Speakerboxxx Let's start with Big Boi's Speakerboxxx which is more of a general hip hop album than Andre's disc. It isn't as experimental as some of Outkast's previous material but there is a fair bit of funk here as we have seen on Outkast's past albums. Killer Mike joins Outkast again and it makes for two quality tunes, with 'Bust' being my pick from the two. Like many hip hop albums I don't see the need for the skits here - it's a minor issue but one that wasn't needed. A few tunes are close to filler, but it's very consistent with a few great tunes like GhettoMusick. ★★★★ Best Tracks: GhettoMusick, The Way You Move [[CD 2]], Bust, Church, Reset, Last Call The Love Below Andre's album on the other hand is something a lil unexpected, and perhaps explains why the artists are separated for this release. This album shows Andre to be the more creative and diverse of the two (if we didn't know that already), as he creates a high quality R&B/pop/hip hop/funk album. I probably find this to be the disc I go back to more years on, with it being unique and there being more that I love on it. ★★★★☆ Best Tracks: Happy Valentine's Day, Spread, She Lives in My Lap, Behold a Lady, Dracula's Wedding, A Life in the Day Much of Outkast's albums are somewhat hit or miss for me except for their debut, so this album is a welcome change where I enjoy a larger percentage of what they gave us. And given it's two discs, Andre and Big Boi do a good job with each disc. There aren't the classics of the B.O.B.'s and the like, but for 35 tracks, most work very well.
