Most of y’all know that Big Boi’s album Sir Lucious Left Foot: The Son of Chico Dusty was one of the best albums of the year, so I’m glad to see that he’s touring to support it after a long hiatus. Unfortunately there is no word on whether Andre 3000 will make any appearances at [...]
In 1994, I became obsessed with hip hop and music in general. The album that did it, Outkast’s debut, Southernplayalisticcadillacmusik. Prior to that point, all I knew about Southern hip hop was that I thought the Geto Boys were the most “real” rap group I’d ever heard in my life, “My Mind’s Playing Tricks On [...]
So the word around the interwebs is that there was/is some apparent beef between Big Boi and Jive about this song making it onto the final cut of Sir Luscious Left Foot: The Son of Chico Dusty (which it didn’t). Jive didn’t ‘know what to do with it’ (WTF is that about?) and in a way they set out to make it disappear. HA! [...]
Big Boi – Shutterbug [Audio clip: view full post to listen] Big Boi just dropped his first single, “Shutterbug” off his upcoming Sir Lucious Left Foot: The Son of Chico Dusty album. Right from the jump the beat comes in and just snatches you. It’s that old school 80′s type beat - fit for candy painted whips and long [...]
Even though there might not be any breakout stars for 2010, there are several blockbuster and possibly game-changing projects on deck for 2010.

This showcase is gonna be insane! Big Boi of Outkast is performing with a LIVE BAND, and the Dallas Austin Experience as well. K’Naan and the ever sassy Janelle Monae will be on the bill as well. Also include is the Florida Black Punks Whole Wheat Bread who we profiled way back in 2005. My [...]
A very dope and overtly political song from Big Boi from his solo album, entitled Sir Luscious Left Foot: The Son of Chico Dusty which drops this year. The track is slightly cliched’ but its good to see Mary J back in form.
Anybody down in Atlanta going to this? I’m not the biggest ballet fan, but this type of thing is such a good look for Big Boi. It pretty much Outkast can do pretty much anything and still come out on top. However, didn’t we all think that Andre 3000 would do something like this first? [...]
