The discography of American rapper Big Boi consists of three studio albums, one mixtape, twenty-two singles, five promotional singles and twenty-five music videos. Big Boi initially achieved success as a member of the hip hop duo Outkast with fellow rapper André 3000; they have recorded and released six studio albums together, and the singles "Ms. Jackson", "Hey Ya!" (performed solely by 3000) and "The Way You Move" (performed solely by Big Boi) have all topped the US Billboard Hot 100. [1] In 1995, Big Boi made a guest appearance on the single "Dirty South" by American hip hop group Goodie Mob, which peaked at number 92 on the Billboard Hot 100. [2] During the late 1990s and early 2000s, he made several other appearances on commercially successful singles, including "All n My Grill" by rapper Missy Elliott, "A.D.I.D.A.S." by rapper Killer Mike and "Girlfight" by singer Brooke Valentine; these songs charted on the Billboard Hot 100. [2]
Big Boi released his first two solo singles – "Royal Flush" and "Sumthin's Gotta Give" – in 2008, with "Ringtone" following in 2009. All three songs were recorded for his purported debut studio album Sir Lucious Left Foot: The Son of Chico Dusty : however, due to legal complications resulting from Big Boi's departure from his former record label Jive Records, the album's release was considerably delayed and was not released until 2010. [3] The eventual first single from Sir Lucious Left Foot: The Son of Chico Dusty, titled "Shutterbugg", peaked at number 60 on the US Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart, [4] as well as number 32 on the UK Singles Chart and number 13 on the UK R&B Chart. [5] [6] The album spawned the single "Follow Us", a collaboration with rock group Vonnegutt. Following its eventual release, Sir Lucious Left Foot: The Son of Chico Dusty debuted at number 3 on the US Billboard 200, and appeared on several other national album charts. [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] Big Boi's second studio album, Vicious Lies and Dangerous Rumors , was released on December 11, 2012 in the United States, [12] and peaked at number 34 on the Billboard 200 in the first week following its release. [7] The album was preceded by the release of the singles "Gossip", "She Said OK" and "Mama Told Me".
