I love Kast but they get points taken off for that Love Below bullshyt and Idlewild. Stankonia was a pretty good album but had too many weird moments

Stankonia was the last good OutKast album and even that album really didn't compare to their previous albums

Though, the mixing and mastering on Stankonia is some of the best mixing.

But yeah, Speakerboxxx and Love Below were not even as good as Stankonia.


Idewild was a huge letdown because the movie was suppose to be their Purple Rain movie and the soundtrack wasn't up to OutKast's standards

They literally check off every box :yeshrug:, Ik this forum is regional asf but I don't think GOAT group is even close :yeshrug:


I agree you they are the goat rap group. Classics upon classics. Innovators, lyrics, live production.

O-U-T Kast all day long for me.

Then NWA.

Even the sun goes down heroes eventually Die
Horoscopes often Lie and sometimes Why
Nothing is for sure nothing is for Certain
Nothin lasts foreverB
but until they close the curtain
It's Him and I AqueMini

....if Big Boi & Andre can just give US one more album for closure:snoop::wow::ohlawd:




My name is Big Boi, Daddy Fat Sacks
Dat nikka dat like them Cadillacs
I stay down in them streets, cuz dem streets is what my folks at
Betta know dat, some say we pro black, but we professional
Done missed a lot of church, so this music is like a confessional

:wow:

The problem is Outkast never made anything on par with Infamous and Hell on Earth.
So it really comes down to how you want to evaluate all the different factors to look at.


Bruh I love Mobb Deep. fukk with em heavy..but every Kast album> Hell on Earth

:whoa:

Midnight Marauders has that album beat imo. Phife has caught up to Tip and the results were magical
:ohlawd:
The production on that album is flawless. Still can’t believe it only got 4 mics in the Source

I got The Infamous over it by a fairly large margin though.

The fact that the Love Below and Idlewild were the last times we got to hear full albums with Andre is one of hip hops greatest tragedies

And the fact that Andre wasn't even rapping on The Love Below hurts even more :mjcry:

He rapped some on Idlewild but it wasn't the same as the previous albums. :francis:

I didn’t want to have to do this but...
Prodigy walked off the stage in Las Vegas and succumbed to Sickle Cell days later. So you could say he died rapping giving his fans exactly what they wanted.
Dropped a really dope album in January of 2017. Still going strong rapping.

meanwhile Andre 3000 has been playing the flute in airport terminals for the past ten years

He made that album simply becuz he could. Can’t nobody listen to their previous albums and then tell me that the Love Below was just artistic growth
:heh:
Nah that was Andre musically jerking off in the studio
