Who says diamonds are just for girls? Big Boi's like to wear white ice too or champagne diamond ice in this matter!

Outkast member, Antwan "Big Boi" Patton known for his "So Fresh and So Clean" fashion flair was honored last week for an event called, Solitaire Kicks, a business launch for Prriya and Chintans Couture boutique on Peachtree Rd. where the event was held. Prriya and Chintans Couture is now offering custom iced out sneakers exclusively designed by the boutique. The $50,000, 13 karate, Nike So Cal shoe was presented to Big Boi by Laced Up (got to be one of the coolest looking sneaker stores in Atlanta!) owner and Big Boi's long time friend Ernel Dawkins and P&C Couture boutique owner Rita Patel. Oooh weee, $50k worth of diamond bling...now that's some haute footwork worth checking! It pays to be a celeb (they always get fly free stuff) and have friends in the business.

Yes Big Boi is known for fashion but before he was heralded by being a promoter of unique style he was first and is still a rapper turn smart investor. So the question is when is the dynamic duo that is Outkast (my FAVE rap group of all time...) going to release another bleepin album! We are losing grip of the soundtrack to 2006's Idlewild and the double disked Speaker Boxx/The Love Below released in 2003. Well Big Boi told all the guests at the event that at the "Top of 2008" their album would be released! Woooooooooh! Okay I can now breathe a sigh of relief. Hip Hop is NOT dead after all.

Proceeds from the diamond studded event went to Big Boi's Big Kidz Foundation, founded in 2006 with a dedication to education and an exposure to culture for children.

Appearance made by:
Peach Candy (Rasheeda Atlanta Rapper & Candy of Ex R&B Group Xscape) They both looked great and were very pleasant.

Thank you to Nicole Garner and team of The Garner Circle PR for the invitation to the posh event! When they are on the scene business is taken care of.
