Big Boi Presents His Message

Big Boi's forthcoming album "Sir Luscious Leftfoot ... Son of Chico Dusty," due in October via Laface/Zomba, features 16 tracks led by the politically-driven first single "Sumthin's Gotta Give," featuring Mary J. Blige.

The recent release touches on rising gas prices and the war in Iraq. An accompanying video, with guest appearances from Hill Harper and John Legend, was serviced this week, reports Billboard.

"I chose this song first because being in the game, I feel a responsibility to entertain but also lecture about life," Big Boi told a press gathering Wednesday. "I'd rather get people to vote instead of running to the strip club."

"Sir Lucsious" features production so far from Organized Noise, Lil Jon, Scott Storch and Mr. DJ, while George Clinton, Too Short, Raekwon and cohort Andre 3000 make guest appearances. Cee-Lo is slated to appear on a track as well.

Other songs on the album include the guitar-heavy "Night Night," which addresses "those who have been sleeping on me"; the chopped-and-screwed "Daddy Fat Sax"; the cars-inspired "Dubbz"; the title track, on which Big Boi shares his thoughts on other MCs; the ladies anthem "Turns Me On"; and the street single "Royal Flush," on which he rhymes, "I am the wrong n*gga to cross / and the fist n*gga to jam / with the AK4-7 over microphone in hand.
