As one half of Outkast, Big Boi doesn’t need to busy himself with anything else at the moment other than focussing on the follow-up to Speakerboxxx/The Love Below, THE hip-hop record of the last decade (Kanye, eat yer heart out).

Yet, busying himself with a mix project he is: Got Purp? Vol. II is the sequel to the mix tape Got Purp? by DJ Drama and the Aphilliates, and likewise it features a selection of Big Boi affiliates – from old hands like Killer Mike and Sleepy Brown to newcomers like Scar and Janelle Monáe, the latter of whom marks her recorded debut on Got Purp? Vol. II.

“Kryptonite (I’m On It)” features a full spectrum – Big Boi himself, Killer Mike, BlackOwned C-Bone and Rock D – and is built of a delicious loop from producers the Beat Bullies. It’s a clear standout on Got Purp? Vol. II, principally because the release features far too many interludes scattered throughout as well as an intro and an outro in its whopping twenty-seven track listing.

The release closes with a series of previews that may or may not come from Idlewild, the forthcoming Oktkast soundtrack to their album of the same name. It doesn’t sound like the duo though – the third features references to Dungeon Family, the loose collective of Atlanta artists of which Outkast is a member.
