  • Idling In a Speakerboxxx…

    Sep 11 '06
    Pros: More of the Speakerboxx/Love Below formula
    Cons: still a group doing mostly solo efforts

    Summary: Andre Benjamin (Andre 3000) and Antawn Patton (Big Boi) have evolved into one of the most well known hip hop groups ever. Their double CD album Speakerboxxx/The Love Below has sold over 11 million copies and yet the rumors of their break up continue. On ...

  • Idlewild: Shattered Unity

    Aug 22 '06
    Pros: A few standout tracks; Group members actually appear on songs together
    Cons: Disjointed feel; Andre's weakness as a singer; Big Boi's inability to follow the musical theme

    Summary: Ever since the release of their debut album Southernplayalisticadillacm uzik, Outkast have been one of the most pioneering acts in hip-hop. With their original combination of Dirty South and G-Funk music that eventually became influenced by funk, ...
