Elevators is my favorite OutKast track (probably). It's so fucking lowfi and nice. Andre 3000 sounds so god damn slick on it too, it's nuts.

@dontknow562 6 лет назад

I agree with Myke on Big Boi and Andre 3000. I feel they were still on par with each other, it's just Andre's subject matter got way more mature

@lawrencesmith5633 6 лет назад

Earthtone III was a production group consisting of Big Boi, Stacks, and Mr. DJ

@Marques.Marcus85 6 лет назад

Andres verses became even more introspective on ATLiens. If you study all Kast albums you can say the Their are sound changes on every album.

@josephine_marie 6 лет назад

ATLiens="Southern Tribe by Quest Vibe", right on point Beezy

@bdot187um 6 лет назад

Jo outkast is waaaaaaay better imo.

@kohort1 6 лет назад

Right, kast was always in some extra other level. Tribe had the "vibe" and defined themselves as such. But they still fit somewhat squarely within golden era East coast rap along with native tongue spectrum. Outkast and goodie first album were southern in feel musically but still not like other southern hip hop groups. They had southern drawl but you could hear lyrical influences from the West true schoolers like hieroglyphics crew (and they even admit that). And atliens is when they represented the South but were on some way other level than anyone anywhere.

@daystar73 5 лет назад

Nah. ATLiens = ATLiens Tribe is Tribe. OutKast is Outkast.

@apexone5502 4 года назад

And Tribe was one of Kast's favorite groups. Those two groups are at a level that I would buy their albums without hearing any singles.

@jsmarketing 6 лет назад

Atliens will always be my favorite OutKast album. I remember the day I bought it and popped it in and riding to my cousin house. I remember calling all of my boys after I finished the album and telling them I just listened to one of the craziest albums I have ever heard. This came out when It Was Written and Fugees The Score dropped. 1996 was one of the greatest years of hiphop.

@TravisBickle910 6 лет назад

ATLiens is the southern rap equivalent to Illmatic.

@mamba4817 10 месяцев назад

What about The Diary?

@crackyourdaddy345 6 лет назад

There was actually a preview tape before ATLiens came out. The hype around this album was so huge in Augusta and Macon. My favorite...... 13th Floor/Growing old. Gave me new perspective of it all. Andre 3000 actually got rhyme of the month in the source for his verse in Babylon, Track#8.

ATLiens truly a timeless work of art. Songs with serious subjects like Decatur Psalms a cautionary tale of the street life or Jazzy Belle, Growing old etc really show the love & respect they had for their audience.

@johnmurray6846 6 лет назад

ATLiens is my favorite album of all time...

@1JayTheJet 6 лет назад

Classic album... I remember it was a must have where I'm at in Detroit. We knock Outkast all the time because for one they had that funk sound early on. Goodie Mob Soul Food too

@bkearney4576 6 лет назад

Big Boi has to be the most underrated rapper of all time. His new album is one of the best of the year.

@Ayplus 6 лет назад

B Kearney yea. being alongside 3 Stacks caused that

@SeniorBrochacho 6 лет назад

I get the feeling him and rappers like Killer Mike are fine with that. They don't need the spotlight because it doesn't stop or fuel their grind. People will come to their talent regardless. Though it is nice when something you like blows up big and those 2 deserve more,especially Big Boi.

@matttraverso4592 6 лет назад

B Kearney Big Boi is Pippen, 3k is jordan

@tapeck4340 6 лет назад

Matt Traverso wrong, Big Boi proved he wasn't with Sir Lucious Left Foot. It's more like Shaq and Kobe, both are better together than without

@jay2k981 6 лет назад

Basiccc Andre 3000 is still amazing with out Big Boi, It was like Big Boi was holding him back at some points

@PheeblePhilosopher 6 лет назад

ATLiens was the first album I ever bought. 10 yo with $20 grabbed their CD & a water gun, #CLASSIC. People always say their regions didn't fuxk with the South, well in Chicago it was the exact opposite.

Myke hit it on the head. Big Boi in the GOAT conversation with Andre. He just chose not to change his style. Aquemini he showed he can be a poet as well

@suigeneris886 6 лет назад

Dope that yall mentioned Earthtone. Ultimately they became Earthtone III (which included Mr. DJ). A severely underrated production troupe

WhoaNellyJake Haha as much as I like Tribe Dre and Big rapped circles around the late Phife Dog (rip big homie) and QTip

@ThePacemaker45 6 лет назад

I've always liked this more than Aquemini. Liked how "weird" it was. I feel Aquemini had more radio friendly/ commercial singles like "Rosa Parks" and "Da Art of Story Telling Part 1" but in this one, it had an Alien feel to the production. Like nothing I'd ever heard before.

@NutRacer22 6 лет назад

ThePacemaker45 I thought/still think Aquemini is much weirder than ATLiens, and has always been number 1 for me with ATLiens at 2

@pojomon1234 6 лет назад

ThePacemaker45 I agree in the sense that Atliens has such an otherworldly sound which makes it so distinct. Songs like Babylon epitomise this and the album itself is incredible, I feel there is no other hip hop album that replicates or provides a similar extraterrestrial sonic landscape. However Aquemini feels more polished and is virtually the perfect hip hop album.

@assboyzent.2941 6 лет назад

The title track in Aquemini alone makes it better than Atliens.

@hebrew26commandmentspower55 6 лет назад

AssBoyz Ent. I agree .... Aquemini is something that has yet to be duplicated ......it's Outkast's Mona Lisa

@FoxyChariot 6 лет назад

AssBoyz Ent. ATLIENS, Millennium, Andre's verse on Wailin, Jazzy Belle, the intro, Babylon, 2 Dope Boyz (In A Cadillac), Elevators (Me & You)

@eddied80 6 лет назад

From NY; I remember the video for Elevators and the title track but I never heard this full album. First Outkast album i copped was Aquemini shortly after I completed USMC boot Camp in '98. Southern dudes were hyping it up and it didn't disappoint!

@alejandroramirez4470 6 лет назад

need to definitely check these albums out. Being younger than some of these iconic 90s albums I usually put off listening to them. The 00s also has some albums and artists that changed hip hop and still learning a lot about them.

@_heartunderblade2451 6 лет назад

Im so glad you guys did this review, felt like a long time coming. Especially since the damn patrons only be voting for kanye and aquemini gets put on the back burner. Thanks guys!

@pojomon1234 6 лет назад

There's an enthralling sense of an unknown odyssey that permeates through this album. The spacey sonics mesmerised me upon my first listen of this year and for a short time I was adamant it was better than aquemini. Babylon might be my favourite Outkast song ever, it feels otherwordly yet is grounded in religious sentiment.

@IJ_Rogers 6 лет назад

Though, Earthtone is an production crew that consist of Andre, Big and Mr. DJ, the story of Q-Tip producing most of Tribe's joints applies to Andre as well. Andre is the creative genius behind those joints where Earthtone is credited. Whether he'll create from the drum machine or telling the musicians what he wanted by doing the sounds with his mouth. He's the mastermind behind those productions.

@yutathehakislayer4720 6 лет назад

IJ Rogers give big boi his credit tho

@IJ_Rogers 6 лет назад

Ancient _217 I'm just talking about on the production tip. He's still an great MC but the truth is André produced those joints.

@t.wynderogriffin798 2 года назад

That is incorrect, Dre did not lead on production with earth tone ……mr DJ would get the nod there, if anyone.

@rfjowers0839 5 лет назад

This was the probably the best production y’all Have ever done

@mr.blackculture8111 6 лет назад

Great review. Go back to the Incomplete off the double cd Love Below on the song Incomplete where he was going on a spiritual journey to find himself. So during the mid 1990's Atlanta was hub Dr Malachi Z. York ' s cult called the Nuwaupians. This the reason for rocking the Turban. Among studying other religions/spiritual paths. That is why his lyrics were so abstract, spiritual and poetical.

@tuchesuavae 6 лет назад

This album changed my life.

@yutathehakislayer4720 6 лет назад

Atliens is amazing

@Dogen70 6 лет назад

As an old head. we bumped this but this is when atlanta hip hop got it's schism. the intelligence and "earthy" flavor started getting big. Apache cafe type deal. and andre covered that and big boi stayed to his street style. and it was great but a lot of us ended up having to go back. like i bought this cd like 3 times. it is highly underrated in their catalogue still to this day.

@JupiterGirlify 6 лет назад

my fav outkast album, sometimes its hard to choose since dependin on the mood but since its all bout that weird unusual shit then i've got to automatically relate

@decutta404 6 лет назад

I wish I was there for this conversation 👍

@thompsonappliance3078 6 лет назад

They missed Mr. DJ is apart of Earthtone3 with outkast. The sound on "wheelz of steel" is incredible. The way that bass guitar moves the body was crazy, the way they lead with the bass guitar in the mix is what seperates them.

@MentalStillness 6 лет назад

Man after that intro I forgot about Southern Playalistic. I'm a little different. I've always been open minded with music and this album was and still is unreal.

@dakhari4o4 6 лет назад

This is my favorite Dead End Hip Hop review.

@mbuck253 Год назад

To me, Outkast has the best discography in hip-hop hands down. Every album doesn’t have a skippable track. Even down to the intros and skits. Aside from Idlewild. Even all of Big Boi’s solo albums are dope from front to back. Feel like Big Boi doesn’t get the level of respect that he truly deserves.

@mommysatchick-fil-a3994 Год назад

Mamacita.

@sophus7932 3 года назад

He said atliens sounded like west coast music and southernplayalisticcaddillacmuzik sounded like the south, when it’s the total opposite. SPCM was their first which meant they hadn’t found their own sound yet, that’s why it resembled G-funk, it was on atliens OutKast developed their unique southern sound. He got it all wrong

@bamos8729 Год назад

I remember when elevators came out. Im saying to myself that's one of the most amazing beats I've ever heard. The good old days I miss it

@ericlegend95 6 лет назад

I think how they bend the words also make this album iconic, like the hook on ATLiens. That is something that inspired the rappers after them, like Eminem & Kanye.

@vinay5807 6 лет назад

@00ABBITT00 6 лет назад

Solid review. This one of my top 10 albums of all time. Just want to correct what Mike said about all coasts rejecting southern rap. I'm from the Bay Area and there has always been a connection between The Bay and the south, namely Houston, NO and ATL. Look up E40's Southwest Riders double disk compilation or Master P's West Coast Bad Boys compilations. Tons of Bay Area and South rappers collaborating. There's also the whole Rap'aLot camp which was made up of Bay cats and South cats.

@zinedinosmanovic5192 6 лет назад

Great review, Outkast is my favorite group. Just curious, why exactly did Rod point out the "put your hands in the atmosphere" line? Is there a play on words I don't get or something? I just understand it as hands in the air, heh.

@madnap7972 6 лет назад

Zinedin Osmanović its just a creative way to say the phrase, it comes out sounding nice and original naturally

@twite5462 6 лет назад

also because of the outer space/alien theme

@DaLomlMusic 6 лет назад

Zinedin Osmanović he was saying that Andre rapped so differently from big boi and saying he's so unique "he didn't even say put your hands in the air he said put your hands in the atmosphere." It's just a simple but crazy way to say an already iconic line in hip hop

@zinedinosmanovic5192 6 лет назад

Ah, okay. Personally I don't find switching atmosphere for air that special but still, great album haha:)

@MentalStillness 6 лет назад

The Dungeon Family as a whole changed the musical landscape and the perception of the South. Obviously Geto Boyz came out first but over in ATL. they took it to another level. Goodie Mob's Soul Food, Still Standing, Outkast's entire damn catalogue took rap to another plateau. Ceelo when he went solo kept it going. His debut album may have influenced Andre's Love Below, Childish Gambino as well.

Shouldve done aquemini but great Review

@pojomon1234 6 лет назад

Aidyn Colan I think aquemini is better although it's refreshing for atliens to have some retrospective attention

@ajjingunia 6 лет назад

Aidyn Colan ATLiens was a lot more innovative honestly. Ppl don't give it enough credit. No one in the game had rapped over mellow and sparse melancholic beats before this album. It's so ahead of its time, it literally sounds like trap with real instrumentation, real rapping, and without synthetic drums and hi-hat seizures. IMO it's aged a bit better than Aquemini too, because it's not as tied down to a signature 90s sound. Both are classics in their own rights tho, obviously, and comes down to preference

@ajjingunia 6 лет назад

It's also the album where Outkast really refined their sound. And Elevators is one of the most underrated hiphop songs of all time. It's just as good as Aquemini but doesn't get nearly as much attention (short of the Atlanta FX plug last year that was super dope)
