Grove Street Party has been the unofficial Kentucky football anthem since 2014, with the popular rap song blaring through the Kroger Field speakers every Saturday since. After seven long years, rapper Waka Flocka Flame – the artist behind Grove Street – made his first official appearance with the team leading up to Kentucky’s matchup against the Florida Gators on Saturday.
He led the Wildcats out of the tunnel prior to kickoff and then celebrated with the team on the field following its 20-13 victory over the Gators. For one night, he was an official member of the Kentucky football program.
