’10 Best Albums: #4 Big Boi Sir Lucious Left Foot

Number four should’ve been number one to me. A lot was riding on Big Boi. Could he successfully deliver an album without his partner-in-rhyme, Andre 3000? Turns out he can, with this solo debut, Sir Lucious Left Foot: The Son Of Chico Dusty. Big Boi sets the tone with the ubercool ,”Feel Me” and “Daddy Fat Stax.” From there, the funk hits the fan and Sir Left Foot unleashes a synchronized flurry with “Shutterbug”, “General Patton”, “Tangerine”, “You Ain’t No DJ”, and “Hustle Blood”. Meanwhile, co-stars like Gucci Mane, Too $hort, and B.o.B, live up to their roles on “Shine Blockas”, “Fo Yo Sorrows”, and “Night Night”  respectively. Who needs 3 Stacks? Antwan’s a big boi now.

    This Album was wayyyyy better than recovery……and equal in value with Thank Me Later

  2. Catcher freeman says:

    it was better than i expected. im glad he is getting accolades he deserve, but within the next few years i do want that Outkast album and a 3 stacks solo. this was a dope ass appetizer tho

  3. Jay Hommy says:

    Co-SIGN !!!

  4. kcmo says:

    i know shutterbug was in my head all of 2010 subliminalbly. i think i even had a couple dreams about it. Then they put it on the 2k11 so i could never get away from it

  5. Word says:

    Hmm. Put Recovery in this spot and Big Boi in the Top 3 and you got yourself a deal.

    Great album right here, Recovery was great too and I understand the acclaim that MBDTF garnered as well. Teflon Don on the other hand was good, production wise anyway, but I think people overrating it just because everyone wanna hop on the Ross bandwagon now. Teflon Don with its 11 songs shouldnt be near MBDTF or Big Boi album if you ask me, but sales must be factored in as well so…Big Boi flopped hard as shit so I understand somewhat.

    But nah, I would have Teflon Don under TML, HIGO, RPM…etc etc but its gauranteed the Top 3 spot now sooo. Thats just my opinion

  6. PITRI says:

    ^^ why don’t you get of recovery’s nuts smh..no one even mentioned it..

  7. kcmo says:

    Who needs 3 Stacks?

    ^^^^^

    i do…… musically

  8. Vexed and Glorious says:

    should have been number 1.

  9. Word says:

    And im not saying Telfon Don wasnt as good because it had 11 songs. But if you have 11 songs on your album tjay leaves little room for error and i feel like Mc Hammer was wack, same with Super Fly, Not a Star, and All the money in the world. All songs I didnt care for but thats just me.

    But once again, THIS ALBUM WAS NEAR PERFECT minus Back Up Plan so its my number 1, maybe 2

  10. mikey says:

    damn, Eminem own this site so Recovery gonna be ahead of a lot of better albums.

  11. CapricornReligion says:

    Dammnit Fuck it. I keep Hearing Good shit about this album. Im about to cop it Tommarrow. I HOPE Im not about to waste My money.

  12. slimshady says:

    FUCK YOU RAP RADAR!!!!!!!!!!!! YOUR OPINION IS WORTHLESS. THIS SHOULDA BEEN NUMBER 2 AFTER MBDTF. YALL DUMBASSES GONE PUT RECOVERY OVER THIS????????? GTFO.

    WHAT DOES “BEST ALBUM” MEAN TO RAPRADAR= SALES.SALES.SALES. NOT ACTUAL CONTENT.

  13. veesky says:

    ^^^^ Me too…as big of an OutKast fan as I am. I couldn’t bring myself to buy this album yet. Other than a few tracks I enjoyed…maybe I’ll give it a second chance

  14. Uh oh says:

    3. Recovery
    2. Teflon Don
    1. MBDTF

    Mad predictable

  15. TJ says:

    yeah this would’ve been higher in my book but nonetheless big boi showed that he can compete with 3 stacks over who your favorite member of outkast is. classic record!

  16. Ac@pella! says:

    Dope pick. I bought it and still bump it to this day. One of the best this year.

  17. Black Shady says:

    you tellin me Banks’ HFM2 doesnt make Top 10 ? fuck outta here

    Em/Kanye/Ross gonna be top 3 i guess..

  18. mikey says:

    YN not gonna get that shade45 gig if he dont give Em a high ranking, my nigga is playing chess.

  19. @Beware4 says:

    “Antwan’s a big boi now.”

    good line

  20. amityvilleev says:

    Recovery is not Eminem’s finest work but it is better than MBDTF and definetely better than Ross’ album…

    3-MBDTF
    2-HFM2
    1-Recovery

  21. J. O. says:

    #3 – Teflon Don
    #2 – Recovery
    #1 – MBDTF

    I bet my left nut on it

  22. yung silv says:

    This album was the shit better than recovery

  23. TEAM WORLD says:

    LOWER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  24. Belize says:

    Surprised @YN & @B.Dot didn’t put this as worst albums. -_-

  25. Downgraded To Human says:

    why didn’t u write how many records he sold like banks.

  26. Feenixa says:

    should have been #1!!!! amazing ass album

  27. Dead Snoopy says:

    “Number four should’ve been number one to me.” I co-sign that claim.

  28. DIGGSY!!! says:

    u ever heard of the david blane?

  29. Big Boi is the illest rapper in the fuckin’ game.

  30. mac DIESEL says:

    SHOULDA BEEN #2!!!! NO WAY IN HELL TEFLON DON IS BETTER THAN THIS!!!! YA’LL FUCKED UP AGAIN!!!!

    DON’T HATE ON MY OPINION!!!!

  31. slummy says:

    My album of the year. I dont think 3stacks solo could stack up to this

  32. JunnBug aka Jun Nishihara says:

    mad props and RESPECT to YN and the whole crew at RR for givin Sir Lucious the 4th place at this great internet-twirling BEST-list-event of the year. i listen to MBDTF and Flockaveli too, but nobody can rhyme SO NATURAL as Big BOi Antwan does… his voice IS the musical instrument to me.

  33. @J. O. says:

    U owe me a left nut.

  34. ATLien says:

    I’m sorry but this was BY FAR the album of the year. It had a variety of amazing beats and unreal flow and lyrics. Big Boi proves on this album that Outkast can’t be touched, even without 3 Stacks.

  35. Hater Patrol says:

    This would of been my number one..

  36. Slobodan says:

    you ain’ got shit on Big Boi, he is a murderer.

  37. Benja says:
