Big Boi - Sir Lucious Left Foot: The Son of Chico Dusty (Discussion Thread)

[Lunatic]

Loving the album! Will provide song by song ratings

[you gon always be my latin queen bitch]

Damn better than speakerbox...holy shit...ur kiddin right

[Lunatic]

If my song descriptions don't say much about lyrics it's because u already know Big Boi brings it lyrically and flow wise, ALWAYS

1. Feel Me Intro - N/A But holy shit what a dope ass Intro 
2. Daddy Fat Sax - 3.75/5 =- Good opener. Has an east coast feel to it. Not bad at all. Good song overall.

3. Turns Me On (Ft. Sleepy Brown & Joi) - 4.5/5 - Got that classic OutKast/Sleepy Brown sound
4. Follow Us (Ft. Vonnegutt) - 4/5 - Dope ass beat and real cool hook. Big Boi comes tight as usual.

5. Shutterbugg (Ft. Cutty) - 5/5 - Best beat in 2010. Cutty is dope on here.
6. General Patton (Ft. Big Rube) - 5/5 - Real hip hop ass record right here. Big Boi really spitting on here. Love the Big Rube old school OutKast spoken word on here.

7. Tangerine (Ft. T.I. & Khujo Goodie) - 4.25/5 - Sounds like a hit record. Big needs to go ahead and drop this as a single. Can barely hear Khujo Goodie though.

8. You Ain't No DJ (Ft. Yelawolf) - 4/5 Andre 3K on the beat and it's banging. Big Boi sounds dope as fuck on here. The hook isn't great but decent. Weird that Yelawolf has 2 verses.

9. Hustle Blood (Ft. Jamie Foxx) - 3.75/5 Real dope Lil Jon beat. Sounds unlike Jon. Jamie Foxx drops a dope ass hook! Big Boi flow on here tight.
10. Be Still (Ft. Janelle Monae) - 3.5/5 Dope beat. Love Janelle Monae. Good Big Boi/Janelle collabo. Beat is pretty hot. A little too much Janelle Monae on here though.

11. Fo' Yo' Sorrows (Ft. Too $hort, Sam Chris & George Clinton) - 4.25/5 Been out for a while. Hope that don't take away from rating cuz its dope as hell.
12. Night Night (Ft. B.o.B. & Joi) - 4.5/5 Beat is pretty dope. B.o.B. really smashes the hook too. Joi sounds great on here too.

13. Shine Blockas (Ft. Gucci Mane) - 3.5/5 Been out for a while. A decent, but not great album track. One of the worse tracks on here but still not bad at all.
14. The Train Pt.2 (Sir Lucious Left Foot Saves the Day) (Ft. Sam Chris) - 5/5 - Dope solo Big record. Sam Chris great on the hook. Album closer material.

15. Back Up Plan - 3.75/5 Dope record. Beat is great. Odd final track though. Train Pt.2 should be last song.

BONUS:

16. Theme Song - 3.75/5 Been out a while tagged as "Ringtone." Not bad track, cool bonus add.
17. Shine Blockas Remix (Ft. Gucci Mane, Bun B, Project Pat) - 3.75/5 Bun B kills this shit. Project Pat is good on here too. Better rating than original cause new verses better.

Overall this is a phenomenal album that you can bump top to bottom. It MIGHT even be better than Speakerboxxx, but it will take some time to make that decision. Either way, Big Boi shows he doesn't need Andre 3000 to make GREAT music but of course we all rather have OutKast than solo records. Still, Big Boi is here to stay regardless.

I'll be copping July 6

^ i loved shine blockas. I thought be still was the worst on the album, i dont wanna listen to that bitch.

And on you aint no Dj both big boi and yelawolf have a verse and a half.

[Triple OG Rapsodie]

Am I the only one who thinks this isn't as great as people are making it? It's decent, but nowhere near the quality of an Outkast album. Also I don't get what is the hype about the Shutterbug song. Not feeling the beat at all.

[soopa-man]

Almost is dope but in the middle it slows down "You Aint No DJ", "Hustle Blood" and "Be Still" could easily be replaced by left overs "Sumthin's Gotta Give" "Royal Flush", "Lookin 4 Ya" those songs dont have the edge or creativity as "General Patton" or "Follow Us" but in comparison to maybe "Speakerboxx" it doesnt have a "War"-type like track (check "Sumthin..") but sweet tracks like "Fo Yo Sorrows" and "Shutterbug" make up

[Lunatic]

"You Aint No DJ" is a grower..I agree "Be Still" & "Hustle Blood" are the two worst tracks.

"You Aint No DJ" is a grower..I agree "Be Still" & "Hustle Blood" are the two worst tracks.

I love both of these tracks. Outkast always got some diff. shit on their albums. "Southernplayalistic.." had Funky Ride, "Aquemini" had Spottieotti.., "Stankonia" had Stank Love, "Idlewild" had Mutron Angel and A Bad Note...."Be Still" is that type of track on this album. "Hustle Blood" is real dope, too. I think a lot of people don't like it just because it's Jamie Fox. IMO, he's got a real nice hook here and Lil Jon's beat is sick. The verses are great, too (love how they end with that "dum dum ditty dum".

[Man On The Moon]

Its good not great, Ill cop it if I got an extra 10 when in comes out.


I want a new Outkast album!!!
