Rapper Big Boi has revealed that he’s set to release his second solo album, Sir Lucious Leftfoot: The Son of Chico Dusty, is on it’s way.

"The South got something to say, and we gonna keep on talking.” The roll-out plan for his LP seems to coincide once again with that of his partner, Andre 3000.  "Me and 'Dre were on the conference call [recently]," Big explained. "He's working on his album; my album is done. We're gonna wait until the top of the year — January or February — to put it out. Then 'Dre is gonna come hit y'all, and [then] we're gonna do the Outkast album. So y'all gonna get three records from the 'Kast next year."

Atlanta based rap duo The Ying Yang Twins are set to perform for United States troops during a eight-day, five country USO tour. The rappers will headline a bill that includes former UFC champion Chuck “The Iceman” Liddell, comedians Gabriel Iglesias and Edwin San Juan and model/singer Mayra Veronica. Rappers Kaine and D-Roc are taking their charitable contributions one step further. The rappers will perform their new single “Wild Out,” which will be available on iTunes in the coming weeks. All proceeds of the sales of the track will go to The Brook Army Medical Center, located in San Antonio, Texas. The BAMC provides level-one trauma support and prosthetic limbs for soldiers in need. The Ying Yang Twins new album Karma is slated to hit stores in February of 2009.
