Tight!!!!!

i dig it!

word to the bird.

yep yep

love the way its edited. good to finally see it. lot of convo about hip-hop that day. stankonia is still better than atliens!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I`ve been waiting for this. Good to see a realistic hip hop video again.

“love the way its edited. good to finally see it. lot of convo about hip-hop that day. stankonia is still better than atliens!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

Do we have to go track for track again?

^^^^^^Don’t ever say that again. LOL

As Outkast fan numero uno, the only acceptable album to list as being better than ATLiens is Southernplayalistic…

1a) Southernplayalistic
1b) ATLiens
3a) Aquemini
3b) Stankonia

stankonia IS better than atliens! what?!?!?!

my bad. i am in agreement that stankonia is > atliens.

on what planet? u buggin’

now, i feel bad. my comment might actually aid in discrediting the future comments of die hard, female hip hop fans everywhere when “best of” situations arise. : (

regardless (irregardless, if you’re nasty), “red velvet” and “we luv deez hoez” rule! stankonia was a movement! “…don’t even bang unless you plan to hit somethin’…”

apparently, like denise huxtable, “i walk alone.”

Look, I loved Stankonia. I bought that bitch on CD and vinyl (and still gots the promos too). The poster from Fader will go up on a wall at the crib, as soon as I get a wall that doesn’t have boxes posted up on it. Red Velvet, Gangsta Shit, Slum Beautiful (my favorite song on the alubum), Humble Mumble. Don’t get it twisted…I loves that album. But that should put into perspective how highly ATLiens (and Southernplayalistic…) should be regarded. ATLiens was a true movement. It is near blasphemy to argue that Stankonia was better than ATLiens. As a matter of fact, I’ll even redo my list:

1a) Southernplayalistic
1b) ATLiens
3) Stankonia
4) Aquemini

And then everything else…most of which I’ve tried to forget even came out. This list is final and not open to discussion.

Don’t worry, our current president walks alone too. People that are dead wrong usually do. :)

oooooooooooh, DBDR! the current president? “this list is final and not open to discussion?” where’s #2?

i don’t know you, but it is obvious that you are too many things! (smiles)

DBDR hath spoken! methinks i have lost this bout. i concede (with upturned lips)! LOL

How did it become a discussion about outkast? Well anyway I agree,Stankonia is better than ATLiens

Since there is a “co-number 1″ there cannot be number two, hence skipping straight to 3.

And to clear up any confusion, when I say “the current president”, I am referring to Shrub, not Obama. Obama doesn’t become president until January.

my bad. i had already forgotten about “dubya” (bush…shrub…i get it. you’re so clever.), so i took you to be referring to obama. i guess you told me (psyche!).

anyway…what matters most is that ILL ONE the Beatsmith is correct on two counts. a) “summer so good” was in fact the orignal focus of this post, and it IS good. my neighborhood (featured in the video) rocks. b) stankonia is > atliens. scoff if you must!

blame it all on the “son of the morning…”

thanks again…

oops! counts…as in 1,2 not a,b…

i should probably go and lay it down…

See what you started, CJ?

When you watch the video around the 13th time, you should see hologram cameos of Outkast, but tilt yo head head to left & slightly squint.
I like the video though. Good work fellas.

man this song JAMZ…it does feel like a summertime song and they speakin the truth..dress lightly because it is hot as hell down here. AT LAST! Houston is putting out some true hip-hop..what up KAY! Oh yea HOW did a discussion about OutKast turn up on this group of comments.

To get back on topic. Yes, the video and the song are both great. Love the fact that so many talented people in Houston are working together.

And now to get back off topic:

Joy: I wish I had come up with Shrub on my own (http://www.amazon.com/Shrub-Short-Happy-Political-George/dp/0375757147)…

And anybody over the age of 30 that says Stankonia is better than ATLiens should have their membership revoked in the “grown folks have sense” club.

*Rolls up newspaper, tells kids to get off his damn yard.*

THE VIDEOKING HATH SPOKEN. two for atliens and THREE for stankonia. Next issue obama or mccain???????? Waitaminit thats been solved.

and i just turned 29. membership is still active. (24 clock ticking……….)

(warning: more content totally unrelated to “summer so good”)

Lord knows that i was ready to let it all go, but…

on the cool…atliens just was not all that to me. i overlooked that cd like i overlooked that short man trying to solicit my phone number whilst at the corner store. “elevators” was clever, “decatur psalm” was cool, etc., but stankonia is my sh*t. it would be a shame to “cross” you, DBDR, so i am really glad that i am not yet over 30. you can unroll that newspaper.

btw…DBDR. i was wrong. i have seen your face before! in fact, i have pictures of your face! (no stalker)

now, chew on this:

outkast :: the beatles
goodie mob :: simon & garfunkel

peace…

Man……we had so much fun making this video…..
{awkward silence}

it looked like fun, too.

kudos to you dudes because the alpha and omega of this sh* is that “summer so good” (song and video) are the sh*t.

If I had known that you thought “ATLiens just was not all that to me”, I definitely would have not invited you to the wedding. Or hung out with you at the Sade concert. Or dapped you up on every occasion that I’ve seen you. And you’re not 30 yet? D–do I need to call shenanigans?

Growing Old is one of my favorite songs ever. Answer me this–is the worst song on ATLiens better/worse than the worst song on Stankonia (glances over at Xplosion). You already know my answer.

One thing I will give you, ATLiens is a much darker (even angrier) album than Stankonia, which can make it not as enjoyable a listen at times. But I still love that album. Just not as much as Southernplayalistic. Andre’s verse on D.E.E.P. is still one of my favorites (short list: Mos Def on Thieves in the Night, Bun on Murder, Pos on I Am I Be, Monche on Bring It On…)

Back to the video–it definitely looked like fun. I’d just like an excuse to wear shorts again. I’m damn near opaque at this point–I’m starting to look like one of the folks that caught that shit on I Am Legend.

Right now, i’d bump The Love Below before I bumped either one of those.

Kay’s “Dada” video should hit this week.

look, DBDR. let’s not allow atliens vs. stankonia to destroy what we had. you must continue to dap me up or down! “i still really, really love you…love is stronger than pride” (and atliens). : )

btw…i am at the “a woman never tells her age” stage of my life, which is confirmation that i am in fact over 30. lol

…and i prefer the term “tomfoolery” to be used in reference to my actions. (smiles)

now…let us all go back and meditate on the “summer so good” video – and- pray that DBDR gets some sun on those “light-skinded” legs!

peace…

the vid gets better every time i whatch it

Dope lyrics, dope beat, dope video… Much respect from Dallas…

i can’t forget about their show on hip hop kemp 2003, it was dope

cool shit

a new golden era perspective, for sure
