CRITIC REVIEWS
I don’t know how to start out this review, so uhhhh... Let’s just get into it

MASTAPEECE!
*EDIT: I DON'T KNOW HOW. BUT IT'S BECOME ONE OF MY FAVOURITE ALBUMS. B.O.B. IS ONE OF MY FAVOURITE SONGS OF ALL TIME. THIS IS BIG BOI'S BEST PERFORMANCE. ANDRE KILLS IT EVERYTIME HE'S ON THE MIC. WHAT THE HELL?
Underappreciated classic, both Big Boi and 3000 play off each other well, very rarely overshadowing one another on the project. I swear I could listen to these guys rap all day. The personality, the production that I can genuinely call experimental and alienated. Never a ... read more

20+ Songs? Yup
70+ minutes? I wish it were longer
Does it feel like a chore? Not once
Stankonia is a sublime funk/hip-hop moment that proves just because something is long doesn't mean it is terrible. OutKast push their incredible sound to new commercial heights. It is bursting at the seams with original songs, funny skits, and excellent guest spots.

Good
Being the first Outkast record I've listened to, I can't say I'm disappointed! With it's astounding collection of beats and very memorable bars from Big Boy and Andre 3000, 'Stankonia' is an interesting and eclectic listening experience from the Georgia hip-hop duo.
Color: Black
FAV TRACKS: Ms. Jackson, ?, Gasoline Dreams, Gangsta Shit, Humble Mumble, Snappin' & Trappin', B.O.B.
LEAST FAV: Spaghetti Junction
