Big Boi met André 3000 while attending high school in the 1980s and the two eventually joined forces as OutKast and signed with LaFace Records. After six successful albums as a duo they both decided to work on solo projects, and Big Boi’s debut solo album Sir Lucious Left Foot: The Son of Chico Dusty was released July 6, 2010. He can be identified by his rapid delivery and intricate rhymes, a style which has become more distinct since the album ATLiens. In addition to his OutKast and Dungeon Family work, Big Boi has featured in other artists’ songs. His most notable guest appearances were on the 1999 Missy Elliott hit, “All N My Grill,” the YoungBloodZ’ “85 South,” and Trick Daddy’s 2001 single “In Da Wind.” After four increasingly successful albums as a duo since 1991, André 3000 decided to make a solo album as a side project. Big Boi also produced a solo effort, and the two albums were packaged together as Speakerboxxx/The Love Below in 2003. Big Boi’s sing... Read More About Big Boi Biography...
