Big Boi’s latest album Boomiverse didn’t get the credit it deserved but the rapper is continuing with the promotion as he releases a new video today for ‘In The South’.
The song, which features Gucci Mane and a posthumous appearance from Pimp C, gets the animated treatment today. Big Boi is also working on a new cartoon called Hotlanta Waxxx. “[This video] is not a part of the Hotlanta Waxx series but it comes from that realm,” he told Yahoo. “Actually, I got the idea from when I was doing the teasers for the songs for Boomiverse. Cory Mo, the producer for the song, has an animation team and he sent me a clip of some of the guys’ work and we got on the phone and just came up with this funkadelic psychedelic video concept for ‘In The South.’”
