I forgot Idlewild. Christ, that was such a bad way to end things.

When was the last time you listened to Nos. 2, 3 and 4, though? I had that above Stankonia and maybe even Aquemini when I was in my all-rap phase in high school, but as I branched out I realized how brilliant Aquemini and Stankonia are.

I listened to the discography about a week ago. I went through a whole year of high school listening to OutKast 50% of the time I listened to music.

Southern has some of their best songs, period. You can say it's generic southern rap, but if that's the case sign me up. Aquemini is just a touch uneven, a couple songs I just skip. Stankonia, too. I always felt Stankonia was a touch overrated. Great album, 9/10, but slightly overrated. I'd give the first three on the list legitimate 10's.

Here's what I mean by "generic Southern rap": It doesn't push the boundaries the same way the other stuff does. SPCM was the last time OutKast sounded like any other group. Goodie Mob's Soul Food was a better extrapolation on the sound, in my opinion. Yes, it was consistent and had some absolute bangers on it. It's a great car album. But it's safe and predictable, at least compared to other OutKast material.

But I do agree that Stankonia can be a little inflated for its huge hits. The last few tracks are a bit gratuitous and self-indulgent. Aquemini, to me, is perfect.

Also, if Andre 3000 ever made an actual rap solo album (at least 20 rap verses by him, let's say), it might be the greatest thing ever.
