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... :/

you cant see me markers (deej), Wednesday, 15 September 2010 12:13 (thirteen years ago) link

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)

لوووووووووووووووووووول (lex pretend), Wednesday, 15 September 2010 12:15 (thirteen years ago) link

idk those horns kinda make it stand out

just sayin, Wednesday, 15 September 2010 12:16 (thirteen years ago) link

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

لوووووووووووووووووووول (lex pretend), Wednesday, 15 September 2010 12:17 (thirteen years ago) link

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

you cant see me markers (deej), Wednesday, 15 September 2010 12:22 (thirteen years ago) link

mamacita

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)

Whiney G. Weingarten, Wednesday, 15 September 2010 12:45 (thirteen years ago) link

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?

da croupier, Wednesday, 15 September 2010 12:48 (thirteen years ago) link

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?

da croupier, Wednesday, 15 September 2010 12:50 (thirteen years ago) link

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

history mayne, Wednesday, 15 September 2010 12:52 (thirteen years ago) link

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

jaymc, Wednesday, 15 September 2010 13:12 (thirteen years ago) link

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

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'

you cant see me markers (deej), Wednesday, 15 September 2010 17:24 (thirteen years ago) link

In what world is "BOB" trad sounding??

this sort of proves the point

J0rdan S., Wednesday, 15 September 2010 20:15 (thirteen years ago) link

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

J0rdan S., Wednesday, 15 September 2010 20:18 (thirteen years ago) link

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

J0rdan S., Wednesday, 15 September 2010 20:19 (thirteen years ago) link

er, minus the first 'not' there

J0rdan S., Wednesday, 15 September 2010 20:19 (thirteen years ago) link

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.

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

Outkast poll #3: Aquemini

The Reverend, Thursday, 16 September 2010 00:31 (thirteen years ago) link

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