A centennial celebration with its own soundtrack
The Source's October 7 retrospective describes homecoming as a celebration of 100 Years of Tiger Athletics. Its coverage reports Trina, Moneybagg Yo and K Camp at the October 2 homecoming concert, with Le'Andria Johnson headlining the gospel concert and Musiq Soulchild featured at the World Famed Centennial Gala & Concert.
The original report links the music, annual parade and centennial tribute to the weekend's football comeback. Together, the culture reporting and official game record preserve two distinct parts of Grambling's return home.
