Ok, I admit it... I m one of those people who never paid much attention to the Outkast until their latest album(s) boasted the two widely-appealing, overplayed singles, Hey Ya! and The Way You Move . Even though the two over-hyped lead singles didn t appeal to me at first, they sure have grown on me (especially the latter), slowly but surely. I still wasn t sure if the album would be worth the buy, but after reading so many positive reviews on this two-disc album, I decided to join the club, and purchased Speakerboxxx/The Love Below my first Outkast album (or hip-hop album for that matter).

In a study conducted by the National Canine Defense League (NCDL), Dr. Deborah Wells states: It is well established that music can influence our moods. Classical music, for example, can help to reduce levels of stress, whilst grunge music can promote hostility, sadness, tension and fatigue. It is now believed that dogs may be as discerning as humans when it comes to musical preference. The NCDL s study found that among impounded dogs, the ones that had listened to classical music were quieter, calmer, and generally well-behaved, while dogs who were subjected to heavy metal music tended to be..

"Ain't no uno, we're a duo, deuce, dos, two, a pair," Antwan "Big Boi" Patton raps about his Outkast partner-in-rhyme Andre 3000 on Speakerboxxx, his half of Outkast's double-disc, Janus-ized opus Speakerboxxx/The Love Below; on another track, he asserts that "Outkast is everlastin'/ not clashin', not at all/ but see my n*gga went to do a little actin'." Well, Mr. Patton, thanks for assuring us all. Uh, so when y'all gonna show up on the same disc again? Come on, you know you wanted to know. Where was Outkast gonna go next? After two albums of smart Dirty South G-funk (ATLiens and...

Can somebody explain to me why this hasn't happened before? Perhaps it's the scary implications that make last year's release of Outkast's Speakerboxxx / The Love Below such a unique event. As the majority of the world no doubt knows at this point, Outkast's newest release is actually a double CD, where each CD is basically a solo album for one of Outkast's two primary members; Big Boi gets Speakerboxx, where Andre (Ice Cold!) 3000 gets The Love Below. Obviously, this throws gas on the proverbial fire of the rumor mill. "They're going to break up!" "They're not speaking to each other!" "Andre.

If there was ever a time to open your mind along with your ears on an album from a commercial rap group, this is the time. In what is a risk as far as album sales are concerned for Outkast, rather than do Stankonia II, they come back with a double album of their solo records. Confused? Don't be. Andre 3000 and Big Boi recorded solo discs and they put them together as one double disc CD. The reason it is risky is because as Outkast, they have been more popular after every record they've released. They're true fans will still probably be there. But people who just listened to their latest album.
