OutKast will receive one of the highest honors in music next month when they are inducted into the 2025 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. Killer Mike, J.I.D., and Sleepy Brown will be in the building to properly cement the momentous occasion.
The official Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Instagram account announced that all three Atlanta artists will be at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles on Nov. 8, and the specific “take the stage” language suggests that the trio will be performing as well.
Each artist also has a unique relationship with the legendary duo. Mike was part of the Dungeon Family, home to OutKast and Future, and appeared on their albums Stankonia and Speakerboxxx/The Love Below. J.I.D. has called the “Roses” artists one of his biggest influences, and worked alongside Big Boi on Masego’s “Garden Party.” Sleepy Brown helped to craft their iconic sound and contributed to their albums ATLiens and Aquemini.
OutKast’s inductee class includes Salt-N-Pepa, The White Stripes, Bad Company, Chubby Checker, Cyndi Lauper, Joe Cocker, Soundgarden, Warren Zevon, Thom Bell, Nicky Hopkins, Carol Kaye, and Lenny Waronker. They will mark the 13th Hip-Hop act added to the prestigious club, joining the likes of JAY-Z, The Notorious B.I.G., 2Pac, Eminem, Missy Elliott, and A Tribe Called Quest. The ceremony will stream live on Disney+.
The duo has primarily operated as solo acts in recent years. Big Boi appeared on “High Rise” with Sleepy Brown, Akeem Ali, and Organized Noize earlier in 2025. He also collaborated with Brown on Big Sleepover, a 15-song joint project in 2021.
André 3000 famously released a full flute album, New Blue Sun, in 2023. He also joined Killer Mike on “Scientists & Engineers” from his 2023 LP Michael. Most recently, 3K shared the seven-track EP, 7 Piano Sketches. Listen to the project below.
