    looking at their body of work, not even kanye can compete...Andre rapping skills...and i aint as rich as @WPG in rap knowledge...but i believe they made speakerboxx style before any other rapper which open doors in my opinion to 808s and other forms of rap

    agree?

    I said this in a conversation with @Lamont yesterday: I think Outkast is the greatest act in rap history. It's hard to pin down "best rapper," but no single person, duo, or group has ever made a better catalog of rap music.

    Koolo, which albums of theirs have you listened/not listened to?

    Uh I don't actually remember, maybe he does. But yeah, I think Aquemini is a top-three album ever (maybe the best) and that they're the GOATs. Big Boi is also better than Andre on some of their best songs.
