LMFAO’s Redfoo is still party rocking, but these days, he’s doing it without his partner-in-fun, Sky Blu.

Redfoo says he and his former partner — who is also his nephew — are taking a break as they focus on their own interests, personally and professionally.

“I feel like we’ve been doing this for so long, five or six years. And we’re kind of like saying, well, let’s just do what’s natural and just kind of explore that, instead of like forcing it all the time,” Redfoo, 37, explained in an interview with the Associated Press.

For the wild-haired frontman, his explorations have not only taken him to record new music solo, they have also opened up a world in sports.

Redfoo was in the stands at the U.S. Open rooting on new BFF Victoria Azarenka, who came in second to Serena Williams for the women’s championship. He’s also been performing on some dates with the Fierce Five of women’s gymnastics as the gold-winning Olympic team tours the nation. He’s also trying to make a tune for the New England Patriots.

But it will likely be some time before Redfoo writes anything for LMFAO. As for his solo material, Redfoo won’t be straying far from hits like Sexy and I Know It, I’m in Miami Trick and Party Rock Anthem.

“All the music that I’m going to make is always going to be LMFAO-ish. . . . I love all the topics that we talk about,” he said. “I was really passionate about bringing party music to the world, so I will always be making some kind of party music.”
