veronica 2 Posted October 21, 2004 Share Posted October 21, 2004 Has anyone here got the Outkast album(s)? Any good? It's not usually my kind of music but the few songs I've heard I've liked. Just want to hear an opinion among friends Link to post Share on other sites
Yuki's Passion 1 Posted October 21, 2004 Share Posted October 21, 2004 The rap group right? Theyre from Atlanta and are a really good rap group. Dont listen to that much rap myself but after seeing them put on a free live concert in college I was hooked on them. Been downloading lots of their stuff on a program called bearshare. Just like napster but hasnt been taken of the net yet... Downloaded 75 songs this morning. Ahhhh, boring typhoon days! roses where are my panties - funny skit rosa parks so fresh, so clean are a few of my favs... Link to post Share on other sites
Fattwins 0 Posted October 21, 2004 Share Posted October 21, 2004 give me the name of the album and ill get it tonite and tell you tomorrow. Link to post Share on other sites
indosnm 0 Posted October 21, 2004 Share Posted October 21, 2004 a few really good songs on their lastest album, but the rest is pretty lame. Link to post Share on other sites
NoFakie 45 Posted October 21, 2004 Share Posted October 21, 2004 Outkast are great. I think they ham up their accents a bit, which makes them even better. The last album sounds like they've effectively split up. Big Boi's is basically Outkast as was, while Andre's sounds like Prince, Rick James, and Bootsy's Rubber Band. "I'll call before I come I won't just pop up over Out the blue-woo-hoo No, after you!" Link to post Share on other sites
slow 0 Posted October 21, 2004 Share Posted October 21, 2004 "Ms Jackson" is my favorite. When one of them (I forgot which he was...) came to Zepp Tokyo, I really wanted to go. They don't do live performance as "Outkast"? Link to post Share on other sites
kintaro 0 Posted October 21, 2004 Share Posted October 21, 2004 Outkast is sort of like alternative rap. It's rap/R&B. But it ain't gansta rap, ain't straight up East coast rap. My opinion of Outkast is sort of like what Porno for Pyro's or the Pyxies are to classical alternative. It's just different. I think the hip hop and rap fans who are tired of Death Row/Bad Boy sounds like this new style. Didn't they have the 2004 album of the year in the US? A-town is havin' a good year for sure.

7-11 2 Posted October 22, 2004 Share Posted October 22, 2004 The last album is that isn't it - the last one? I'm sure I read that, it being effectively 2 different artists. Did they 'perform' on each others or was it completely separate? Link to post Share on other sites
KlingKlang 1 Posted October 22, 2004 Share Posted October 22, 2004 I wasn't impressed with what I heard... Hey Ya is annoying. Link to post Share on other sites
maoriboy 0 Posted October 22, 2004 Share Posted October 22, 2004 My goodness how could you diss "Hey Ya"? One of the most infectious ditties Ive heard in ages!! And so lighthearted until you actually listen to the lyrics fav Outkast song??? Bombs over Bagdad or Ms Jackson... Link to post Share on other sites
KlingKlang 1 Posted October 23, 2004 Share Posted October 23, 2004 How can I diss it? Well, it annoys the hell out of me, that's how. Enough of a reason! Link to post Share on other sites
big-will 7 Posted October 23, 2004 Share Posted October 23, 2004 It's easy to see how Hey Ya could be annoying. Don't care either way myself, but it is one of those songs that could easily become irritating. Link to post Share on other sites
barok 0 Posted October 24, 2004 Share Posted October 24, 2004 Check out the Aquemeni (sp?) album. Last album before they blew up. Super good stuff. . . Link to post Share on other sites
rach 1 Posted October 26, 2004 Share Posted October 26, 2004 I may well just do that, I've heard a lot about these might be worth a look. barok - you not visiting Japan this year then? Link to post Share on other sites
Yuki's Passion 1 Posted October 26, 2004 Share Posted October 26, 2004 I like ATLiens too. Both of those CDs are really good Link to post Share on other sites
