Big Boi Ft. Mary J. Blige - Something’s Gotta Give

Atlanta rapper Big Boi has been out of the spotlight and off the charts for quiet some time now. That, however, is about to change as he gears up to deliver his first solo album, Sir Luscious Left Foot…Son Of Chico Dusty.

The LP, which is set to hit stores this coming August, is being produced mostly by Organized Noize, who handles a vast amount of Outkast’s material including the entire Southernplayalisticadillacmuzik LP and “So Fresh, So Clean” from Stankonia.

“I’m shooting to finish the album by the end of August,” Big Boi tells Billboard.com.

“This album is Big Boi to the extreme,” he continues. “It’s like a recession special. I’m talking about what’s going on in the world, with everything from rising gas prices to the election. It’s just my insights on life up to this point.”

Mary J. Blige, Andre3000, T.I., & Raekwon have all been confirmed to be appearing on the album. The first single, “Royal Flush” featuring Andre 3000 and Wu-Tang Clan’s Raekwon has already hit the airwaves with a video in the works directed by Bryan Barber.

The second official single will be “The World is Too Big” featuring Mary J.Blige. Source

“Outkast are stronger than ever,” said Big Boi to MTV News recently, addressing lightheartedly the rumors some time ago that the group would break up.

“We got a few songs we already picked out,” said Big Boi of their upcoming project. “We pick the beats first. I drop my [solo album] in July, Dre puts his out [later this year], and we drop that Outkast record at the top of [next] year.”

The first single off of the album, which is titled Sir Luscious Left Foot: The Son of Chico Dusty, is called Royal Flush, featuring Andre 3000 and Raekwon. The song, named after Big Boi’s production group, has been making its rounds on the Internet.

“I said I wanted to bring that hip-hop back,” said Big Boi. “My album is about lyricism and about the craft. I saw Raekwon and he jumped on it. Actually, me and Raekwon recorded three songs. We were gonna finish it with just me and him. When Dre came back from Japan, he heard it and said, ‘I wanna be on that.’ I gave him the beat. He came back in a couple of months and was like, ‘Let’s do it.’ ”

Big Boi also spoke on other collaborations for the album. “Thirteen cuts. Everything is brand new. I got a duet with Mary J. Blige that will probably be the second single, called ‘The World Is Too Big.’ It’s definitely monumental. I needed somebody that could sing with that emotion and power. Like an old-school soul singer. That Motown throat! I always wanted to work with her.”

According to Big Boi, “The World is Too Big” addresses the election, poverty, crime and the war. He also noted that he co-produced every song on the album; other production will come from Organized Noize, Mr. DJ and Royal Flush. Probably guests on the album will be Khujo Goodie and T.I.

And the album title? “Sir Luscious Left Foot” is one of Big Boi’s many aliases, and “Dusty Chico” is the nickname his father gained as a fighter pilot.
