Big Boi feat. Ced L Young – Chickens N Birds

An oldie (in blog terms) but a goodie. Don't think this was on the Sir Lucious Left Foot album either (?):

Stream Big Boi's Sir Lucious Left Foot: Son of Chico Dusty album at Billboard.com

So its confirmed, no 3-Stacks (as featured on "Royal Flush" or "Lookin' For Ya") on the Sir Lucious Left Foot... album. I don't know the whole back-story obviously, but on the face of it, that just seems like some mean-spirited sh-t on the part of Jive Records to deny the clearances so that Big could have his potna on his solo album debut....

New Music: Big Boi feat. Andre 3000 & Sleepy Brown – Lookin’ For Ya

Track apparently not on the Sir Lucious Left Foot album due to some f-ckery over 3-Stacks by the overseers back on my old plantation....

Video: Andre 3000 x Kobe Bryant - All Together Now
I know this did the rounds already but its 3-Stacks doing the Beatles in honor of Kobe Bryant's quest for a fifth NBA championship ring and since I just finished watching the Celtics play the Lakers TOUGH last night, I figured it was still apropos to post!

New Music: Big Boi - Shutterbugg

FIYA With real talkbox used properly, not this autotune f-ckery! I still think that Jive shoulda got behind the "Shine Blockas" track with Gucci Mane with a real radio push, proper video (not this) etc. and maybe he wouldn't be on Def Jam now but it is what it is. Trust me though, when his Sir Lucious Leftfoot: Son of Chico Dusty album drops, it will be considered one of the best hip hop albums of the year by anyone who has any real taste in hip hop.

New music: Big Boi feat. Gucci Mane - "Shine Blockas"
Another track from the forthcoming (at some point) Sir Lucious Leftfoot album:
Big Boi feat. Gucci Mane - "Shine Blockas" [mp3 download links: zip file | yousendit via mp3waxx.com / TJ]
The album is AMAZING but it's way too hip hop for today's stupid-ass, R&B'd out music market. This might be Big's best shot at a real radio single - he should should shoot a video for it and press GO on this damn album 'cos hip hop needs it!
Bonus track:
Mariah Carey feat. Big Boi, Gucci Mane, & OJ Da Juiceman - "H.A.T.E.U (Remix)" [yousendit via mp3waxx.com] <-- A Ghostown DJ's "My Boo" jack??! This might be a SMASH!!!!

Video: Big Boi Speaks on the Sir Lucious Leftfoot album
With Maurice Garland. So I guess not quite yet signed to Def Jam like he claimed in an Eye magazine interview last month. As I said on Bodega Radio last week, I've heard the album (or at least the version that existed at that point a few months ago) and it's SICK! When it drops, it will be considered one of the best hip hop albums of the year and will (hopefully) end the ongoing underrating of Big Boi as compared to 3-Stacks. [via Big Boi]
Sidebar: why is Maurice's logo the exact same as Big Boi's and Outkast's. That's some serious nut swingin'!
