly memorable experience, where the music industry will come together to celebrate a legend. In a statement to Vibe, they said, "It will be a night where the music industry unites and celebrates a legend." A representative of Big Meech also added that the concert will serve as a "catalyst for continued efforts towards criminal justice reform."
The sentiment of using this event as a platform for change is echoed in the statement released by the Black Mafia Family founder's team. "He's out, but millions more remain trapped inside – there's still so much work to be done," the statement reads. "We need to push for real change, for a justice system that recognizes the dignity and potential for redemption in every individual."
This welcome home concert is a long-awaited moment for Big Meech, who was released from prison on October 15, 2024, after serving most of his 30-year sentence. He was convicted in 2008 on multiple charges including criminal conspiracy and money laundering for his involvement in the Black Mafia Family crime ring. Although his projected release date is January 27, 2026, he was granted early release and transferred to a halfway house where he will complete the remainder of his sentence under supervision.
One of the performers, Sexxy Red, is known for her strong support of Big Meech and his release. In fact, when news of his early release was made public, the St. Louis rapper took to Twitter to offer her services for the welcome home concert for free. "Where da welcome home party @ I'm trona perform for da freeski," she tweeted at the time.
The inclusion of Sexxy Red in the lineup comes as no surprise to fans, who have been eagerly waiting for this event ever since Big Meech's release was announced. With such a star-studded lineup and a cause that goes beyond just music, the welcome home concert is sure to be a night to remember.
