Product Description
Amazon.ca
With their fourth-album, Outkast invoke the rebel Southern spirit to full effect. Realising there is something rotten in the state of hip hop, the Atlantan local heroes have staked out their own territory, Stankonia, a Utopian republic representing the best of the Dirty South. As if in tribute to Funkadelic's America Eats Its Young , the album cover finds Dre and Big Boi staring out in front of a black and white stars and stripes. Inside they waste no time in revealing their radical agenda. "Don't everyone like the smell of gasoline?" hollers Andre 3000 on opener "Gasoline Dreams", as he sets fire to the constitution over a scorching electric guitar. The single "B.O.B." (aka "Bombs Over Baghdad") is Outkast's state-of-the-union address, a rousing gothic gospel number that advocates a "power music electric revival" as it approaches the speed of Reprazent's "Who Told You" and the epic feel of "Bohemian Rhapsody". On "Miss Jackson", they assume the role of exemplary southern Gentleman begging forgiveness from their hoochie's mama over a backing with spooky shades of Prince's "When Doves Cry". Elsewhere they eschew tradition (on tracks like "?", "Snappin & Trappin" and the B-Real-guesting "Xplosion") to invest their dirty funk with a distinctly avant-garde afro-sheen. Come election day, just sniff this stank to inhale freedom. --Chris Campion

This sint my favourite OutKast Cd but its up there. I loved all of their stuff. This is an amaaaaazing CD. I am so tired from writing a long review for ATLiens, go get that and this right now. This CD's stand out tracks are B.O.B. That was voted best OutKast song. The lyrics in Ms. Jackson are so good. Don't be a hater because OutKast is different from what you're used to. What are you scared of? Think you will lose your cool if you stop listening to 50 Cent? Oh yeah. Spaghetti Junction is Craaaaazy too. Alright I'm singing off. I hope I helped you make a choice. The right choice would be to pick this and all the other OutKast CDs up right now!!!!!!!

This album may take you some time getting used to because its really not in the same unison as their other three classics Atliens, Southernplayastic, and Aquemini (Get this these first so you can hear the real Outkast sound). If you have the first three then you?ll get the feeling that this is a turn left from other three classics as far as song structure and content. Then you may want to throw it away, but give it another listen and trust me the songs will start growing on you. My advice is if you do not like their previous releases then do not get it! But if you do, and like Andre?s singing, like me, then give it a listen.
P.S. On this album you can see where Andre started his singing career.

My review is true
This is a great album to show how outkast is not the same on every album. There songs are a little different from their first two cd's but its just as good. Read more

Outkast = originality.
I haven't listened to rap that much ever since I delved into the world of music where artists actually sing and use instruments, but Outkast is the exception to the rule. Read more

Best record since One Nation
A true tribute to the spirit of 70's Funkadelic and Parliament, this record is to hip-hop what One Nation Under a Groove was to disco/funk, what Band of Gypsies was to psychedelic... Read more

Amazing
Near perfect, as simple as that. Plagued by one or two filler tracks and maybe 1 skit to many, you always have the skip button to get on to the other great 15 tracks. Read more

A step down from aquemini...or perhaps just a step left...
Further divulging in their own techno-enhanced beats and going much MUCH farther left than their Chronic-ized beats of yesteryear... Read more

Wow!!
Before I start my review, let me say this. This is the worst CD Outkast has released. And that's saying a lot considering it is still worth 4. Read more
