Speakerboxxx/The Love Below
OutKast
Should really have been two separate albums.
Speakerboxxx: 2
Fairly straightforward hip hop. Struggled to get through it, since it felt a bit samey after a while.
The Love Below: 3.5
Kept my attention better due to its eclecticness. Was a bit too long though, and rather hit-and-miss.
