ATL’s Own YFN Lucci Set to Light Up Halftime at Hawks’ City Edition Game

The Atlanta Hawks have announced that YFN Lucci is set to perform at halftime during the team’s first City Edition home game against the Detroit Pistons on Tuesday, Nov. 18. The night will also mark the debut of the Hawks’ 2025-26 Nike NBA Peachtree City Edition uniforms, celebrating the bold character of Atlanta and the Peachtree streets that connect its diverse neighborhoods.

As a hometown star known for his chart-topping hits and a defining voice in Atlanta’s hip-hop scene, Lucci’s return to center stage marks a full-circle moment for one of the city’s most celebrated voices. His performance embodies the same pride, culture, and connection that the Peachtree design represents, bringing the city’s sound and spirit together for an unforgettable night. Limited tickets remain for this game at Hawks.com/tickets.

Atlanta’s own YFN Lucci has long been one of the city’s most influential voices, shaping modern trap with a rare blend of grit, melody, and heart. Signing to Think It’s A Game Records in 2014, he quickly made his mark with Wish Me Well and Wish Me Well 2, projects that redefined the genre through raw storytelling and introspection.

“It feels good to be back here at the arena, especially for the unveiling of the Hawks’ Peachtree City Edition uniforms and the new court,” said YFN Lucci. “Performing in my city is always a good time.”

His platinum-certified Key to the Streets, Billboard Hot 100 hit Everyday We Lit, and gold-selling Heartless cemented his star power among hip-hop’s elite. Lucci’s collaborations with stars such as Rick Ross, Jeezy, and Latto, alongside his community work through the Well Wishes Organization, reflect an artist who stands for loyalty, authenticity, and uplift.

YFN Lucci begins a powerful new chapter with his latest album ALREADY LEGEND., a 21-track statement of growth and resilience. Led by his introspective single JAN. 31st (my truth) and standout cuts like PIECES ON MY NECK (featuring 21 Savage) and LOOK WHAT I DID, the project captures his evolution while honoring his Southern roots. With ALREADY LEGEND., Lucci reaffirms his status as one of Atlanta’s most vital voices and a defining force in modern hip-hop.

This year’s season home opener featured a halftime performance by Atlanta rap icon Quavo. It was an extension of last season’s entertainment lineup that included featured performances from artists such as Goodie Mob, Gucci Mane, Jagged Edge, Keith Sweat, Mariah the Scientist, Shamea Morton, and more.

In Atlanta, the streets aren’t the only thing buzzing—on Nov. 18, the court will be too. Lucci brings the city’s soundtrack; all you need to bring is the hype.
