Big Boi‘s latest in a series of new mash-up tracks he has been releasing the past few weeks is “Part Time Hater,” which takes the Kid Cudi-assisted “She Hates Me” and layers it over Stevie Wonder‘s classic “Part-Time Lover.” The speedier tempo adds some bounce to the dreamy Vicious Lies and Dangerous Rumors single, culminating in a funky track and another solid mash-up offering from Big Boi. Check it out below.
