BIG BOI ATLANTA.
So I missed my post yesterday, BUT I’ll still make sure I have 30 posts in 30 days. If you’re wondering why I so flippantly disregarded my diligent blogging it’d be because yesterday I threw a party for Big Boi (of Outkast for some of you) in his home town of Atlanta. I love Atlanta. I really do. However, throwing a party for a local icon in their own home market is a bit of a, well, I’ll call it treat.
Green Lantern was DJing and killed it on the turntables. Big Boi ended up getting on stage with Pill and Killer Mike for the last two songs (Kryptonite) with Swift and some of the other crew as well on stage. The part in Kryptonite when it shouts out being from the A, well at that part you would have thought I was from The A due to my leverage in which I was bouncing and taking pride in my “city”. Then Big took the mic and sang “Mrs. Jackson” on his own in the VIP area for another song.
My night ended at Big Boi’s studio, Stankonia, hanging around with everyone and listening to Killer Mike spit lyrics as he’d get passionate at this or that topic. I hope if you’re reading this, you know me well enough to know that I stand in awe of moments like this. My job augments this adventure of my life and I am grateful to build my story through experiences like last night.
