These losers are becoming one of the most popular people in america`s culture . What is so good about them ? The ANdre guy cant sing for shit .Look the way he dresses , just a total mf , and people think it is cool

I've never liked that kind of music, but I have to be honest and say that Outkast is one of those which actually is pretty good.
I hated "Hey ya" at first, but now I kind of dig it

I have nothing against Outkast, and they're not loosers.

Elevation did a reconstruction of Outkast - Hey Ya, and well...it's DOPPPPEEE.

I believe it's going to be on Gabriel & Dresden's upcoming mix CD.

Is outkast that one black dude?

Posted by noikeee on Jul-12-2004 18:22:

ppl usually refer them as some sort of great original band that stays away from the norms of hip-hop. i respect them for not going totally blingbling+ho's+gun's like everyone else, but i don't like their music. maybe i just don't like any hip-hop at all, be it good or bad.

outkast is made up of two "black dudes"...one is formerly known as Andre 2000, now known as Andre 3000 or jus Andre, and the other members name is Big Boi...

and i like outkast, they still pioneers in my book..

Still , that Andre guy pisses me off for what he wears. He dresss up like Santa Claus.

Is there something wrong with Santa Claus?

Those green clothes he wears is kind of cool somehow, but yeah, sometimes he does look odd.... well mostly actually.

It's far better to see an artist in the hip-hop scene dressing like a nutter than being a "straight-up thug." Outkast is actually pretty talented, Andre played everything except the Bass on Hey Ya, that's impressive.

They always are different with every record as well as being critically acclaimed. When you can appeal to both audiences then it helps greatly.

Definitly originators & two very talented people. ATLiens is one of my favirote hip-hop albums, for hip hop the album is extreamly eclectic. Also back then, there was nothing like it.

IMO, outkast are pioneers strictly because they are willing to venture into new frontiers of sound and ideals...Making "hey yah" was a great step forward in bridging the former gap between black and whites in regard to music...Yes rock and roll is for everyone, but when you think of rock and roll, you are more proned to think of white guys and gals twistin and moving on a dance floor...atleast thats what tv and media showed and broadcasted constantly forty years ago...outkast, besides making catchy tunes and melodies, is taking it to the next level and changing the former ideals and preconceived notions of what a music genre or scene should look like...rock and roll is for everyone and outkast is proving it by taking a hybrid form of hip hop and fusing it with guitar riffs and bells jingling to create a modern hip hop/eclectic sound...i am more impressed by this aspect of their music than the outfits they wear or the words that they sing necessarily...the video is an exact representation of what outkast feels society should be, but quite isn't yet...this is why i believe outkast are pioneers in what they are tryin to accomplish...

I like a few outkast songs. My fav song is speedballin. They are very original for rappers and i respect that. I don't care how people dress i guess, it's not like you haven't seen wierder looking people at raves

your ignorance amazes me....OUTKAST is a great duo, they sorta helped Hip Hop into what it is today..before u make any judgements..TRY TO GET YOUR PATHETIC mind to see past the way they dress and start looking @ their style, cuz i can tell u, they are unique..listen to their old stuff..they were amazin
..IM just backing em up...cuz they really are good entertainers and artists..

Posted by WhooCares on Jul-12-2004 22:07:

at least he doesnt dress like every other mother fucking rapper out there

Now, if most rappers dressed like "Santa Claus", it'd be ok :P

And obliquely speaking, is there something to Flava Flav's clock?

They are going against the grain and expressing themselves.

Like 'em or dislike 'em, you can't mistake Outkast for another act. And it helps to know your music roots when talking about them. *cough* Prince is just one of many names they draw their lineage from *cough*

I applaud Outkast for being themselves and being unique -- a piece of music like "Bombs Over Bagdad" is nothing short of a masterpiece. Hello, drum 'n' bass gospel choir? And they have strong respect for a variety of artists in EDM too. "Hey Ya!" is a catchy, fun song.

For crying out loud (to cop an O'Neillism), they are entertainers. Far worse things to raise the flag about this world, like abandoned pets and starving humans.
