Treasure Island Music Festival organizers announced today that Big Grams, a collaboration between Atlanta rapper Big Boi of Outkast and Phantogram, will make their live debut on the island this year.
Perhaps the most interesting hip-hop collaboration since El-P and Killer Mike teamed up for Run The Jewels (also performing at the Festival), Big Grams was conceived while Big Boi and Phantogram collaborated on several tracks for the rapper’s 2012 release Vicious Lies and Dangerous Rumors.
Several tracks have already leaked ahead of Big Grams’ self-titled album release on Sept. 25, including the debut of “Fell in the Sun” on Friday. Listen Below:
Big Grams will replace Azealia Banks on the lineup, who recently canceled her North American tour. Big Boi performed at the festival as a headliner with Outkast last year.
The festival, Oct. 17-18 on Treasure Island, will also host Deadmau5, FKA Twigs, the War on Drugs, the National, Father John Misty and more. View the complete lineup with audio samples HERE.
