Dorrough’s title track gets the “Flavor In Your Ear” remix treatment.

Texas’s own Dorrough, (or Dorrough Music, as he is sometimes referred), returns with his second LP, following the success of last year’s addictive clubs-to-the-cars anthem, “Ice Cream Paint Job”. The title track for the Prime Time Click frontman is “Get Big”, another bouncy Nitti produced banger that captures much of the same effect of his previous club hits. It’s here where Dorrough thrives; he’s got a crisp, commanding voice and a trademark Southern drawl that make him stand above many of his peers, taking command of the beat and carving out a handful of party cuts that help string the album together. Songs like “Get ‘Em Live” (feat. Jim Jones), “Ahh Yeah”, and “Si Si I Like” find Dorrough in the zone, sure to find there way to dancefloors over the next year or so.

Much of the rest of the album is spent in local territory, drawing heavy influence from his contemporaries, such as UGK. While Dorrough’s subject matter doesn’t really extend past the usual handful of hood hop topics, he’s got a fresh handful of Cadillac that would make Pimp C proud. Each “Hell of A Night”, “Way Better”, “Trouble” and “Freaky” find him balancing out over bumping, slow, southern soul. And let’s not forget that impetuous intro, “Sold Out”, which finds him in top form, while “M.I.A.” gives us a fleeting glimpse inside his head.

While this is an album made primarily for the riders, some of the overly R&B styled songs and near miss club tracks drag it down from time-to-time. The hustle-never-sleeps attitude of “In The Morning” sticks, but the syrupy hook waters things down a bit. The questionable “Breakfast In Bed” (feat. Ray J) is a made for daytime radio jam, relying on terribly derivative formulas that have been abused over and over again over the last thirty years. Meanwhile, we’re stuck with a couple of snoozers like “My Name” and “Handcuffs” to round out the rest of the record.

While not perfect on Get Big, Dorrough remains a bit of a local hero right now. But with such a distinct, enunciating voice inside him, chances are he will have a long future ahead of him that finds him rising above his extra large Texas backyard.

Our favorite guilty pleasure drops another joint from Get Big, which is in stores next week.

Publicity stunt or no? Dorrough recently released a statement suggesting that his cel-phone was stolen, a cel phone which - by no coincidence – includes footage of….. a Dorrough sex tape! Strangely, the footage has not surfaced, but Dorrough released a statement letting the world know that “there are reports” that it is indeed out there, and if it fell into the wrong hands, it could end up on the innanet.

“There have been reports circulating about a ’sex tape’ involving myself, and I want to set the record straight,” he tells The Dallas Observer. “Unfortunately, the footage does exist, and some of the footage was on my cell phone, which I’ve recently lost. I am only concerned with making sure my family and people close to me aren’t hurt by this, and I want to focus on making music for my fans.”

Strange, that someone would want to steal Dorrough’s cel phone, a cel phone which includes video of him havin’ sex. Only an enemy of Dorrough would want to release that footage into the wild, two weeks before the release of his new album Get Big (heh) on E1 Music. Think of the damage it would do, and how similar feats have ruined the careers of Kim Kardashian, Pamela Anderson, and Heidi Montag. Virtually no media outlet will cover them anymore!

Right? Nah… We’re thinking Dorrough’s got some video of him performing an Ice Cream Paint Job on some unlucky groupie that he’s really proud of, and wants the world to see, just in time for the release of his album, Get Big, in stores September 7th on E1 Music.

Now that he has gained his released from Jive Records, Huey will return with his true sophomore LP, Redemption, on September 14th 2010 (EMI/Que Records).

Dorrough’s been reliable for a handful of hot hood-hop club joints for the last year or so, ever since “Ice Cream Paint Job”. His latest, “Get Big” is produced by Nitti (Yung Joc “It’s Goin’ Down”) and has been in rotation from this deejay for the past few months. This video will probably allow it to “get big” for real….

New track from Dorrough with production from Nitti. It’s not “Ice Cream Paint Job,” but it will do. This track comes courtesy of Dorrough’s twitter.
