    Aye, ? is up with ? talkin bout Kast having 3 straight classics like Stankonia wasn't dope as ? !?

    The first five albums all classic

    Southernplayalisticcadillacmuzik
    ATLiens
    Aquemini
    Stankonia
    Speakerboxxx/The Love Below

    All straight classics

    NOBODY else in Hip Hop has as many Classics as OutKast
    ...NOBODY.
    They may have a good number of Great albums, but not classics
    But they "Disqualified " lol smh

    I like Outkast agree the first 3 were great but

    I SWEAR NGAZ WILL FIND ANY REASON TO HATE ON KAST/3000

    AINT A GROUP ALIVE, MADE, CONSTRUCTED THAT CAN ? WITH KAST AND YALL KNOW IT

    It's called being from the South fam. If Kast was from Brooklyn there would be no arguments.

    This is true. If they was from brooklyn yall southern cats wouldnt be putting him at #1

    2 dope ass groups, but Outkast has alot more versatility. I can listen to Outkast any day, but I go to the Roots when I want that specific vibe.

    If they was from BK they probably wouldn't be anywhere near as dope.

    Outkast would dope regardless of where they are from. And 3k is an amazing emcee. But damn southern cats dickride the ? out of him. It makes sense though. No hate in my observation.

    I aint watch the video. And no one had to say that. Im saying that. And all im saying is if yall gonna claim that only reason we not universally putting 3k as the goat is cause he not ny, then I the reverse has to he true too. Not even saying you said that, cause i dont remember if you did. I did see people say that all over this thread this.

    I didn't cause I don't think he is but east coast(north east) bias is a fact in the media in more things than just rap. Everybody not from that region knows this.

    Northerners of that era weren't exactly tryna embrace new sounds. That's why I said they probably wouldn't have been as dope. You seriously believe Northernmobsterlistictimberlandmuzik would be anywhere near as funky as what we were blessed with?

    This ? wack tho. I still ? Outkast over Roots but this beat trash. A notch above Standardized Slaughter beatwise

    ? that ? is hard as ? , what you talkin bout?

    It's not sir.......

    Being that you only listen to Little Brother and Backpack music, I can't take anyone's opinion serious if their musical taste isn't well rounded.

    My ? you listen ? ? anthems and think Gucci Mane is a lyricist. Your opinion on everything hiphop is ?

    Lol sureee...all I'm saying is, you like a Certain type of music and that's fine.
    The ? you shared that you listen to seemed to be all Backpack and boom bap ? and not a Variety of things. Wasn't a versatile selection of music at all and I'm saying that you for sure will have a biased opinion on different types of music outside of your norm...

    Let's not act like Northerners will just openly accept a Southerner as the GOAT rapper being that Hip Hop originated in New York...that's a Tough pill to swallow being that they put out artists such as Nas and Biggie and the fact that Most Southern music is Trash AF now. You also have to consider that OutKast may be the most Non-traditional, unorthodox Hip Hop act of all time.
    You think an NY ? just gon give a Kilt wearing/ football pads-no shirt wearing ? the World Heavyweight champion title.?!? Man hell nah. The GOAT gotta have Timberlands on "B"...

    7/8 pages and nobody posted a Roots record. This is ridiculous.

    Being real, I love Outkast but Speakerboxx/Love Below is basura and I can't say that about ANY Roots album.

    Outkast is more popular and maybe a little more artistic but that doesn't mean "better."

    Outkast's legacy is well-deserved. I respect their catalog and what they mean to the south. With that said, The Roots are miles ahead of Outkast.

    We can compare classics: let's put Southernplayalistic beside Illadelph Halflife; Atliens beside Things Fall Apart; and/or Aquemini beside How I Got Over. I think musically The Roots have more to offer as far as range and content and their catalog is richer. Black Thought is top 5, Andre and Big Boi are maybe Top 20.
