Apparently some of you old timers don't know who Outkast is. |

There one of the most important musical duos in decades and have recently released a double album "Speakerboxxx/The Love Below" which is quite probably the most important work since the Beattles White Album.
Do yourself a favor and check it out. It's worth the price. Big Boi puts out some great tracks, just his album alone is great. But Andre 3000 is a musical genius and the most original artist working in any genre, he's the John Lennon to Big Boi's Paul McCartney.
And if you think hip hop music is all about shooting white people and malt liquor you need to pull your head out of your hood and buy this cd anyway. It's not that I endorse racism, it's just that I feel people with confederate flags on their pickups deserve a fighting chance to hear good music.

"I rap about the presidential election (and the scandal) that followed And we all watched the nation as it swallowed and chalked it up... Basically America you got f*cked ... the media shucked and jived now we stuck...damn.
Operation Anaconda...ask yourself was it full of bleeps and blunders? Did they ever find Usama? And why in the f*ck did Daniel Perle have to pay the price for his life? And his wife plead twice..."
Big Boi of Outkast in "War"
