Stankonia

A classic Southern Hip Hop album. There are so many good tracks!

I don't think I've ever listened to this album straight through ever, despite knowing I really really should have. An absolute masterpiece of hip hop. So many great features, and incredible production. Could do with less interludes, but that was how rap albums of the era were so I can live with it. Stand out tracks: So Fresh, So Clean, Ms. Jackson, BOB, Xplosion, Red Velvet

Classic, but still a step below Aquemini / ATLiens. Could do with some trimming (Call Before I Come, all the skits) but there's loads of OutKast's best work on here.

I’ve always heard this album described as a masterpiece, and I’m not sure I can disagree. I knew a bunch of songs already, of course, but the ones I didn’t know are also really also blew me away.

Yes, I am bouncing. Thank you. This is probably my most listened to album since I first heard it in middle school. And that includes like, every album I’ve ever listened to. It was absolutely my introduction to hip hop. You have something really special on your hands when you’re able to use it as an entry point to a genre of music, while still having it be the GOAT in that genre. I had an old family friend who’s kid went to the same school as Andre 3000’s. She used to talk about how he would wait in the car pick up line with the other parents for school to end. He drove a Mitsubishi. They chatted about their kids a few times. I always liked the idea of Andre just being a normal dad, waiting for his kid in a modest car. Anyway, want to get more into hip hop but aren’t sure where to start? Here’s your Abbey Road.

I want to shout out OutKast’s three 5-star records preceding Stankonia (Southernplayalisticcadillacmuzick, ATLiens, and Aquemini—all of which SHOULD be on this list) and extend a heartfelt “Stank You” to one of my all-time favorite musical acts for this forever, ever masterwork.

An old classic, not sure it’s my favourite OutKast album but deserves the 5

Really good. Didn’t realize a lot of the songs I’m familiar with came from here

Mind-blowing production and a pioneering style, the two most famous tracks following each other is a treat too.

Tracks of Note: -Gasoline Dreams -Ms Jackson -Stankonia -So Fresh So Clean -I’ll Call B4 I Cum -We Luv Deez Hoes -Slum Beautiful

Vibrant collection of sounds. Each beat has so much character and layers on layers so that even the most laid back tracks have a million little things to catch hidden in the mix. The beats sound like they were thrifted how each fit is completely original. Choruses are so memorable and just like the beats, very versatile. Lots of sexy soul, lots of aggressive rap. All perfectly matched with the themes of the song. These guys have a knack for creating a concept for a song and sticking to it in every aspect. Insanely fun and full of character. This album is wild

A classic from one of my favorite artists that only trails off a bit at the end of a 75 minute run.

YES

"Stankonia" is the fourth studio by American hip hop duo OutKast. Outkast is André 3000 (André Benjamin) and Big Boi (Antwan Patton). The music is expansive incorporating funk, rave music, pyschedelia, gospel and rock into hip hop. The subject matters include sexuality, politics, misogyny and African American culture. The album was produced by Earthtone III (Outkast and Mr. DJ) and Organized Noise. Commercially, the album debuted at #1 in the US and critically had universal acclaim. "Intro" kicks off the album with a guy talking about going to Stankonia where all good things come from. Random city noise samples. This transitions into "Gasoline Dreams." Heavy guitar in the forefront and background. A slower beat. He's assailing the "bling" aspirations of the contemporary black culture. The third single "So Fresh, So Clean" is softer and dreamy. This sounds like it's right out the early 90' west coast hip hop (Dre and Snoop). The background synth give "Ms. Jackson" a chill vibe. This song was dedicated to the Mother of a Mother of a child born out of wedlock. A music box begins "B.O.B." It then kicks in hard with guitar, organs and a beat. This is intense and it keeps speeding up. There's female gospel backing vocals. "B.O.B." is Bombs over Baghdad and about music industry people going halfway. "Humble Humble" has layered rapping including Erykah Badu. Scratching...the drums kick in..it's speeds up and is funky. "Toliet Tisha" continues the varied second half of this album. Spacey guitars...a funky bass..synth lasers and a synth loop. Very R&B and funk. The album closes with "Stankonia (Stanklove)." Soulful. Gospel. A pyschedelic guitar. An appropriate ending. There is a lot of positive things going on with album. It's laid back at times. It's also very busy at times. The interludes between songs add character and comedy. This album has a certain flow to it. Some of these songs, I would put in the R&B/pop or pyschedelic genres and not hip hop. The one thing is that it sounds both fresh and futuristic even today. It is long and a lot to get through but a high recommendation.

A classic. So many great hits that capture a moment in time but are also timeless. It’s relevant, intelligent and whimsical. Defined who OutKast was and who they will always be.

Iconic and classic. Atlanta hip hop at its best.

Absolute masterpiece.

Ms Jackson herself is worth 5 stars.

De GOATS, zag liever atliens of aquemini in de lijst, maar so be it! Andre 3000 is top 3 rappers voor mij. Easy 5

Heard before: yes Forever, ever? Like a seafood boil, this record is a bunch of delicious food just tossed on the table, all mixed up with each other, flavors everywhere. It’s internally contradictory, endlessly fascinating, and FUN FUN FUN! Even the skits are good! It’s just so easy and unforced - the rapping is all over the place: some is rapid fire, some is minimal, some funky, some melodic, some nonsense, some progressive, even some thoughtless machismo. Often all in the same song; it’s all out there bouncing off each other. Similarly, the music is a summary everything we knew about groove in 2000; a pupu platter of funk. I’m pretty happy I referred to both food and poopoo in this review. I think my work here is done. Top tracks: B.O.B. (Bombs Over Baghdad), So Fresh So Clean, Gasoline Dreams

goat! Favorite: ALL OF IT! 5

This is definitely in the conversation for top 10 hip hop albums of all time.

This might be OutKast’s best album. These guys put southern rap on the map, or at least introduced it to millions on the coasts which have traditionally held a monopoly on hip hop. This album is dense with musical references spanning classic R&B and funk to modern electronic sounds. What I always love about OutKast is that they are absolutely unafraid of being unconventional. The result here is a sprawling album that confronts social issues and creates a new world based on black excellence. Truly visionary, and an absolute pleasure to listen to.

I really wish that Outkast made more music. I’ve yet to hear anything bad by them. Around the age of 16, I came across the Ms Jackson music video and loved it (shout out to the owl). After that I listened to this album a fair bit. Songs I already knew: all (to a degree) Favourites: Ms Jackson, So Fresh So Clean, Humble Mumble If anything, I think I enjoyed this album more today than I did when I was younger. André 3000 has such a unique inflection with his rapping that makes him instantly recognisable, and Big Boi’s deeper tones contrast perfectly. Perhaps nostalgia can be blamed, or otherwise it is a testimony to the lyrics, but I even enjoys the more sex-related songs that would otherwise make me cringe.

There's something for everyone here. Radio friendly poppy hooks interspersed with traditional hip hop bravado and social commentary. Great top to bottom.

Just about as 5 as a 5 can get. Bursting with creativity. The ONLY record over an hour long so far in this project that earns its length and doesn't feel exhausting.

Ms. Jackson truly timeless song. 4,5/5

I like this album a bit better than the one from yesterday, it’s got some catchy songs. I’ll definitely be revisiting this album. 5/5

It's banger after banger. Production, bars and flows so tight throughout. Feels big but intimate, full of charm, plenty of range and depth in the tracks to prevent the long runtime from dragging. Even today this still sound fresh and weird and experimental. Fav Track: Snappin and Trappin 4.5/5

Even while nitpicking it’s hard to find too many faults in this record. Brilliant flow, production, and chemistry. Huge achievement and just shows how these two are just the best of the best. Four and a half. Fave track: B.O.B.

🐐🐐

I remember 12 year old me seeing the ms Jackson video on MTV and then going to Woolworths to buy this album. Re listening 20 years on this feels like a true hip hop masterpiece.

It seems like Outkast fans fall into two categories: those who think *Aquemini* is their magnum opus, and those who would rather vote for *Stankonia*. The first was surely the most groundbreaking one, but the famous hits are on the second. With stellar tracks such as "So Fresh, So Clean", " Ms.Jackson" and "Bombs Over Baghdad", the album is worth your time, aven with lengthier deep cuts and interludes (a flaw many rap albums--including masterpieces--shared at the time). And if "Hey Ya" had been on that record, instead of the weird double-solo album that saw the duet officially part ways later on, you can bet your boots that *Stankonia* would have been the magnum opus. Well, why choose? I think there's enough room in my own list for *both* LPs... Number of albums left to review: 498 Number of albums from the list I find relevant enough to be mandatory listens: 238 (including this one) Albums from the list I *might* include in mine later on: 114 Albums from the list I will certainly *not* include in mine (many others are more essential to me): 147

I think I might have listened to Bombs Over Baghdad 10,000 times in my life. An all time classic album.

I love outkast and ive only heard some songs never a whole album and i was soooo happy when i got this and it lived up and exceeded what i thought it would be every song is different, unique and feels like im a frog at a nightclub in the sky shilling out on clouds. So many classics and underappreciated songs on this album

Really good !

Amazing!

This album still feels fresh more than 20 years later. It leverages the sonic palette of the 60s, 70s, 80s and 90s, while setting the tone for the rest of the 00s. Some problematic lyrics (looking at you “So Fresh and So Clean”). But no album I’ve heard so seamlessly blends earnest philosophical musings (“Humble Mumble”) with an epicurean embrace of sexuality (“Stankonia”).

one of the best rap albums of all time, and the reason rappers cite andre as the best to ever do it. always technically perfect, really thought-provoking lyrics (and some hits), but the real standout here is the melodies — nobody had done it before, and it took until kid cudi before anyone would do it again. any album that predicts music a decade in the future while also staying listenable deserves a 5.

Hell yeah

HL: "B.O.B.", "Ms. Jackson", "Gangsta Sh*t", "So Fresh, So Clean", "Toilet Tisha" I'm not here to argue that S/TLB is a better album (I gave that 5 stars). Maybe the biggest drawback to the album-a-day thing is that some albums deserve time to digest, and my opinions on several tracks/interludes on Stankonia aren't fully formed because I was still reeling from the song before it. Probably was the most tuned in during the first 5 songs & the last 5 songs. Definitely worth a relisten in the near future. "B.O.B." continues to be my favourite Outkast song, bar none (not that I've listened to the other four albums yet) June 11, 2023

If I gave Speakerboxxx/The Love Below a 5/5 this is a 6/5. It's off the charts how good the album is. The singles "B.O.B." and "Ms. Jackson" is still played frequently in my house.

LOVE this album. So many bangers. It was a massive part of my youth too. These two crazies who rap really fast. They’re funky and sorta futuristic. Funny too. Yep, just a massive yep.

Dope

One of my favorite albums, ever!

This album is just nonstop grooves, which can make it surprising when you dive into the serious lyrical content on some of the tracks. There’s a lot in here. Ms. Jackson might be one of the stickiest, catchiest choruses ever. Looking back, Ms. Jackson was just a sign of the massive hits to come on OutKast’s next album. Favorite tracks: B.OB.; Ms, Jackson; Red Velvet; So Fresh So Clean; Stankonia; Toilet Tisha. 5/5.

Outkast est vraiment un outsiders dans mes gout de rap. Car je n'ai jamais prit le temps d'écouter leurs albums. C'était vraimentun erreur de ma part. C'est génial. J'espère en avoirun autre dans cette liste mais je crois qu eje vais devoir faire mes devoirs par moi-meme. 5

BRO HWO COULD I MISS STANKONIA WHAT WHAT WHATTTTTT IM SO SORRY OUTKAST I LOVE YOU 6 STARS

Rating: 10/10

This is a fantastic album that absolutely deserves its place on this list. Rich, dynamic, and just seriously fun! I would put it below Miseducation of Lauryn Hill on my favorite hip hop albums of all time list, but just below. This was so innovative and the singles haven't gotten tired! Just good stuff.

Stankonia is, without question, Outkast at the absolute peak of their powers. Rather than come down from the mountainous high of the stupendously spectacular and envelope pushing Aquemini, Daddy Fat Sacks and 3 Stacks decided that it was for the best if they reached the Moon, Saturn, Mars, Venus and everywhere in between. Draping the black and white flag that was raised and fluttered in every corner that they approached, Outkast not only dismantled the boundaries that constricted hip-hop (if they hadn't already) but extended their outreach ever farther in unexplored and tantalizing areas (if that hadn't happened already). As a result, we were treated to one of the greatest albums in hip-hop, one of the greatest albums of the 21st Century and one of the greatest albums period. Some may wince at its bloated appearance and its breakneck pace and they may do without two or three songs and skits but that's just part of the charm. Gotta take it as it comes. I was happy when I did. Stank you, Outkast, stank you smelly much.

Easy 5 stars. The definition of 90s hip hop albums. The skits! . Still awesome, but im enjoying this more now I'm older. The slow jams connected with me more, and the messages in the songs were coming through strong. Awesome album.

So fresh. So clean.

очень даже ничего приятненькоо и расслабленно

Twas good

Classic

Hits every criteria of a 5 - Likely influential - At least one notable musician - I liked it - I saved a song - Cohesive Loved Gasoline Dreams and the hits (BOB, Ms. Jackson, So Fresh So Clean ect)

What a great rap album. A classic. So many good hits, but also so many deep cuts. On heavy rotation at my parties.

Synd att jag inte är så förtjust i hippetihopp, men jag fattar ju att det här är bra. Förmodligen riktigt bra.

Well. This is gold and timeless. While OutKast are critically lauded and also popular, I feel they do not receive the same kind of acclaim some of their peers get (I guess in a way they live up to their name heh). Yet here they are with this masterpiece of a record that is consistently fun and pop, while being true to their hip hop roots. I don't think I can say more than other, more articulate reviewers have, but this is a top record.

What an overwhelming album. A wild fusion of hip-hop and funk that sounds like nothing else. And it’s a big album too. The chorus of “Gasoline Dreams” is incredible - such a hard beat, such a catchy hook. “So Fresh, So Clean” and “Ms. Jackson” are fantastic - insanely catchy songs that have reached a higher level in the culture (and still sound great after 1000 listens). Jeez, “B.O.B.” moves at such a breakneck speed. The music morphs and changes throughout while André 3000 and Big Boi spit rapid-fire. And those are just the major tracks. There’s a ton of inventive music here from hard-hitting rap to more playful and goofy songs. A weird, eccentric, awesome album.

Yes!! This is basically the record that got me into hip-hop so I have a lot of love for it. Sure, there a couple of misses and the skits aren't always great, but there are so many incredible high points on this album to make up for it. Kicking off with so much energy with Gasoline Dreams and then the cooler-than-a-polar-bear's-toenails So Fresh So Clean; Ms. Jackson and B.O.B are two of the best hip-hop singles of all time; Humble Mumble has one of the best beat switches of all time; ?, Red Velvet and the closer are all incredible yet overlooked tracks. Just an absolutely fire record

A modern mainstream masterpiece.

Yes

Wowza this things is nuts. Everything about this album is so creative and funky and wonky but it just works so well. The beats Go. So. Goddamn. Hard. It feels like you’re in a hip hop carnival there’s just so many crazy things going on. Andre and Big Boi are incredible lyricists and rappers. I think I could listen to Andre rap about anything all day. I’m absolutely blown away by this album. 10/10

Monólogos da Intro. So Fresh, So Clean tem coisas boas. Ms Jackson é famosa. I'll Call B4 I Cum tem uns samples interessantes. Bombs Over Bagdad tem uma frase final interessante. Começo Xplosion! We Lu Deez Hoez é excelente e tem um wahwahwah ótimo.

Classic. All time

Absolutely loved.

Wow I forgot what a great album this was

I've listened to this album a bunch of times, I think this is the weakest of outkasts albums, but even then this album is still a solid fucking 9 which means it gets the ole 5/5 score.

A really innovative album that still sounds fresh. A bridge between 90s gansta rap and current rap.

mega geil. hallo? dachte ich mag das nicht hab erstmal genervt aufgestöhnt aber hey....der spaß ist scheiße geil. würde ich noch öfter hören honestly.

cool

Ég keypti (óvart) censoraða útgáfu af þessari plötu í Prag 2001. Mjög fyndði að heyra alvöru útgáfurnar af öllum lögunum. Ekki það að hún er jafn mikið dúndur með og án allra ljótu orðanna. Fullt hús.

Ushered in a new age of hip hop

The place where all funny things come from

Очень хорошая музыка, на удивление спокойная (как я люблю)

They really have something unique and special. Not as good as Speakerboxx/The Live Below but close and still top notch.

This is my favorite OutKast album. I listened to this so much back in the day that it almost sounds like a greatest hits compilation to me now. Especially those first 3 songs! It's like a three punch combo ending on an uppercut. Though I love the bursting-at-the-seams creativity of Speakerboxxx/The Love Below, this album is the absolute peak of Big Boi and Andre 3000 working together fluidly. Two things I love about OutKast: 1) their uncanny ability to cover such an incredibly wide range of emotions/subjects (and somehow blend it all together in a way that feels natural and smooth), and 2) their fearlessness in simply being themselves. Perhaps it is being outside of the East Coast/West Coast scenes that allowed them/forced them to sort of go all out in terms of forging their own unique identity? Whatever the reason, I am thankful they put it out there.

This was a compelling listen! Lots of layers that reveal themselves on multiple listens on this funky outing. The range is really remarkable. Andre 3000 is such a distinctive performer in top form here. The production is on-point throughout. I've only ever really heard the singles before, but I can see why this is an enduring favourite for many. Rating: 4.5/5 Fave tracks: Ms. Jackson, B.O.B., Humble Mumble, Cruisin' in the ATL

Бомбы сами знает над чем.

Always amazing listem this álbum

Wow. Two classics two days in a row. This is easily five years ahead of any other hip hop album in 2000. The messed up productions with reversed snares and all manner of odd going on. Andre and Big Boi both delivering classic bars on every track. The fact it killed East and West dealer than the bullets that hit Tupac and Biggie, because the only correct answer was South. Take Gasoline Dreams, BOB, Miss Jackson and So Fresh So Clean. Each is so different to the last and each is a great song. It's got a Killer Mike feature a decade before the world caught up with him!

4 Saf7at Men 3l Bouheli Mte3 Dostoevsky. Still Sick

It’s very obvious to me when I peaked based on the current music I owned at the time.

An absolute classic.

Outkast RULES

Snappin and trappin is a hard skip But the rest of the album slaps so i round up to 5 stars

4.5/5. Very impressive album, very unique, great shit

Ja kan ik niet anders dan certified classic noemen, geweldige bangers die nog lang gaan meegaan...maar zit ook wel wat filler in en had gerust een halfuur korter mogen zijn

I do, of course, love Ms. Jackson and the other hits from OutKast, but I never listened to the full album! This was excellent listening.

Easy five. Never realised how much influence Childish Gambino takes from this, especially on Awaken My Love. Cee Lo has popped up as a feature on heaaapps of the hip hop albums on here, man was prolific. Killer Mike on Strappin & Trappin takes the feature crown on this one though. Humble Mumble is a huge track as well. Impossible not to mention Ms Jackson, up there with the greatest songs of all time.

Snappy and melodious tracks namely in 'So Fresh, So Clean' and 'Ms. Jackson', 'Stankonia' is an obvious favorite with important contributions to hip-hop. Unapologetically OutKast, this album shines through its thoughtful beats, which in tandem with soulful rap, renders it one of the best OutKast albums. Fun, memorable, and clever; OutKast remains a treasured hip-hop sensation.

Outkast at their best, full of classic songs and really fun sounds.

Cool hip hop album

So fresh

YESSSSS! Oh how I miss these hip hop albums which are pure story telling with the crazy interludes. This was teenage Grace's absolute JAM, thank God for friends from Cov in school always bringing the edge and the grit into my middle class privileged life! This is a prime example of a classic hip hop album of the early noughties and I love it so much! Exciting innovative sounds, catchy hooks, lightning raps, bouncy beats, hard-hitting lyrics, important topics, it's got everything for me. When you listen, you can tell exactly what era it's from (although I was listening to this well after it came out as I was 8 at that point haha, the album is timeless!) I wouldn't change the album and it definitely belongs on this list!

Classic album. I’d do 4.5 if I could just bc it’s not perfect. Hard to do better than OutKast

My favourite album ever. I even enjoy the skits on it. So creative that a lot of it doesnt sound dated yet. So many good percussion led songs. Love it from start to finish

Literally broke ground for southern hip hop. Bops for days, for weeks, for years.

The best hip-hop music to come out of Atlanta. Beats, Boasts, and Bars.

Not sure what I need to say here, but all of the songs on this album are hiphop anthems. Outkast deserve their status as GOATs of hiphop and this album is one of their best works.

It makes sense they had to virtually split up after this, they had become too powerful

Wow

This is a great album! BOB is one of my all time favorite rap songs. Not a fan of the Interlude tracks.

Few, if any, do it like Outkast.

This album starts out on an absolute tear, with Snappin & Trappin being the first song that I don't think of as an absolute classic. Honestly, though, every song on this album is good. For the most part, you could drop this album today and it would be just as impactful as it was when it was release. It's aged much better than most early 00s hip-hop 5/5

Classic. 10/10. We all know this.

Of course I already listened to this one, but I am not (grieving) to listen to it again. What a crazy album, it deserves a 5 based on B.O.B alone, but personally I'm hovering a 4.2 to 4.6 rating. Such a creative album though, I'll give it a 5 because I want it to be recognized as one of the greats.

second outkast album for me (but this one's older), i liked the other one well enough but it was way too long. really liking this first song 'gasoline dreams'. okay this album's going to be a 5 lol. it's amazing so far. snappin & trappin sounding a bit disjointed, but i kinda like it anyway. killer mike was awesome i love you killer mike. okay i'm done, fave songs: gasoline dreams, so fresh so clean, B.O.B. great album, i'm giving it a second listen rn, snappin & trappin just clicked for me so that's cool.

Killer Mike!

Top notch

I had forgotten how much I love Stankonia. It’s amazing how frantic and up beat it is, but at the same time functions as chill background music.

Stone cold classic. Amazing beats, poignant varied lyrics, absolute bops.

Fucking classic

Bangers all around, clearly a very influential album. Heavy at times, but even at those times, really fun to listen to. Capturing some real humanity with sick beats, varied sound, rooted in funk, soul, hip hop, electronic.

Brilliant album

Love the group they good

Absolute classic album. Remember buying this on CD at Uni and it not sounding like the sort of hip hop I was used to. So many good tracks on here.

Sick album. Awesome beats, lyrics, production, legacy, influence. Ticks all the boxes. 9/10

Such a great album. Not my favourite OutKast album but still hard to find real fault.

Its hard for this to come right after MBDTF because this is better so should probably get above a 5 somehow but thats not how this works

Hip-hop de qualidade, lindo lindooo

Banger

Perfection

Dang this album is so good!!!

Great craic.

An all time classic

Love this album!!!

I love Outkast

Legends

Yes.

So sick

One of my favourite albums. Not keen on the skits and a lot of it is incomprehensible to me but ...

Misstänker att jag inte får många chanser att sätta 5or så jag bjuder på denna. Bra album bra pågar.

ooh!

Rides the line between fun and serious very well. 4.5/5

Hey mamas🙂‍↕️#MascPotential

I do like this band, I swear, but like Speakerboxx, so much chaff. A handful of all time bangers and just a heap of silliness in between. B.O.B. tho

Not my genre (just gave Jay-Z 1/5), but quite a banger nevertheless.

Muy bueno, diferente a lo que se acostumbraba en el hiphop más que nada por el tipo de sonidos complejos y más experimentales Pero es también el concepto, siempre hay una dualidad interesante entre André y Big Boi, no son para nada iguales y eso es lo que hace que el resultado sea lo que es Muchos hits, otros que en teoría son de paso, pero que igual tienen muchísimo peso e influencia So Fresh, So Clean, Ms Jackson, B.O.B y una que tienen con Badu, son mis favoritas Se deja reescuchar y recomendar

BREAK Some of their best songs on this album. A few I’m just ok on. But I still love OutKast!

Easily this best, great album

Like this rap

Igjen, bare noen yderst få låter som ikke er like sterk gjør at det ikke blir full pott.

Wow! Very good album. Maybe a bit long, but way cool.

Huge groovy hits in this album that blends rap, funk and pop. It's the kind of album that make rap listenable by my parents with all Favorite Songs: So Fresh, So Clean ; Ms. Jackson ; B.O.B. ; We Luv Deez Hoez ; Humble Mumble

Fantastic album that showcases the unique minds and talents of OutKast.

Classic

Great album.

8.5 out of 10 overall top 3 songs after 2 listens: 1.bob (bombs over Baghdad) 2.humble mumble 3.explosion special mention to hey ya! ofc

No me lo esperaba (la única canción que conocía era "Hey Ya!") y me ha sorprendido para bien. Pensaba que iba a ser otro álbum de hip hop cualquiera, pero me ha gustado mucho. Vibras de Hamilton, no me extrañaría que fuera una influencia.

super cool. bit long

I wish I would have discovered this long ago. Quite good so far.

So Fresh, So Clean 🌟, Ms Jackson 🌟

Fantastic hip hop album. A bit of a slog with the interludes/skits however, but the music definitely hits.

4.0/5

Альбом для критків. Дуже багато експериментів. Андре вирішив, що він реінкарнація Хендрікса, кислотний вайб. З перший чотирьох видатних альбомів гурту цей мені подобається менше за всіх. Хоч і в ньому є дуже класні пісні, золоті хіти (So Fresh So Clean - топ) на ньому багато дивного. 4.5. з нахилом до 4.

I don’t deny the cultural influence of this record. I just can’t get into much hip hop. This was enjoyed by many though. Definitely a touching off point for the genre

This was fresh and I assume super impactful. Not my fav but I give credit.

some bangers

So fresh… so clean… sorry ms Jackson - OutKast is for real. 4.3

This has some of everything. Useful advice/promises (“I’ll Call B4 I Cum”), beats that are impossible to ignore, even if I got nothing but the chorus (“B.O.B. Bombs Over Baghdad”). I went into it dreading the 75 minute run time — it did overstay its welcome a bit, but way less than I expected. 7/10 Quite Likeable

Too many interludes but this was the thing at the time.

Great album - lots of different styles. So Fresh So Clean and Ms Jackson are truly amazing.

andré 3000 é qualquer coisa 😮‍💨😮‍💨 break!

8/10

Another banger! Inventive and interesting throughout, with lyrics that burrow into your brain. Favourite track: Gasoline Dreams

Really good album with impressive flow and beats. Ms. Jackson always hits just right, but I feel like the album is too long in general.

Outkast have some of the most fun rap ever. They’re just doing silly stuff while also somehow some of the best rappers ever

Album très fun avec beaucoup de hits. Je crois que je suis pas le plus grand fan de Big Boi L’album est très long mais jamais ennuyeux 8,5/10

Carrying the funk forward! A little long though. .

muita pedrada aqui mas é o que eu esperava do álbum de ms jackson. quando eu era menorzinha eu era OBCECADA com uma música deles (hey ya) e ter ouvido algo por inteiro me fez perceber que é esse o hiphop que gosto de ouvir mesmo..

Five-star album up through B.O.B. Really could’ve done without entire back half but can’t go below four for anything this good for 45 minutes

break!

Un disco fuerte, con beats buenísimos que nunca pierde el ritmo y lleno de carisma. Marca de un sonido futurista para la epoca y lleno de puntos positivos. 4/5

Love this album but I still wish Aquemini made this list.

In the words of the legendary 3 stacks, “The south got something to say.” They snapped on this album

Great album. Better production.

Jeg var sent på ballen her. Er ikke engang et år siden jeg ga denne en spinn for første gang. Det er flere elementer som taler imot Stankonia. Et CD-lengde hip hop album med masse skits? Hits som får dem til å virke mer som en pop-duo med rap innflytelser enn en innflytelsesrik hip hop-duo? Check and check. Men da jeg først ga det et lytt, ble jeg langsomt solgt. Det er ujevnt. Mellom dette og Aquemini (det er så langt jeg har kommet i discographien deres i skrivende stund), er Aquemini vesentlig jevnere (og i enda en uforståelig avgjørelse av redaksjonen, ikke på denne lista). Men det er noen highs her som er helt og holdent på høyde med det beste fra forrige skiva. Og som en ujevn og lang hip hop skive full av skits, synes jeg på en måte de får det til å funke. Det går på bekostning av lytteopplevelsen (finnes ingen vei rundt det), men om man lytter til det som om det var et mer lineært medium som en film eller roman, funker det nesten. Skulle gjerne se ambisjonen bli skrudd ned et par hakk slik at det kunne være 40-50 minutter med knallsterke spor, da. Det er en experimenterende lekenhet i OutKast som lever side-om-side med popstjerne-ambisjoner og spitfire rappeevner. B.O.B. er kanskje det mest åpenbare exempelet, men sporene der jeg falt for OutKast generelt (og Andre 3000 spesifikt), er So Fresh, So Clean, Humble Mumble, Red Velvet, og Gangsta Shit. Veldig distinkt måte å rappe på og garantert et av de største idolene til Danny Brown (han siterer også B.O.B. på Atrocity Exhibition). Og noen veldig memorable linjer. Må trekke ut "you're so Anne Frank / Let's hit the attic to hide out for 'bout two weeks" fra post-dusj-låta So Fresh, So Clean. Og hele verset hans i Gangsta Shit, som for øvrig må være et av få exempler på deconstructed gangsta rap...?

Hørt hitsa såklart, og så dem live på Roskilde 2014, men ellers l8 to the party.

I’ve gone strong 4 , Aquemini for me is a 5. Both very good

André 3000 and Big Boi are amazing rappers in their own right, but they clearly unlocked something within each other that took them to another level. The vast majority of pop rap records would sound pretty rough once they passed the hour mark but Stankonia’s quality more than commands the 73 minute run-time. Any songs that aren’t straight up hits still have a great interplay between the duo who are experienced enough to perfect their craft, but not so experienced that they’ve fallen out. Stankonia is particularly impressive once you consider what pop rap sounded like in the 1990s. This sounds closer to the hip hop of the 2020s than much of the hip hop of the 1990s. It represents a gigantic step forward.

Good

Very creative album, first listen so worth going back to.

If you stank it, you can be it... This was a key album for me in high school and the major tracks ("So Fresh, So Clean", "Ms. Jackson", "B.O.B.") are still timeless winners. I'm also partial to "Gasoline Dreams" and "Stankonia (Stanklove)" but could do without all the obligatory late-90s rap skits that clutter the songs (I'm so glad everyone stopped with that shit...). There's definitely points outside the skits where it gets to feel a little *too much* but it's still overall a solid listen 26 years later. (4/5)

J'me rappelle encore de voir le vidéoclip de B.O.B. pour la première fois, profondément ébranlé dans ma conviction de ne pas aimer le hip hop. BREAK!

(Decent 8/10) The rapping, the production, the SONGS. This thing has some of the best songs Outkast ever made, the album is a ton of fun most of the way through. I think after "Humble Mumble" it kind of loses steam, but damn this album is great. "B.O.B." and "Ms. Jackson" are two of the greatest rap songs ever imo, def a must listen.

8- / 10

A vibe

I didn't expect this album to be so good... I'm in love with the melodies and the sounds there and the features there... they're so unique (:

The second song was pretty alr

Pretty good, better than channel Orange. I haven't listened to a lot of Outkast so this was a good opportunity. I prefer the deeper vocalist (I think Big Boi?) to the twangier rapping (Andre 3000?). It's great hearing some rappers that can also sing very well. Most of the back tracking wasn't generic but not very memorable. B.O.B. easily stole the show for me. Favorite(s): B.O.B. Humble Mumble Least: Ms. Jackson I'll Call B4 I Cum 3.5/5

Ms. Jackson is about me apologizing to Anna for eating a PB&J What a stanky album. I love it. I think it has some awkward moments lyrically that stop it from being a 5, but it has a lot of incredible tracks. Great production. Eclectic beats that feel alive. W: snappin & trappin, B.O.B. L: I'll call b4 I cum 4/5

fave songs: so fresh, so clean & gangsta shit

Standouts: B.O.B, so fresh, so clean, we luv deez hoez, red velvet, toilet tisha & ms. Jackson Very interesting album with poignant societal commentary, I feel like there are times it doesn't really land, but there are others (for example, toilet tisha and B.O.B) where it's simply heartbreaking. Very cool production too, I'm extremely uncultured so can't speak too much on this aspect. The features where nice too, I especially like the Erykah Badu one.

hnnng okay take a 4

Better than Coldplay

classic

It has some of the group's best songs, but it also has some real misses that don't need to be there. Still, so many peak songs, so it gets a mid 4

Should be a 5, but it is too long and the annoying interludes need to go. Some absolute classic songs from the era on here though.

A real hip-hop odyssey with all manners of flavour throughout. OutKast are just on a whole other level here compared to everyone else at the time, delivering songs that are authentic and truthful. I especially enjoyed the creativity in the sampling, such as the reversing of "Strawberry Letter 23" in "Ms Jackson" to get that unique sound needed to really complete the ensemble. "B.O.B" was another particular highlight, and I feel as if that's the track I'll be returning to again and again. Just sublime.

great duo, great album. cant go wrong with them. spaghetti junction is goated. even tho the albums good, it had a few skips like snappin n trappin(dont like killer mike) and ?.

André 3000 and Big Boi bought Bobby Brown's recording studio in Atlanta, renamed it Stankonia, a combination of the word stank meaning funky and Plutonia from a poster of a futuristic city on André's bedroom wall, moved in together, painted lyrics directly onto the walls, and spent a year making an album without listening to a single hip hop record. Their primary influences were Prince, Chuck Berry, Jimi Hendrix and Little Richard. The result was released on Halloween 2000 and described by one critic not as a release but as a detonation. During recording, André 3000 quietly decided he no longer wanted to rap and preferred singing instead. Big Boi and every producer in the building disagreed with this position. André did it anyway on several tracks. He was right and everyone else was wrong, which is a sentence that summarizes André 3000's entire artistic career with remarkable efficiency. B.O.B opens at approximately 155 beats per minute, combining drum and bass, gospel choir, and a level of controlled chaos that sounds like four genres arguing with each other and somehow winning simultaneously. Radio stations refused to play it because nobody could figure out where the chorus was. Ms. Jackson became their first number one single and is an apology to the mothers of women you have wronged, delivered with enough charm that it functions simultaneously as a confession and a bop. André has stated it was written about a specific real situation involving a specific real person. That person knows who she is. The album runs 73 minutes across 24 tracks including seven interludes, which is either generous or excessive depending on your patience for interludes, of which I have limited reserves. The interludes are the honest reason this sits at a 4 rather than pushing toward a 5. Everything around them earns considerably more. 4 out of 5. One star for B.O.B, which hits like a freight train that also went to church. One for Ms. Jackson, which is the most charming apology in hip hop history. One for buying Bobby Brown's studio, painting lyrics on the walls, and refusing to listen to hip hop for a year before making one of the best hip hop albums ever recorded. One for André 3000, who wanted to sing instead of rap, was told no by everyone, and was completely correct. The fifth star was lost somewhere in the interludes and has not been recovered.

Dryper av p-funkreferenser! Älskar, även om den är i längsta laget. Listan toklevererar för tillfället!

Kanske är en femma om man pallar lyssna på mastodonten fem gånger till

I like this about as much as I can like this genre of music.

So. Many. Interludes. I just don't get why this is a thing. They're never, ever, ever good. And, on an album of otherwise such high caliber as this, that's a damn shame. Anyway, I love Andre 3000 and Big Boy, I love the sound of this album, I love the songs. But for the interludes, I'd give this a 5.

It's not 100% solid but it's weird and wonderful. The guests add a lot on this one.

4/5 - Now this brings me back to the early 2000s. So Fresh, So Clean, Ms. Jackson, B.O.B. are the standouts here, but it's all damn fun.

This is peak commercial hip hop. I want to hate but I can’t, the songs are irresistibly fun. It’s the kind of thing I’d be self-conscious playing around others but might make appearances in the gym rotation. First listen highlight was “B.O.B. (Bombs Over Baghdad)”.

Album #200 for me on the list and it's definitely a long one! If you've been following along, you know that hip hop/rap isn't my favorite genre, but there are several songs on this particular album that I know and like. What I like about Outkast and this album, generally, is that it's much more musical than a lot of rap. It has a lot of funk to it. There are different styles so that it doesn't all sound so similar. There are definitely songs on here that just aren't for me, but my personal opinion is that this is a much more well-rounded album than a lot of other hip hop/rap albums. Having said all of that, it's just way too long - almost an hour and 15 minutes. There are several songs that could have been cut and they could have done without the skit "interludes". The interludes seem to be a thing on a lot of rap albums from that time period, and I just don't see what they add to the album. Overall, a classic for the genre and the time and belongs on the list.

Just as weird and funky as I hoped. OutKast is great at being light and comedic as well as getting deeper emotionally. Bit too long for me and it's always awkward listening to male rappers describe sex for some reason.

Why so long is my first reaction. Starts well though, sounds like Outkast, they had a sound of their own for sure. It's cool, funky, clever. Skipping the interludes, still too long. 3.5 rounded up Heard before? Some Owned: No, 97/368 (26%) Will I get: No

Review - wow this is a good album. Run of the first 4 proper tracks is great. Big downside is it's from the "we need interludes every 2 tracks" era. Score - 7.5/10 Need to listen? YES

4.5

I'm not a big fan of the genre but it's undoubtedly a classic. I'd give it 3 stars based on my personal opinion, but I feel like this piece is very important where it needs to be and it would be unfair.

I really want to give this a five, but it's so front-loaded that the back half just draaaaags, and the interludes bog things down throughout. Rap is truly a singles-based style, and rarely great in album format. This is no exception, but man, some of these tracks are all-timers.

Torn on this one. It might be just a bit too long to warrant 5 stars. Felt it dragging a bit. But overall it is so good.

Good album

7/15/25 A nice paring with American Idiot

Soft four for the bangers, but the album overall is far too long

4.13

fuck the 4th of july! fave track b.o.b.

I have Stankonia in my record collection but I haven't listened to it in ages. If I feel like listening to Outkast, I choose Aquemini. Stankonia's highlights are really good, but the low points are some of the worst things Outkast has ever produced.

I had assumed from the singles alone that OutKast were a funky but forgettable pop rap group. But it obviously isn't so: this record surfs a range of styles and collects a number of quality bangers alongside a decent amount of filler.

don't care for the interludes but still cohesive ms jackson classic misogyny but it slaps

Kim and Cookie sound fun Love the ‘break’ before every song Need to listen to more experimental southern rap stuff

gut, ms. jackson kennt und liebt man

Had listened once before

Amazing album..... Personal favourites 1. Red velvet 2.Spaghetti junction 3. Ms jackson America was pretty cool in 2000's afterall

Amazing.

This is a wonderful hop-hop album, really something unique and special. Not many tracks I already knew here apart from Ms. Jackson, however it is tight, it flows nicely and doesn't get old. I will definitely give it 4 stars, maybe 3.5 on RYM but maybe higher. However, I am surprised they wouldn't include other Outkast albums on this list, I would rather put something like Aquemini which was groundbreaking for it's time and still sounds great.

Outkast is a rapping contradiction. Over the course of one track, you get highly intelligent lyrics and unbelievably crude lyrics in the same rap. It’s a bit unsettling to me and makes it difficult to enjoy. The skits seem to become the same - some clever, some crass. I suppose it represents the duality of the band. Andre 3000 and Big Boi are two very different sounding artists. At times they sound better as separate vocalists, but sometimes it works out for the better like “B.O.B.”, one of the best new-to-me songs I’ve heard over the course of this project. Hip Hop and Rap are not my favorite genres, but this record is impressive in its scope and originality. Now I can see why they are so revered by the music industry. 4 stars

While Speakerboxxx/The Love Below found the Outkast members separating into their own sound, Stankonia exemplifies how the duo could work brilliantly together. Andre 3000's meowing, clearly soul-inspired vocals blend beautifully with Big Boi's blistering, sometimes slightly angry, rapping. According to the artists, they didn't listen to rap at all while recording the album, and it shows — if you stripped away the lyrics, the instrumentals sounded like rave electronics, funk, or old rock, but certainly not like the slow, languid beats of late-90s hip-hop. I'd even say that in some places, the songs could be mistaken for Cypress Hill or Rage Against the Machine (not surprising, considering B-Real raps on one track, and another was remixed by Zack de la Rocha). A very juicy and cheerful album, despite the serious topics it often raises, which, however, are sometimes relieved by humorous skits.

It's crazy that an album this weird gave them the most commercial success they'd had to this point. I think it's a clear step down from the last two (which aren't in this book????), but it's still really great and fascinating.

I was quite surprised by this one. Definitely a lot more than just the singles, and even the skits didn't annoy me.

lotta gas, bit of ass

Funny to get both OutKast albums on this list within a week or two each other. Might have been one of the first rap albums I ever listened to. Don’t remember much except the few hit songs, so will be interesting to give it a listen again. Such an interesting sound on so much of it. It’s a rap album with some funk, rock influences that really make it stand out. And sometimes it’s just straight forward hard rap. So Fresh, So Clean and Mrs Jackson is great back to back. Awesome tracks. How are these songs 25+ years old!? Damn. This is a fun album that has enough variety to keep you interested. But it is definitely a little too long. There are some songs in the middle of the album and towards the end that don’t match the quality of the better songs earlier on. I think this is a solid 4. At times it reaches 5 level, but seems to drag a little too much at times. Really good though. Love a lot of it, even the songs that aren’t timeless classics.

Lot's of good on this album and a bit that's not for me GOOD: Sorry Ms. Jackson and So Fresh, So Clean. NOT FOR ME: Snappin' and Trappin'. Overall good outweighs bad - 4/5

7/10 Fantastic album. A couple songs I didn't add but for the most part this is full of bangers

Really great Hip Hop album. The first third in particular is just so good. Really enjoyed this one.

B.O.B Gangsta Shit

The hits are undeniable. There's a few tracks I found a bit boring though.

This album is widely considered their best, but for me it's a distant second to Aquemini. There are a lot of great tracks but also some pretty mid ones and some skits, not my thing. But OutKast is probably the last great hip hop group, which just doesn't seem to be a thing anymore, and this record has some of their highest highs. They really nail the Parliament tributes without being too tied to replicating them precisely. Gasoline Dreams, So Fresh,So Clean, Ms Jackson, B.O.B., some of their best work. But at 75 minutes, it's about 15 minutes too long

I enjoyed it plenty, B.O.B was my favorite

Liked Gangsta Shit the most, also ofc So Fresh So Clean. Music made me feel like smoking a cig at a bar lowk sounded mix of jazz and raggae (few songs). Liked it but will not listen to daily

Violent and chill in harmony

Some cheesy parts but overall an exceptional album start to finish. OutKast is a legend.

Great album. I owned a copy of this album on cd in high school. Several hits and great songs. Musically diverse.

One of my favorite rap duos. Outlast has always been unique but its really Andre 3000 is the one that speaks to me. Big Boi's alright but Andre's weirdness is what gets me.

Outkast - Stankio An absolute smorgasbord of selection box of a Woolworths pick n mix of an album. It's all over the place. And pretty much all those places are great places indeed Funk, house, soul, techno, rock, psychedelia infused rap? Yes please! When it wasn't punching me in the chest with Gasoline Dreams and Bombs over Baghdad, it was soothing my mind - So Fresh, So Clean & I'll Call Before I come. So many shades of Prince and Funkadelic poking their way through - Ms Jackson and pretty all the others. Loved it. Was it too long? Maybe. What would I drop? Apart from the just too weird closing title track, I don't know. Best Track - Bombs over Baghdad. Instantly became a classic in my ears. Rock, gospel, jungle, techno, rap Worst Track - Stankonia. Could happily have his six minutes back. 8.5/10

Pretty iconic - enjoy the little interludes throughout this

A real force of nature.

This album ha some great tracks. It also has some just ok tracks, useless skits, and a whole lot of bloat. Cutting the bloat would make this an easy 5. As it is, I looked at where I was in the 24 (!?!) track list way too much for this to be great.

Marko -4.5 Sara-4

Snappin' & Trappin'

Stanky prog-hop/hip-prog? nice

So much variety. Probably not their best release but hard to complain. 7/10

OutKast is one of the most creative rap duos of all time. I love André 3000’s voice so much; he’s got that smooth southern style that sits right in my ears. Big Boi’s deeper voice contains a richness all its own and is a perfect complement to André. This album is a feast for the senses filled with depth, experimentation, playfulness, and wisdom. It took me on a journey I didn’t know I wanted or needed to go on. The album cover is just further proof that they are, in fact, the coolest muthafunkers on the planet.

This is a fantastic album but I do think it could use just a little trimming. It's right on the edge of five stars for me.

Overall: 4.35 (rounded to 4) Consistency: 4.4 Originality: 4 Enjoyment: 4.5 Virtuosity: 4.5 1. Intro - NA 2. Gasoline Dreams - 5 3. I'm Cool - NA 4. So Fresh, So Clean - 5 5. Ms. Jackson - 5 6.

Luv it

Good vibes

Fun listen, and the ones I already loved I still loved

Ms Jackson is classic

solid 4.0. Álbum divertido

First things first, B.O.B. (Bombs Over Baghdad) is simply one of the coolest songs to ever exist, period. Outside of that, there are a lot of pretty great songs in here. Gasoline Dreams, Ms. Jackson, and Humble Mumble all stood out to me. I also enjoyed "?" even though it was weird. Despite all the bangers, there are a few that fall flat. I honestly just didn't like Snappin' & Trappin', I'm not really sure what Toilet Tisha was going for, and I feel like you can cut all the interludes and lose nothing. Way more bangers than not, though, absolutely worth a listen.

So fresh

A fantastic album which ran a little long and could have been a bit nicer to women... 7/10

Can’t listen to this much in clean conscience but definitely one of the best rap albums ever

Agree with Mikey Mike and the funky bunch.

Entertaining album from these guys, very fun, and actually pretty diverse musically. It's also much more melodic than many rap albums. Every song has a distinct feel and personality but, like too many albums, it goes on too long. I felt like I was watching episodes of the show "Atlanta" as I was listening.

Outkast is always great - I think this is slightly below the speakerboxx/love below level, but has great songs like Mrs. Jackson, Bombs Over Baghdad, and So Fresh So Clean

Не знаю что написать. Нормальный альбом. Возможно даже переслушал в последствии

8.5 / 10

Some very good stuff in here, I really wanted to give it a 5 but I just can't see myself listening to it again

B.O.B. is a 5 every time. BUT, no matter how good your album is, if it is over an hour it's too long. 3.5⭐️ but rounding up for the singles.

Finally another rap album. And one that I know is good even without listening all the way through before. I think Andre 300 is overrated but I’ve heard too many good things abt this album for it to be bad. Intro is really cool. Very unique. Production on gasoline dreams is really good. Love how they use the guitar. Love a good fade from one song to the next. So fresh so clean is an absolute classic. What a chorus/prodcution. And then followed by one of the best hip hop songs of all time. Every great rap song needs a piano and chorus like this one. This one I do get the Andre 3k Hype. Bass line is so sick too. What a song. Snappin and trapping is fine. Beat is definitely really cool but it doesn’t work with the flows very well. Back on track with spaghetti junction. Great bars and great production. Love the horns. I like hearing all these beats that are still be used on new songs today. So many Drake and migos beats on this album. I’ll call is really fun. Not the best but a fun song. BOB is by far the best lyrically. Production is awesome too. Great song. Really cool beta on explosion but the sounds are off. Vocals too low. Beat on we love these hoez is so sick again. Great lyrics on this one too. Another sick beat on humble mumble. And again I get the 3k hype on this one. Love the production on ?. What’s funny abt this album tho is that I’m generally a massive fan of skits and interludes but these just aren’t really doing it for me. My lord what a beat on red velvet. This song is so good. Might be the best on the album. Can’t believe this one didn’t have the commercial success. Gangsta shit is another really good song. Again the production is so good. Toilet Tisha is odd. The beat is really cool but not sure abt the lyrics. Slim beautiful is pretty cool. Not the best or the worst in the album. Good elements and bad elements. A little disappointed with stank love as the closer. The production is awesome but would’ve like something catchier/more forgettable from the lyrics and vocals. Overall, Extremly enjoyable listen. It’s not the goat rap album which I know some would say it is but it’s really really good. This won’t be the last time I listen to it. 4.2/5

Really cool funky tunes, i liked the interludes - they were a nice mix-in. The whole album comes together very well its a mixture of fresh music, laid back rap and fun beats. Its the kind of music you would listen whilst driving in a roofless car with your friends. My faves were So Fresh, So Clean and Stankonia.

southern hip hop, ms. jackson, great album

Tremendo

The best stuff on here (B.O.B., Humble Mumble, Ms. Jackson, etc) is unbeatable, but suffers a bit from the length.

Helllllll yes it’s funky it’s fun it’s got flow it’s got beats you’ve not heard before what else do you want? More of it 4.0/5.0 Best Song: So Fresh, So Clean

I love Outkast so much, Stankonia is a great example of what they are good at, kinda funny kinda mad hiphop. I think this is their 3rd best album? Maybe 4th? Best Track: We Luv Deez Hoez

Great stuff man

(4) Afro-futurism to the core…

Had fun, but I agree with Jelle

Goed, maar tis veel, tis echt zoveel.

I already listened to this album from my individual project! I dig outkast. Verrryyy good gym/running album. Ms jackson is a classic for a reason. Personally, and dont judge me, but ive been low key listening to I'll call b4 i cum since i heard it the first time. Sue me but the beat is a bop

Pas aussi bien que The Love Below, mais quand même pas mal du tout.

I forgot how good this album was.

I think I've listened to this before? Very funky, fun album. 4/5.

HOLY FUCK WAS THIS SPRAWLING! It felt like the longest episode of Atlanta ever made. So surreal and real and equal parts heartbreaking and hilarious. This Andre 3000 guy might have a career ahead of him. The production is better and more varied than on previous projects and the skits are genuinely some of the most charming in the genre. I wanna start this one over again immediately, but I am realizing that I forgot to rate Alive Cooper yesterday, 🙄, so I will be doing that after this. Standout Tracks: Gasoline, B.O.B., Humble Mumble, ?, Slum Beautiful, Stankonia Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️✨️

I liked the transitions between the songs and quite a few of the songs where pretty chill
