In my opinion, I love outkast, andre 3000 more than big boi. I think adre is very different and has a uniqueness about himself. Lyrically, he can more than hold his own. He is the definition of hip-hop in this so called new music era. Heck, if it wasn't for them, I probably wouldn't be believing in hip-hop anymore.
Oh yeah, I didn't think that everyone on here was suppossed to agree on everything, so why is someone called wack because they have an opinion? If everyone felt the same about everything there would be no use of having different rappers/singers and such. Learn to embrace differences of opinion. If they called him lyrically blessed, what is the problem?
So if I said Rakim was lyrically blessed, that's a problem too huh..??? LOL

Andre Is a lyrical beast take a look at "Elevators (Me and You)" lyrics. Also "Return Of The G" and "Aquemini (both from the Aquemini album). Also there's a lot of other hot verses from him. IMO Andre, Ludacris and Z-Ro are the most rhyme-wise versatile guys in the south. Scarface is a lyrical genious in storytelling.

Gotta take Andre 3K, dude is so resourceful. That pronounced, for the better component of this decade I do have self belief massive Boi has been doing his ingredient. even even with the undeniable fact that Speakerboxxx wasn't as formidable because of the fact the affection below, IMO i assumed it improve into the extra consistent in high quality out of the two factors. additionally with the launch of Sir Lucious, it exhibits that he can unquestionably do it without 3 stacks. BQ: Beanie Sigel BQ2: massive Boi

In my opinion suga, they are unique in their delivery and their style. What makes them special is the way they get a song out ya know and they always rock it no matter what the subject matter. As far as Andre 3000 is concerned the dude is fly period he has created his own swagger and for that alone he deserves his props suga.
Peace!!

brwn_sug and plymouth, you guys stole my lists, lol. I agree with both of you!!!! Rep for them and let em know. Them boyz in the south can do it as well!!!!!
EDIT:
I agree with the person who said he was lyrically blessed. That person is entitled to their opinion, so don't call people wack cause they are passionate about their music. Maybe music hasn't affected you in that way.
Source(s): music lover - Anonymous1 decade ago
imo, they're a lot like tribe. They hold it down but will never be in the top 5 (lyrically) at any given time. But the music they make is so good that it doesnt really matter. They aren't that lyrical but they're not in my top 20 rhyme wise. But like i said, their music is better than a lot of good hip hop out there, and its all about the music.
*edit* sigh... wack fans really hurt these discussions.... Andre aint lyrically blessed. He's good and he can flow, but you cant really compare him to other dudes like Rakim, Nas, Biggie....
