Bluesfest: Big Boi

Though I'm mostly a rock'n'roll guy, I do branch out quite a bit, and there are a few rap albums in my stack of CDs. And like many who only dip their toes in the genre, the albums of Outkast make up an outsize portion. I really enjoyed Big Boi's solo effort Sir Lucious Left Foot: The Son of Chico Dusty as well - it was on my Top 10 list in 2010, and his live show didn't disappoint either.

The man himself.

Needless to say he wasn't up there alone ... I believe it was Killer Mike and Blackowned CBone kicking it with him, but I won't swear to it.
