Big Boi spent a decade and a half as one half of OutKast before 2010's Sir Lucious Left Foot: The Son of Chico Dusty proved he could steer the spaceship alone. Born Antwan André Patton in Savannah, Georgia, in 1975 and raised in Atlanta, he formed OutKast with André 3000 in 1992, and together they turned Southern hip-hop into something wild, funky and impossible to predict across six studio albums, with "Ms. Jackson", "Roses", "So Fresh, So Clean" and "Elevators (Me & You)" among the hits.
Their double album Speakerboxxx/The Love Below won three Grammys and gave him a solo showcase, "The Way You Move" with Sleepy Brown, which went all the way to the top of the Hot 100. Once OutKast went their separate ways in 2007, Def Jam signed him as a solo act, and Sir Lucious Left Foot reached number three on the Billboard 200 to glowing reviews. "Shutterbugg" is its calling card, a rubbery, synth-funk strut that even rock stations couldn't resist.
He's never stayed in one lane: Vicious Lies and Dangerous Rumors followed in 2012 and Boomiverse in 2017, and he has cut an EP with Phantogram and formed the Purple Ribbon All-Stars with Janelle Monáe, Bubba Sparxxx and Killer Mike. In 2025 he entered the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a member of OutKast.
