Flavor Flav Takes A Break From Reality TV, Preps Debut Solo Set

After releasing several classic albums as a member of Public Enemy, Flavor Flav is readying the release of his first solo album, Flavor Flav! on his own Draytown Records.
The legendary hype man planned on releasing solo albums several times, but the projects never dropped. Now Flav, who plays many instruments, is readying to drop a full-length solo LP. "Flavor Man" will serve as the first single. But don't expect Flav to start putting albums out.
"I got some things off my chest, but not all," Flav said in a statement. "I doubt I will ever do another one, though. What I'm gonna do is make this one a collector's item. My first and only solo album, ever." In addition to rapping and producing, heads can expect to hear Flav sing an R&B record on the album. He will also hit the road for a mini U.S. tour and is also working on a new record with Public Enemy.
Flav is presently starring in the second season of his VH1 Reality TV series, "Flavor of Love." He previously starred alongside actress Bridget Nielsen in "Strange Love" after guesting on the third season of "The Surreal Life.
Flavor Flav's self-titled solo debut is scheduled to hit stores on October 31st.
