Biografía

1/2 of OutKast Patton was born and spent the first half of his childhood in Savannah, attending Herschel V. Jenkins High School before moving to Georgia's capital of Atlanta. He had a strong interest in hip hop music, and met Andr?? "Andr?? 3000" Benjamin while attending Tri Cities High School in the late-1980s. 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 and employs a more pimp-like mentality. He can be identified by his rapid-fire delivery and intensely intricate rhymes, a style which has become more distinct since the album ATLiens. Patton is also the more direct member of the team, and has often used his lyrics to criticize the problems that plague both the African American community and the world. One example is 2002's "War", a scathing attack on the Bush administration and the "war on terror." Solo Work In addition to his work on much OutKast and Dungeon Family-related material, Patton has also been featured on other artists' tracks without Andr?? 3000. His most notable guest appearances were on the 1999 Missy Elliott hit, "All N My Grill", the Youngbloodz' "85 South", and Trick Daddy's 2001 single "In Da Wind". After four increasingly successful albums as a duo, Benjamin decided to make a solo album as a side project. Patton also produced a solo effort, and the two albums were packaged together as Speakerboxxx/The Love Below in 2003. Speakerboxxx anchored the release with the original OutKast style, and was the half to receive the most recognition from the hip-hop audience. One song from each album was released in September 2003 as a single. Patton's choice was the single "The Way You Move", featuring Sleepy Brown. It was originally supported by urban radio, but then crossed over to pop charts and became almost as big a pop hit as Benjamin's "Hey Ya!&qu
