B.o.B harnesses the power of his mind on the cover of his sophomore album Strange Clouds, due May 1. The follow-up to his 2010 debut B.o.B Presents: The Adventures of Bobby Ray features the Lil Wayne-assisted “Strange Clouds,” “Play the Guitar” with André 3000, the Ryan Tedder-produced “So Good,” and a not-so-secret collaboration with Taylor Swift, along with production from Dr. Luke, Jim Jonsin, Polow Da Don, T.I., and Bobby Ray himself.

“When I made this album, I wanted to make sure that I was a part of everything that was made, even from the time a demo was recorded to the time it’s mixed,”

the Grand Hustle rapper told Rap-Up.

“I really wanted to be hands-on with the project. You really got to treat it like a child. You gotta nurture it and give it the right amount of attention.”
