Big Boi from Outkast shows the first single for his 1st solo album
_________________

Antwan André Patton (born February 1, 1975 in Savannah, Georgia), better known by his stage name Big Boi, is an American rapper, song-writer, record producer, and one half of the alternative hip hop duo Outkast.

Patton was born and spent the first half of his childhood in Savannah, attending School before moving to Atlanta with his Aunt Renee to pursue his interest in music at Tri-Cities High School, a Visual and Performing Arts Magnet School. He had a strong interest in hip hop music, and met André "3000" Benjamin while attending Tri Cities High School in the early-1990s. The two eventually joined forces as Outkast and signed with LaFace Records. In contrast to his more sedate, philosophical partner, Patton's on-record persona enjoys partying. He can be identified by his rapid-fire delivery, a style which has become more distinct since the album ATLiens. Patton has often used his lyrics to criticize the problems that plague both the African American community and the world. One example is 2003's "War", a scathing attack on the Bush administration and the War on Terror.

Big Boi recently announced a solo album in the works, titled Sir Luscious Left Foot, will be released in 2009. Purportedly similar in sound to Speakerboxxx, it will feature production from André and longtime Dungeon Family production team Organized Noize. He mentioned that he has 9 out of 12 planned tracks made already, and had also planned to release a single by New Year's Eve. However, It was not released on the announced date.

On March 20, a song from Big Boi's solo album leaked to the Internet. Titled Royal Flush, it features Andre 3000 and Raekwon. The song features a small sample from The Isley Brothers tune Voyage to Atlantis in between each verse, from the three rappers. In August, Big Boi announced an October 28, 2008 release date for "Sir Luscious Leftfoot Saves the Day". He later announced at VH1s Hip Hop Hop Honors on October 5th, that the album is "done and it should be coming out at the top of the year". Big Boi then went on to announce what the future holds for him and his Outkast partner, After I drop Sir Luscious Left Foot and Andre puts out his solo record, were going to hit the fans with another Outkast album, so you might get all three next year."

On July 17 2009, Big Boi revealed in an interview with Eye Weekly that he was leaving LaFace/Jive and signing to Def Jam, where the album will finally be released.
