Leave it to Big Boi aka Sir Lucious Left Foot to bring back the status quo of Southern whip game oriented Hip-Hop. If you acknowledge Dubs’ hectic guitar riffs and ridiculous bass, and even the homage paid to the intro of ‘Ain’t No Thang‘, its almost like we’ve got “Southernplayalisticadillacmuzik” one more gin’ (Organized Noize will be doing much of the production on this LP as well…). This is just another glimpse into Big Boi’s upcoming “Sir Luscious Left Foot: The Son of Chico Dusty” release date unfortunately still tentative, but stay tuned for more.

Fresh off of that recent interview with Sir Lucious, presenting the official video for ‘Somethings Gotta Give‘ not an official single, but still confirmed off of his upcoming album “Sir Luscious Left Foot: The Son of Chico Dusty” (release date unknown). Both artists really visualize the current events of today in this music video, so your definitely going to want to check it out after the break…

So one half of Outkast Sir Luscious Left foot aka Big Boi was recently interviewed by Dj Envy, and elaborated on an assortment of topics relative to him in the entertainment world. Expect conversations regarding his upcoming album “Sir Lucious Left” (which we heard earlier with tracks ‘Royal Flush‘ & ‘Somethings Gotta Give‘), the status of Outkast, his alleged altercation with Killer Mike, and much more…

‘Something’s Gotta Give’ is a relaxed and relative joint from the other half of OutKast, Big Boi. The track will probably be off of his upcoming album “Sir Lucious Left Foot” (which we heard earlier in the year with ‘Royal Flush‘), and the title was possibly inspired by the intro to the Atliens joint, ‘Ova Da Wudz‘.

Presenting a couple snippets of the ballet collaboration “Big” between Outkast’s Big Boi and director John Mcfall which is out now. The 1st clip is of Miss Janelle doing her thing, the 2nd clip features mostly Big Boi and Janelle Monae towards the end and the last is composed of interviews with contributing members from the production. From what I’ve been able to derive the show consists of two 50 minute acts and plays on the juxtapose of ballet and hip-hop. Featuring the performance of the bangers ,Bombs Over Baghdad, Morris Brown, Kryptonite, and Player’s Ball among others, all choreographed by Lauri Stallings. Featuring a cast of over 80 including Sleepy Brown, Janelle Monáe, Joi Gilliam, Scar, Big Rube, Rock D, and members of the musical group Konkrete. This is a must see for any Hip-Hop aficionado. Hopefully the debut this saturday and sunday inspired enough fervor to spark an US tour, LA could definitely use distinction on this level. Vids after the break.

One half of Outkast ‘Sir Lucious Left Foot’ (aka Big Boi) preps his solo album also titled “Sir Lucious Left Foot” for an imminent release in 08′. ‘Royal Flush’ would be our first overdue glimpse at an official Outkast project since The “Idlewild” soundtrack dropped in 06′ and although it isn’t officially a single, I can only assume that it will be. Immediate impressions? Well I haven’t heard BB spit this fiery over a track since the long forgotten days of “Aquemini”, and if you acknowledge the fact that they went ahead and snatched up The Chef one mo’ gin makes it obvious what their trying to achieve… That epic sound that we have been scarcely blessed with as of late, stay tuned for more info on Big Boi’s upcoming joint and for the close minded individuals who insisted in proclaiming that these brothas have lost it, well your opinion is now null and void.

Which is one shoe purchase I could never ever justify, in consideration to the millions of impoverished around the world that is. These better be the last pair of kicks you ever cop. Regardless of all of that, these luxurious So Cals (a new hybrid from Nike which combines the classic look of the Air Force 1s, with Air Technology) were presented to Big Boi by Laced Up Shoes who hails from Atlanta and embellished by Prriya and Chintans Diamonds, a jewelry boutique also from ATL. Check out a few more photos of Big Boi showing off his frivolous new gift as well as its official press release after the break.
