	MP3: Big Pooh - Dirty Pretty Things Album Sampler	10.19.2011


	Fans Given A Chance To Preview Dirty Pretty Things Before November 1st Release

The Sampler: Big Pooh can hardly wait for November 1st to release his upcoming album, *Dirty Pretty Things. Neither can his fans, so, in giving loyalists a chance to get an early glimpse at his sophomore solo effort, the North Carolina MC is releasing an official album sampler. Clocking in at a little over 10 minutes, the sampler includes standout songs from DPT, and is masterfully blended by South Carolina's DJ Skillz, who can also be heard providing the hype for the sampler's introduction. The album sampler starts off with Big Pooh's most recent single, "They Say,"* which was released last week and features singer Choklate. Next comes the ominously melodic, Nottz-produced and Torae-featuring "Are You Ready," followed by Pooh's tribute to women, "Around The World (Ladies Love)" featuring Novel. "Real Love," which deals with Pooh's relationship with his brother and features vocals and production by Focus..., is also featured before the sampler fades out on the track "Free" featuring BlackSoul. "I decided to put out a sampler to give the people a little taste of the improved me," says Big Pooh, "If singles are the hors d'oeuvres, then let the sampler serve as an appetizer before the full meal."

The Background: Rapper Big Pooh, former member of the highly respected and recently disbanded group Little Brother, has seen how much hip-hop and the business of music has changed over the years. He has ridden the music industry roller coaster since 2003, from receiving critical acclaim as indie darlings with Little Brother, to getting a taste of major label politics when they signed with Atlantic Records, to amicably leaving the group and recording his debut solo album, *Sleepers. With his newest solo project, Dirty Pretty Things, via his own For Members Only* label, Pooh strips away the smoke and mirrors and gives it to you raw. On the opening track, "Interdependent," Pooh touches on central themes that haunt the album, such as his uncertainty of what the future holds. Other songs find Pooh stunting about making money as an indie artist, not despite it, trying to do right by his lady, aspiring to be free in order to have choices in life, and chronicling the high stakes of street life. Dirty Pretty Things will be available for purchase November 1st.
