Life and career
Khujo was born in Atlanta, Georgia, United States. He is the only featured guest to appear on every single Outkast album, including Big Boi's solo album. Khujo has released a new book titled "Straight out the A" that focuses on his life and the development of the Dirty South movement from OutKast to Goodie Mob. Khujo is a very spiritual man known for his distinct, grunty voice and free-flowing rhyming style. He rhymes about all aspects of street life, often intertwining those subject with God metaphorically or directly. In 2002 he was involved in a car crash that resulted in the amputation of his right leg below the knee.[1]
He released his debut solo album, The Man Not the Dawg, in 2002.
