Outkast - The Whole World (Official Video) ft. Killer Mike 

I just want to send my apologies to those of you who missed out on the whole "Outkast" era...

Killer Mike is still killing it today with RTJ. Big Boi still cranking out the jams. I am not alone in saying we all miss Andre and wish to hear new music from him.

No one EVER in the history of hip hop dissed these dudes publicly. Says a lot.

This song has lived rent free in my head for damn near 2 decades and I'm fine with that

Hard to explain just how hyped I got the first time I heard Killer Mike's verse and the "glitter, glisten gloss, floss, I catch a beat running like Randy Moss" line. So great.

Anyone here in 2024

Andre3000 is only rapper who can go to the stage with a fucking pink skirt or whatever and nobody got nothing to say about it. Dude was and is a monster, genius.

Here because people act like the OUTKAST ERA wasn't running shit a skip ago‼️‼️‼️‼️

outkast is timeless! their shit has aged so well because it didn't try to sound like everything else at the time. they were just being themselves, wearing their influences on their sleeves but mixing it up into their unique blended cocktail. delicious.

It's July 2024 and this song is still relevant 💯

I Miss OutKast so much 😩😩

Here after Killer Mike's grammy award in 2024...a throwback for those who don't know the true hip hop heads.

Out of nowhere I just started binging on OutKast videos. I miss this era of music

My brother loved this group. Sleep in peace Kelvin Sanders💕

It’s 2022 and I’m binge listening to everything Outkast created. People don’t make music like this anymore…

That “I catch a beat running like Randy Moss” line is slept on

So many years passed by and this song still hits different.

Interesting fact a lot of you may not know: Killer Mike almost didn't get a record deal because of his name. Yes, the "Killer" part. It has been a popular word in rapper stage names, but record labels usually disagree with it. This is the same thing that made Ghostface Killer became Ghostface Killah just a few years earlier. Why "Killah" seems friendlier to the execs than "Killer", I don't know. But Killer Mike wouldn't budge on his name because he says he earned it after blowing out 5 or 6 other rappers in a freestyle competition one night and wore the name like a badge of honor.

20 Years later and that man *KILLER MIKE* got himself ANOTHER *GRAMMY* LETS GO!!!!🏆🔥🏆🔥

Andre 3000 is a great poet of our time!

"MY WORDS ARE DIAMONDS, DUG OUTTA MINES. SPIT EM POLISH, LOOK HOW THEY SHINE! That was a helluva introduction to Killer Mike

"Whatever floats your boat or finds your lost remote " has been a phrase of mine since the song dropped long ago...

For killer mike to jump on this track with 2 legends and drop the most memorable verse is crazy

Gen alphas: “Who is this killer Mike? Travis Scott better” Killer Mike: 2:19

I don't think Big Boy gets enough respect for his lyrics

Back when Southern hip-hop was largely brilliant, instead of the lazy shit it's largely become today.

I got chills and teary eyes before I even pushed play. Just a flood of musical energy I haven’t felt in a whole long time.

A 3 time Grammy winner Let's Gooooo! Congrats Killer Mike!🎉

2018! Shit still banging hard!

The Outkast era. Glad I was there. ✊

This song is much deeper than it appears.

outkast was ahead of they time

I don't think we will ever experience another era where creativity meets lyrical brilliance. Forever a gem!!

Outkast was ahead of their time

Player I grind, my focus is crime Raw with the rhyme, I'm slick with the slime My words are diamonds dug out a mine Spit 'em, polish, look how they shine Glitter, glisten, gloss, floss I catch a beat runnin like Randy Moss

Big boi is SO underrated.

Andre 3000 had one of the greatest verses of all time on this song. Think of all the gems he dropped. His insight into the human psyche is incredible. I think about the line about the airport layoffs almost everyday. The social awareness and how he waxes philosophical about people concealing their true selves even without shades. It saddens me that we will never be blessed with another Outkast album.

The fact Outkast and Gorillaz haven’t collaborated yet is a crime against humanity and hip hop fans The closest thing we’ve gotten is Andre 3000 on Doyathing

I was like 12 years old when i first heard this in middle school lol My friends from my after school program played this song over and over to point we all couldn’t stop listening to it lmao It was a fun moment. Also my time hearing the Outkast Group that day.

It brings me to tears reminiscing and reliving the genius of outkast. They were my favorite artists as a teenager; I’m also from Atlanta. They blew my mind then, but as a mature adult, I’m flabbergasted. Their music and creativity even more sophisticated than I understood, their artistry even more bold, courageous, and profound than I ever realized. I literally feel so honored to have grown up in their time; to have made so many memories in my youth-the most raw years of your life-to the soundtrack of Outkast. These are tears of appreciation and deep gratitude. I didn’t know you could feel such gratitude towards music, expression but I do. They hold a piece of the original me. I love you, Outkast. 😭

This song hits different today given the current times.

And the whole world loves it when you're in the news🌏

OutKast is and will always be classic but Andre 3000 was on a other level.

I'm here after Grammys 2024

Outkast has one of the sickest flow

Andre 3000 kills at the beginning

This video has a new meaning to me now that I’m older. So many subliminal messages

This beat fire as fuck bro got like a carnival vibe to it

Fun fact, killer Mike said this was his first official song. His first song won him a Grammy! Respect bro!

I still rep and listen to Outkast in 2021. That was one of the best era's EVER.

Love OutKast. This song doesn't age. It could have come out yesterday.

Tears of joy in my eyes revisiting this. The variety of the three flows, the self-ironic video, the eternal chorus... OutKast really quit at the correct moment. Kudos to them. No flaw in their entire discography.

2020!!! Still rocking this!!! Like if ya with me!!!

It's crazy how far Mike has come. Dude was just a feature rapper for the longest time and had a few low key projects here and there. Kinda cool that he stuck with it after like what, 15 years? And it finally paid off.

Ugh ART. Just ART. I live for Outkast. They were such a breath of fresh air and still are a breath of fresh air. Their work never gets old. It’s TIMELESS.

Andre is a technically skilled singer. That flattening of the second "along" takes good relative pitch and vocal control. He actively tuned it a bit but it'd take near perfect pitch to hit that flat perfectly from the onset in this key lol. Also I can't say enough how much I love their accents, as a Canadian lol. That Atlanta drawlll, boi

Andre is one of the only rappers that could be so weird and get away with it

"And the whole world loves it when ya in the news"...big facts smh

*Outkast exposing all the mindless sheep!*

Anyone rocking this in 2024!?

Awww damn! I forgot about this song!! I used to sing this all the time as a lil kid lol!

It don't hit different lol. It hits the same spots as it did when it first came out. My personal favorite OutKast song. I appreciate y'all. Thank yall for the music.

Damn man these songs bring back memories of a better time. Music will never be the same. Outkast changed music back in the early 2000s. Make a comeback Outkast, you can kill it again now.

I will never get over killer mike's verse

Killer Mike killed it...

Been thinking about OutKast a lot lately and this song popped in my head so had to hear it. OutKast is def in my top 10 if not top 5. 3k def light years ahead of his time. A true artist. Killer Mike & Big Boi bars cold and the video is beautiful. I’m 40 and OutKast was the soundtrack to some of the best yrs of my life. I feel bad for the kids today… this is music u can feel (call me an old head all you want)

I miss these guys like crazy. They just made the music industry better.

Who's back after 2024 Grammy's?

I think this song has aged so well, and very relevant to current times

Aye Killer Mike killed his whole verse. " I catch a beat running like Randy Moss" 🔥

If they don't play this at my funeral, I ain't showing up!

This used to be so crazy There used to be so much artistry in music these young folk don’t know

"The only liable limitation is yourself"

Still bumpin in 2019....where yall at?!

would have been sick in the Joker soundtrack!

Anyone in 2025???????!!!! 😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳

I'm gonna finish the show here! They did Outkast so wrong. Lame ass crowd.

We need OutkKast back!

"Whatever floats ya boat or finds ya lost remote" STILL saying this (in Andre's voice) in 2015. lol.

I used to listen to Outcast religiously back in the day, growing old sucks. Much luv from Kenya 🇰🇪

I catch a beat running like Randy Moss!!! Sheeiiitt!!!!!!

This song and video is deep. I wonder if the meaning goes over ppls heads

"Clueless like shaggy and scooby before commercial break" lmao BARS

Here it is 2023 and I'm still playin this song!!! No one compared to them!!!

You guys do know this song came out in 2001 and published on youtube 2013

This song has more meaning after 2020 for me.. people do t want to see you happy. They love it when you don’t get down.

Such a sad and eerie atmosphere this song brings especially the chorus. Would love jordan peele to use the chorus in another horror movie.

The vid is like later later

My introduction to Outkast was on Radio K in the Twin Cities. There was nothing like it at the time. Thanks Radio K!

I swear i wanna marry andre 3000

"Okay, here we go" Yeah, I'm afraid, like I'm scared as a dog But I've got a new song, and I want y'all to sing along Sing along See this is the way that we walk on a sunny day When it's rainin' inside and you're all alone All alone, yeah! 'Cause the whole world loves it when you don't get down (Bah bah-da, bah bah bah-da da!) And the whole world loves it when you make that sound (Bah bah-da, bah bah bah-da da!) And the whole world loves it when you're in the news (Bah bah-da, bah bah bah-da da!) And the whole world loves it when you sing the blues (Bah bah-da, bah bah bah-da da!) Take a little trip, hater, pack up your mind Look forward, not behind, then you'll see what you find I caught a sucker dying 'cause he thought could rhyme Now if his momma is a quarter, daughter must be a dime I gotta meet her, don't take no shorts, I don't use abbrevi- -ation, I don't even play the radio neither Only if I need to know the sports or the weather I'm a cool type of brother, but yep, your head I'll sever from the neck See ain't nothing changed, hit the stage Set a date, sucker, in battle we can engage I'll slice you, wife you, marry you, divorce you Throw the Porsche at you, is what I'm forced to do With my back against the wall, crack his back, y'all Naw, it ain't went nowhere like havin' hair with stylin' gel in it Throw a curl in it Dread that nappy shit up, throw a shell in it Whatever floats your boat, or finds your lost remote And this for them niggas workin' at the airport who got laid off I take my shades off If you look straight in my eyes, you still might see a disguise Because the whole-whole world-world 'Cause the whole world loves it when you don't get down (Bah bah-da, bah bah bah-da da!) And the whole world loves it when you make that sound (Bah bah-da, bah bah bah-da da!) And the whole world loves it when you're in the news (Bah bah-da, bah bah bah-da da!) And the whole world loves it when you sing the blues (Bah bah-da, bah bah bah-da da!) Player, I grind, my focus is crime Raw with the rhyme, I'm slick with the slime My words are diamonds dug out a mine Spit 'em, polish, look how they shine Glitter, glisten, gloss, floss I catch a beat running like Randy Moss Ride that bitch off like a brand new horse I'm rollin' my stone, gather no moss Mommy, I'm coming, I hope you get off Or rock your own boat like Aaliyah, then talk Back, back, forth, forth Get that sailor on course, course Make that track a corpse, corpse Rap, roll, utterly rocked With my mouth to the mic and my hand on my cock Cadillac OutKast, just won't stop 'Cause the whole world loves it when you don't get down (Bah bah-da, bah bah bah-da da!) And the whole world loves it when you make that sound (Bah bah-da, bah bah bah-da da!) And the whole world loves it when you're in the news (Bah bah-da, bah bah bah-da da!) And the whole world loves it when you sing the blues (Bah bah-da, bah bah bah-da da!) Turn on the TV and everything is lookin' dismal Went in the bathroom medicine cabinet, Pepto-Bismol Need it for my stomach 'cause my tummy kinda aches Like a junkie on withdrawal, fresh up off the plate Wait, back to the enemy of the state Is the Republicans or Democratic candidate? Debate, now even the black box hold the fate Clueless like Shaggy and Scooby befo' commercial break Hate, extreme prejudice, let's dismiss this If you want to, you can dub it to your hit list I know you goin' to, we in this to replenish yo' musical wish list When it come to this music, we stay relentless Pursuing all that's pursuable Doing, God-willing, all things that are doable The only liable limitation is yourself, Dre Set it on the right and I'll set it on the left, 'cause 'Cause the whole world loves it when you don't get down (Bah bah-da, bah bah bah-da da!) And the whole world loves it when you make that sound (Bah bah-da, bah bah bah-da da!) And the whole world loves it when you're in the news (Bah bah-da, bah bah bah-da da!) And the whole world loves it when you sing the blues (Bah bah-da, bah bah bah-da da!)

Andre3000 needs to come save music again. Soon.

Big Boi KILLED this!

To this day, I still say "Whatever floats your boat, or finds your lost remote." To people, and it reminds me of this song. Then I get happy and listen to it again! XD

some days i miss elementary school just for the music at that time. just roll around doin whatever sing stuff by outkast luda's older stuff or hearin anything good on the radio. i swear the transition in music around 06 or 07 messed something up

We didn't know what we had when Outkast was dropping these gems in the late 90s/early 00s. Big & Dre, come back!

Pretty sure i just ran into Andre 3000 at Walgreens and he looked at me and said "whatsup chief" At the time i was too in shock and noticed he was with his son so i didn't want to go crazy or anything but if he can read this I just wanted to let him know he made my Life. Thank you for being you Andre.

Killer Mike was riding the beat... love this song... "and the whole world loves it when you sing the blues"

Boi and 3000 should come back and show these youngsters how down south rap is done

I don't know what it is about the way andre sings that long "alone" in a minor note that resolves into a major. It's not unheard of, but it's so uncommon in that specific kind of phrase. It just triggers something primitive in my brain to release the happy chemicals. So fucking good.
