Outkast - ATLiens ALBUM REVIEW 

He still has yet to review kidz bop 1??? And he calls this classics week??

this is a masterpiece. not 1 weak track on the album, every single song adds to this album. Production that still sounds fresh today, iconic bars from big boi and andre 3k alike. Absolute certified classic, and one of my favourite albums ever.

Outkast dropped a new album? No way, stoked to listen thanks Anthony!

ATLiens, The Score, Makavelli, All Eyez On Me, Reasonable Doubt, It Was Written, Hell On Earth. 96' gon' be that year......

One of the best Hip-hop groups period. ATLiens still sounds like nothing else in the South along with every other album after this.

It always bothered me how people would downplay Big Boi like he was just Andre's weed carrier. I've said this before and I'll say it again, Big Boi is just as good of a rapper as 3 Stacks.

Go to shower smoke a joint go to bed set your headphones on set the lights of close your eyes and listen to the full Atliens and aquimini albums You will fly to another univers Peace from Germany!!!

Southernplayalisticadillacmuzik was big bois album ATLiens was Andre 3K's Aquemini was the best blend of the two But all are class

Liquid swords review please

OutKast - true brilliance. One of the best acts in hip hop ever. Period.

My fav Outkast album right here!

Fantastic record! Ive listened to there first five records over the last few years and they are really something special. Last i heard they are reuniting for a tour and new album :-) I'm excited!

Bruh anthony bringing back that early 2015 haircut again

This album is the comfiest hip-hop record ever made. The deep, bottomless oceanic production, the disembodied scratches, the space theme, the melancholic vibe and the personal lyrics. It continues to blow my mind that andre and big boi were only 21 when they made this album. Just fucking geniuses, nothing else to say.

I'm like Kubrick with two bricks

Aquemini will always be better than ATLiens imo but ATLiens is still a classic. Outkast has arguably the best discography in Hip-Hop and one of the best of all music

Filthy Frank said he is releasing Pink Season very soon, Outhony Kastano starts classics week Coincidence? I think not.

this is my personal favorite Outkast album

Some classic suggestions: the college dropout- kanye west are you experienced- jimi hendrix sgt peppers lonely hearts club band- the beatles reasonable doubt- jay z the marshall mathers lp- eminem

Wow, Outkast finally released a new album! I loved their album Roses so much but it was short not sure why they haven't made music in a couple years.

Oh no he has hair again

MAN i came when i saw this in my notifications; thank you for the review. One of the best hip hop albums of all time and in my top 10!

Me and you .....

Wait why doesn't he write his favorite tracks or the rating classic/10 in the description

Andre’s “check to check” line is one of the top 10 best lines in hip hop history

Damn, I always forget that his rating for classics is just "Classic"

My favorite outkast albums in order -Aquemini ATliens -southernplayalisticadillacmuzik -Stankonia -speakerboxxx/the love below

/I just bought the album on vinyl. I remember hearing the album back in the day, but I don't really remember it. I love how you review albums because you just talk about it and don't really play a lot of the music in the background. I might be the only one out there, but sometimes I'll buy an album and wait to hear it fully on vinyl before I can fully talk and tell people about the album! My point is I didn't want to hear any of the tracks in the review. I just wanted to hear what you had to say about it. Overall great review. 9 out of 10. You made me more hyped about hearing the album again after so many years. It should arrive tomorrow. Keep doing these kinds of reviews!!!

you literally could have chosen any Outkast album and you couldn't have gone wrong. I would have preferred Aquemini or Stankonia but I still love ATLiens

After a hard day back to school , I needed this

I don't understand people who think Aquemini is a better album to be honest..

always liked this one more than aquemini, which is definitely also a classic, but as far as cohesiveness and vibe goes, atliens takes it. it doesn't waste your time with skits, it's got insane song concepts, and the melancholic tone of the album, specifically the production, is unique in hip hop to this day. smoothest rap album of all time

SOLO THAT I CAN SEE UNDER THE SKIRT OF AN ANT

Aquemini > ATLiens

Review dat Pimp Trick Gangsta Clique album

This has been one of my favorite albums of all time. The way it kicks off with Two Dope Boyz sets the table for the first half of this album. I absolutely love the scratching on Wheels of Steel. I was in high school when it came out and I think this is the album that pulled me away from the west coast G Funk music into a entirely different world of Hip Hop. It has definitely stood the test of time. If I could pick two duos from 20 years ago to come back and drop albums this year... Outkast and Black Star.

missed a cut at around 8:20, you slacking fantano love you

If its classics week does that mean we're getting a Slime Season 3 review?

It's great that you also acknowledge and review Hip Hop classic albums that inspire Hip Hop today as well as new albums. I believe that makes young people wanna know more about the origins of Hip Hop. And as an old school Hip Hop fan I would like to see you reviewing more old school Hip Hop albums (especially The Pharcyde- Bizarre Ride II)

i have bin only bin subscribed for less than than a year to you brother but this is the first time ive commented , i see all your content . your always spot on. much love to you and your passion. misael from mexico

I called the crib they say "Breeze yeen know?" I say "What?", Big Time got popped in his Benzo

This album was literally released the day before my birth.

You have gotten very good at captivating the listener while being concise and purposeful with your reviews. The result of over 5 years of doing this I suppose, but it really shows in your classic reviews.

I love listening to this guy analyse hip hop records. He's very addictive for some reason. Very articulate and insightful.

I'm not even into hip-hop, but Outkast has that different vibe in every album they drop that's just pure fire.

This album is still one of my favorites and one of the best albums that dropped in 96' outside of all eyez on me, It was written, hardcore , 7 day theory, the speed of light, the resurrection and to some degree the doggfather. Anthony I'm not sure where you were, but Atliens and Elevators were bangers and got played everywhere! Now throw your hands in the air And wave 'em like you just don't care And if you like fish and grits and all that pimp shit Then everybody let me hear you say O-Yea-yer!! Nice review BTW!!

I like how you contextualize the album with the time in which it was released. It helps putting everything in perspective and understanding the album better.

This was beautiful and quite accurate, Anthony. ATLiens was the first album I ever bought. One thing to consider about the lull you mentioned at 11:45, I believe this album was made to be a cassette tape. I first bought it on cassette and Wheelz of Steel was the end of side A. I think the back end was decidedly more experimental, mellower, and featured more of their label mates.

3 Stackz the G.O.A.T

One for the money yessuh, two for the show...

Thank you for this! Classic album everyone should have in their library.

I had this album on replay for years, I didn't realise why it appealed to me so much until i matured into adulthood, Andre's versus are somewhat poetic , the content was mature. I listen to some of the 90's hip hop now and realise how basic the content was, even basic MC's had value though; when you look at early hip-hop collectively at least. Thanks for the reviews man, love the channel. If you ever have time could you make a video that lists recommendations of great albums in other genres for those who love hip-hop. I know this is vague but I would like to give other genres such as punk a listen but don't know where to start. I know taste is subjective so this may be a hard request. Thanks again.

Okay Anthony, Kidz Bop 1 Review better be uploaded tomorrow or this series is done

Is "G Funk-inspired" the new "Trap-inspired"?

At first i didnt like that album much, but he grew on me through the years, this thing is a masterpiece, "Growin Old" brings tears to my eyes. OutKast are the best of all time dude, i love these guys.

Hey needle drop love the channel. Love your authenticity and knowledge of music opens people eyes to other aspects of music such as production instruments etc. BUT FORREAL ARE YOU EVER GOING TO REVIEW MY BOY Bryson tillers ALBUM TRAPSOUL!?!??!?

OutAay - LMAOliens

I keep forgetting they were only 21 when they made this..Jesus

My favorite Outkast album n really appreciate this review of yours.

Great review, made me notice more of the influence they had. I often feel like a song is making a callout to outkast but im never sure

This is easily top 5 hip hop albums ever made. The beats are absolutely outstanding and as for the mcing, dre and big are superb

This is the album of my life. Outkast is the best thing to ever come out of Atlanta, I wish ATL still had this sound, man. Isaiah Rashad seems to carry the torch. #Outkast4Life

Great review and review choice! During the mid 90's it meant a lot to have Black rap artists entertaining us with beats and themes other than being paid major $$$ to glorify killing in the community because of the poverty we all were experiencing. Pharcyde, Tribe Called Quest, Arrested Development... some of these groups were a beacon for Black youngsters at the time who weren't just fans but actually dealt with the realities the group rapped about. Outkast's music depicted the artistry, tragedy and positive affirmation. Appreciated the stroll down memory lane!

My favorite hip hop album of all time. Of course Aquemini, Stankonia, and even the Love Below/Speakerboxxers have some great songs in them like Spottieottiedopealicious, Miss Jackson, and Hey Ya, but ATLiens is such a complete and beautiful album. Great review Memetano.

Classic review: College Dropout

Marshall Mathers LP Black Star The Diary Mathematics lifestylz ov da poor and dangerous you da homie fantonie

YES!!!!!! I'VE BEEN WAITING SINCE I GOT INTO OUTAKST TO HEAR THIS!

Literally have just been on a crazy atliens kick lately and this comes up in my feed 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

U SHOULD HAVE REVIEWED STANKONIA U MELON THAT ALBUM WAS ONE OF THE MOST GROUNDBREAKING ALBUMS OF ALL TIME

Instead of Classics week I wish you did a Classics month.

One of my Top 5 favorite albums of all time. Not just rap either, out of all genres. A true masterpiece.

Awesome Review. Wallin my favorite track keep it up bro!

Can we please get a review on a Big L album please?

If you are doing old albums, could you do one on N. E. R. D In Search Of?

This is the most important album in the history of hip hop (Aquimini is the most important album in the history of music). Thank you for this review of this classic album created by the greatest musical artist in the history of music. 99% of music has influences from the iconic group and that's most prevalent in looking how influential the South is in hip hop and popular culture in general. Most people don't know that they were producers as well since they went under the name Earthtone III (as you mentioned). Knowing they curated every aspect of these legendary songs puts them head and shoulders over any artist they could be compared to them. In 97 it was either East or West Coast and those sounds and styles over saturated the market this was a brilliant side step of the norm from that time as we've recently seen with Kendrick's To Pimp A Butterfly and Childish Gambino's Awaken, My Love. What they did with obvious jazz and funk themes respectively, Atliens did with airy space sounds and early forms of melodic flows (which is the norm today). I could literally write a dissertation on this album. In fact this album inspired a short story I wrote in 07 for the 10th anniversary of the album. I guess in the last sentence alone you can tell how life changing this album was for a 11 year old kid from San Diego and transforming him into an Atlien. #IAmOutKast #OutKastGeneration

Had no idea you reviewed older records. 🙌🏾

You should do a classic album review of Souls of Mischiefs 93 'Til Infinity... Spectony Blindtano

Solo that I am no rookie, but feel like a kid Looking at the others with astonishment while I'm on punishment Watching the summer come close to an end ^3k is constantly referencing himself in the season of fall

those Prince albums in the back best mean you'll be dropping a Prince review this week.

When you said on Twitter an Outkast review was coming, I was expecting Stankonia, but this is great because I like ATLiens more.

Classic review but you only gave this a 7/10???

This review was done months ago right?

i hope you do a jay z album next year man, my favourites are reasonable doubt and the black album so far havent heard blueprint, im so exited to see what punk review comes this week!!

I love you for this Anthony.

"I came into this world high as a bird from second hand cocaine powder"

AQUEMINI IS THE BEST ALBUM OF TIME

that Kendrick line made my day, I've been comparing Gkmc to old Andre 3k since it dropped

I love this album much man. Thanks for the review.

A Love Supreme plz :

Review Funcrusher plus next

IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS MY WHOLE LIFE OH MY GOD THANK YOU OUTHONY KASTANO!!!

Love this album, i would love to see your opinions/review on Aquemini one day

BRING BACK CAL CHUCHESTA

in my opinion this was outkast best album .. from start to finish i still dont skip their tracks i just let the album play . as far as their other albums they have a couple good songs here and there and then their albums just got weird atleast for me lol. but ATliens is straight up classic

TOP 5 HIP HOP ALBUM AND OUTKAST BEST WORK IMO. remember bumping this in my 2002 Taurus after buying it at a garage sale. the nostalgia is crazy YO ANTHONY U REAL FOR THIS ONE

Would be cool if you brought back the FAV tracks for classics. I usually use those to initially get into the album, much like other viewers I'm sure.

Outkast definitely influenced many hip hop artists since albums like this

im a HUGGGE outkast fan... i love all their albums except idlewild, which still has its gems (Hollywood divorce).. tbh idk what my favorite album is.. stankonia is my fav album from them

You Antknee, nice review! Just a sidenote: please write the L in in "ATliens" in the title of the video as an uppercase letter, thanks hehe :)

Great review! That kendrick part was spot on.
