this is the thread yes

not trolling here, but when/how/why is "SpottieOttieDopaliscious" a thing? I had to look it up on YouTube just to know what Kast song it was... :/

bcuz its a beloved outkast single

smh

according to wikipedia it wasn't a single?

(that's one i def don't remember from the time, and didn't hear until i finally copped aquemini about 5 years ago, and it's good but not really a stand-out even on its album imo)

idk those horns kinda make it stand out

i think my favs on aquemini are rosa parks/mamacita/liberation, but ehhh i've never been, like, obsessed with outkast

http://www.discogs.com/OutKast-Spottieottiedopaliscious/release/219553

its absolutely a standout

yall are trying to second guess me here -- as w/ check the rhime & juicy, i think this is absolutely a great representative of their careers

mamacita

nononononononoNONONONONONONONONO

just... no

smgdh

how is a 7 minute funk track with barely any rapping representative of Kast's career (btw, I 1000000% agree with you on Juicy and Check The Rime)

are we going to pick a different song from the pfork list each week to debate whether its really truly great/relevant/canonical/familiar? why is this coming up NOW?

wouldn't harassing scott pl to release the files get to the bottom of the mystery faster than finding another thing that makes you go hmmmm?

is 'things that make you go hmmm' really truly great/relevant/canonical/familiar?

"Things That Make You Go Hmmm" is just a "Bust a Move" rewrite.

dunno about you guys but the diverse kids at my high school totally jammed 'things that make you go hmmm' all the time

what about the converse kids?

Hey guys, I just listened to Juicy for the first time, on Youtube. It was pretty good.

because they were weirdos who did tracks like epic 7 minute funk jams w/ spoken word stories of being young & coming of age in ATL

fwiw my vote was 'skew it on the bbq' above this but this was much preferable to the more trad sounding stuff (bridge between 'elevators' & 'bob') and a much cooler choice imo than 'rosa parks'

In what world is "BOB" trad sounding??

that's not what he was saying I don't think but yeah whiney otm lol @ "spottie" being representative of early kast

it's as representative as anything

there's no fucking rapping on it you dumb dipshit

"revolution no. 9 by the beatles is representative of the beatles because it's a DETOUR IN A CAREER FULL OF DETOURS WHOOOAaaaoaooaaahttp://i298.photobucket.com/albums/mm278/chri7stopher/scanners.gif!"

http://images.uulyrics.com/cover/i/incognito/album-positivity.jpg

in fairness, it's somewhat representative of The Love Below

which came out in the '00s

your irony detector is either broken or just completely turned off

got it.

there's no fucking rapping on it you dumb dipshit

this sort of proves the point

which isn't to say that it's the MOST representative, but i would say that it is 'very representative'

like how can you not listen to big boi's part in that song & not say it's representative of big boi

er, minus the first 'not' there

Because like three dozen dope tracks from 1994-1999 have Big Boi RAPPING on them!

Antwan André Patton (born February 1, 1975), better known by his stage name Big Boi, is an American rapper, song-writer, record producer and actor, best known for being a member of American hip hop duo OutKast alongside André 3000.

unless you think Spottie is extra AMERICAN?

calm down, kaka poopie pants!

HEY GUYS SORRY TO INTERRUPT BUT DO ANYONE KNOW IF "RETARDEDEST" IS A WORD THANK IN ADVANCE

-KANTLIPS

don't think so kantlips, sorry

Type O wz robbed.

spottie ottie is a dope song that has spoken word rapping imo
& whiney u are a doof

hey, what's this song that won our very own aquemini poll? how unrepresentitive!

Outkast poll #3: Aquemini

really, who gives a damn what's representitive anyway? it's not a best artists of the 90s poll.

loooooool

i agree, but we were talking about whether it was 'representative' or not cuz deej said it was

still sounds representative to me -- conceptually, artistically, not exactly close to their most out-there shit.

and its way closer in vibe feel concept & execution to the stuff they did when they were younger than 'the love below'

dudes ... sometimes you rap like THIS, and sometimes you rap like THAT
