    Since it’s quite well known that most of us ATLiens stick together, it’s no surprise to see my boo, Antwan ‘Big Boi’ Patton featured in T.I.’s AKOO (A King of Oneself) clothing line. Twan is the first celeb pinup for AKOO and the shots were taken by legendary photographer, Zach Wolfe. Peep the socks… :lol: That’s why I love him!
