I must admit, I was very surprised by the quality of Big Boi’s debut album “Sir Lucious Leftfoot: The Son of Chico Dusty”. Like many people, my brain sort of fooled me into thinking that Andre 3000 was the brains behind OutKast and Big was just kinda the John Oates of the operation. Boy, was I ever wrong. “Leftfoot” is a non-stop funky good time. The production is slamming, Big’s verses are tight, and it’s not overindulgent like even the best OutKast albums.
For a less succinct synopsis of the album, please go over to and make sure you check out my review. Man, 2010 is shaping up to be quite a good year for hip-hop, huh?

Alright, now that this is out, rank the other albums I asked you to do (B.o.B., Roots, Em, Drake) with Big Boi.

Roots first. Eminem last. The others too close in between to call.

I still think Drake is last for me. I listened to the Eminem again yesterday and I think it’s way too long, but I still like it better than Drake.
I have to listen to the Big Boi a few more times to really grasp it, but it’s fun as all hell.
