Idlewild

Discography #16 complete

I honestly didn't expect much from this album, but atleast I expected it to be somewhat decent, obviously since it's OutKast, the duo who has made plenty of legendary Hip Hop albums before. The content I got from this album was a lot worse than what I was hoping to end up with.
Very sad ending to OutKast's discography. They could've made a timeless project for their last one, but it ended up as their absolute worst album. Maybe they'll come together for one last time and make something better than this, but I highly doubt that.
None of the songs on this album really surprised me, it's quite funny that the best song on this album doesn't out-do the worst song on some of their previous albums.
But seriously, every song on this album is below good, most of them are just mediocre, some of them are barely listenable. It's a very mixed album pretty much.
I'd say more about the album if it wasn't so boring and repetitive for pretty much the entire runtime of it. So yeah, that's about it for the album, now a bit about OutKast's discography.
Obviously, everything else made before this are timeless projects, all of them being legendary and infleuntial in their own way. Southernplayalisticadillacmuzik was very inspiring for the Southern Hip Hop subgenre, and it's widely known as the first album of that subgenre to reach mainstream status, so they were already pretty hyped ever since they started their career.
ATLiens isn't much different from their previous project, but it definetely has some better lyricism, production and just more bangers in general.
Aquemini - their best project, and just one of the best Hip Hop albums in general. There isn't a better way to describe it for short - it's a masterpiece. The lyricism is at their absolute peak, with songs like Da Art of Storytellin, Pt. 1 and Rosa Parks being the best on this album.
I don't even talk too much about the rest of their albums, those three that I mentioned were honestly the three best from them anyway, MAYBE Stankonia out-doing Southernplayalisticadillacmuzik.
So yeah, this album was mid, but the great rest of their discography makes up for it.
