It’s scary to believe that just a little more than half a decade ago, OutKast was the hottest group on the planet. Meanwhile, Big Boi’s excellent solo debut, Sir Lucious Leftfoot-The Son of Chico Dusty, came out (after numerous delays) last summer, to pretty much universal indifference. One of the best albums in hip-hop’s most artistically fruitful year in ages, it deserves a second chance for sure. If you want a taste, you might want to check out the video for the set’s latest single, “Be Still”. While the video itself is a little on the low-budget side, the song is dope-it’s one of Leftfoot’s best tracks, and Big Boi is assisted by his super-buzzy protege, Janelle Monae.
