    There i said it, my confession.

    So i been tryin to get into Outkast for years but for some reason it has been difficult. As a youngin I bumped their debut and checked their other albums but all of them are like a blur to me, Atliens, Aquemini, Stankonia... I enjoy a lot of songs, their hits ofc, but idk if its becaue their albums are sooo bloated wit songs, skits, features of guys I never heard of or because their crashing crazy flow, but their albums dont hold my attention for long

    Thing is i like experimental s---, and i know they are great rappers wit great lyrics, i also loved Big Bois solo debut so...

    Any suggestion? Which album should I re-try? I am relistenin to Stankonia rn...

    in terms of personal favorites for me I'd rank them:
    Aquemini
    Southernplayalistic
    Stankonia
    ATLiens
    Speakerboxxx/Love Below

    But the first four you can really shuffle in any order and not be wrong.

    What's some Outkast songs you've heard and do like? You heard this song?

    Sucks that you can't enjoy such a great group

    Their first four albums are all essential

    Aquemini is my undisputed favourite from Kast.

    Only listen to their best hits nobody really listens to the albums. Most people just say they are goat and they repost what other say because they are scared that the dustheads attack them.

    Big Boi is obviously in the top 5 for most underrated artists across all genres

    As for OutKast, I have to agree with Poop Dogg:
    Their highs are great but I've never been able to fall in love with their entire projects (even after trying several times). They were a little before my time, though, so that plays a factor.

    I should revisit boomiverse cuz I could never get into it.

    Sir Lucious Leftfoot is a classic tho and Vicious Lies is a solid follow up. h--- even Big Grams is decent lol

    Hot take: Speakerboxxx/The Love Below is s---.

    Everything before that though is great and Big Boi's solos have been amazing.
