Big Boi Announces Massive US Headlining Tour

posted in: Music News

Outkast member Big Boi has carved a nice niche for himself with his last two solo efforts, and this Spring he will finally take his eclectic sound on the road with a recently announced US headlining tour.

“We starting it off in my own backyard . . . that’s right up the street,” Big Boi tells Rolling Stone. “They’ll show me love before we get out there in the midst of the world.”

The 45-city run kicks of April 18 in Georgia and will take the MC coast-to-coast (and back again) before wrapping up in Brooklyn, NY on June 20. You can view a complete list of tour dates below.
