Regarding Big Boy’s involvement in the Super Bowl halftime show, Maroon 5 frontman Adam Levine told Entertainment Tonight, “Big Boy is my dude…He is Atlanta…he is just incredible…he epitomizes music in this part of the country.
As for whether or not Andre 3000 might join them on stage, Adam said, “I cannot divulge the details on that level ’cause that will be spoiling it.”
