Aquemini or Stankonia?

oats · 04-17-2016, 11:34 PM

Listened to both this weekend, keep going back and forth. Which do you guys think is better?

@dancake should weigh in on this

Mr. J · 04-17-2016, 11:50 PM

Obviously Aquemini

boof · 04-18-2016, 01:50 AM

i grew up on stankonia but yeah i'd say aquemini

Mr. J · 04-18-2016, 02:17 AM

It is funny that you would mention Outkast though...

I had a hard time debating on writing to Elevators or Aquemini

but I really did enjoy Stankonia when it first came out, I was obsessed with ATLiens for the longest time.
but when you compare Stankonia to Aquemini it seems like Aquemini should always reign supreme...at least in my opinion
Gasoline Dreams, Ms Jackson, So Fresh So Clean, Spaghetti Junction & practically the whole album is great
I remember We Luv Deez Hoes, or however its spelled was in constant rotation when I allllllmost picked up a broad twice my age
Middle School was an interesting year...or was it High School...shit I cant remember...haha

But when I first heard this shit....OooooOoOoooOOoooo

time travelin
rhyme javalin
something mind unravelin...ugh

Spootie, Rosa Parks, Da Art Of Storytellin Liberation, Chonkyfire the fucking title track

smh...

Aquemini all day err day

with respect, this isn't even a question. aquemini is unequivocally their best work, and the only thing close to it (from their catalog) is ATLiens. i fuck with stankonia, though.

pancake will say roughly what i just have but swap ATLiens for aquemini.

the real question is ATLiens vs Aquimini

southernplaylistic is also a classic to me, but it's slightly behind those two.

as for stankonia, it is ok. for sure their least playable. I also don't think it aged well. Spagetti Junction is my shit though.

oats · 04-18-2016, 09:21 PM

man, maybe it's just me, but listening to them back to back this weekend made it hard to pick. haven't listened to ATLiens in a while though, I'll give it a spin.

kannon · 04-19-2016, 03:07 AM

I always edged ATLiens over Aquemini. But I get when people say Aquemini is better.

This is the first time I've even heard Stankonia in the conversation.

oats · 04-19-2016, 04:39 AM

I think people are sleeping on Stankonia, man. it has more pop sensibilities, but it's a damn near flawless album.

Ghost1 · 04-19-2016, 08:31 AM

I also like stankonia? Internet y u so strange?

Fat titties turn to teardrops as fat ass turns to flab
Sores that was open wounds eventually turn to scab
Trees bright and green turn yellow brown
Autumn caught 'em, see all them leaves must fall down
Growing old.

Mr. J · 04-19-2016, 11:53 AM

myintrotoletyouknow is such a beast track though..ugh

trap · 04-19-2016, 11:55 AM
