Big Boi doesn't need gimmicks. The Atlanta rap icon relies on lyrical dexterity, icy confidence, and a formidable back catalog to carry a crowd, all of which he brought to his headline slot on Day 2 of FADER FORT in Austin. He ran through hit after hit alongside Sleepy Brown, but "The Way You Move," from OutKast's Speakerboxx/The Love Below, was the high-point. Watch that performance at the top of the page, get some sleep, and then prepare for another stacked day at FADER FORT on Friday.
