AUSTIN (KXAN) — Big Boi, the famous Atlanta rapper and one-half of OutKast, will perform this weekend on the University of Texas at Austin campus ahead of the Longhorns' football game against Wyoming.
Big Boi's Longhorn City Limits set will start around 5 p.m. Saturday -- about two hours before kickoff -- on the LBJ Lawn.
Hosted by UT Athletics, Longhorn City Limits is a free gameday concert held before UT home football games. The concert series started in 2018 as part of UT Athletics' efforts to enhance the gameday atmosphere around Darrell K Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium.
