ORANGE CRUSH 2k25 Performance recap
TYBEE ISLAND, GA – April 19, 2025 — The sand was hot, the crowd was louder than the waves, and Kevin “Tana” Tucker, better known as @Tana9.13, showed up like the headliner even before the sun hit its peak.
At this year’s Orange Crush Festival Beach Bash on Tybee Island, Tana made it clear that “Big Dog Shyt” wasn’t just a song—it was the theme of the whole damn weekend.
From the moment he stepped on stage, Tana commanded attention with an energy that hit as hard as the 808s vibrating through the beachside speakers. Shirt off, mic gripped tight, and eyes locked on the sea of fans stretching down the shoreline—he owned the moment like a veteran, not a first-time performer.
“Who really came to CRUSH something today?” he roared before dropping into his debut single. The crowd response? Instant chaos. Phones up. Hands waving. Students and spring breakers jumping like they knew every word—even those hearing it for the first time. The chant of “Big Dog Shyt!” echoed down the coast like a war cry.
And the presence? Unmistakable.
Tana didn’t just perform—he planted a flag in Orange Crush history. No gimmicks. No background dancers. Just real bars, real heat, and raw stage dominance.
The beach crowd, a mix of HBCU students, Savannah locals, and road-tripping music heads, gave him a reaction reserved for artists with ten times the catalog. That’s the power of one song done right. That’s what made this set feel like a legendary debut rather than a casual appearance.
CRUSH Festival Founder George Turner called it one of the most authentic breakout moments of the day, noting:
“Tana didn’t just ride the wave—he brought the tide in with him.”
Backstage after the show, Tana was cool, humble, and hungry.
“I told y’all one record was enough,” he said, grinning through sweat.
“Now imagine what I do when I drop two.”
