Andre was always seen as eccentric...but so is every artistical genius.....Him & Big Boi were doing avant garde stuff that nobody else was doing back then, which made Outkast to this day one of the most unique musical duo of all times.
What is wrong with people who say "You know what I am saying" every 3 seconds though?! It makes them sound DUMB. "I got some ice cream, yu no whad am sain?" YES, you did not explain rocket science dude!
Outkast is my favorite hip-hop group/hip-hop duo of all time. Their musical greatness and excellence is unparalleled and umatched. I'm still praying and hoping for a new OutKast album but only time will tell. Also Andre 3000, is one of my favorite music artists of all time. And he is my GOAT 🐐 Rapper of All Time.
I knew both. Good dudes that were really part of the "underground" Atlanta scene. Atlanta has changed so much, but one thing remains, the city loves OutKast!
@@angelitepriestess1562 Won't happen. Hurts me as much as it hurts you, just letting you know not to get your hopes up. It's not cause of bad blood or anything, it's just, mentally, andre is 3000 miles away from a reunion in his mind. Once he gets tired of soul searching, he might do a reunion, but that may be a half dozen instrumental albums from now.
PEACE, and having a peaceful mind and peace within you, is truly a wealth that no amount of money could ever provide. I’m happy Andre’s where he’s at in his life right now. It’s a beautiful thing. The industry is wicked and some people are just too good at heart to be apart of it.
OMFG! Say it with me, Ahh-kweh-mah-ni!!! Miss Jackson is my favorite Outkast record. My favorite Andre track is Hay Ya! 3 stacks is a living legend. I like Big Boi, too, but Andre has always been in my top 5 rappers list. It's a shame they split up. I'd love to get another solo album from Andre!!! I say another solo album as their last double cd Speakerboxxx and The Love Below were separate projects.

@@selphconsciousmakes sense he likes Ms. Jackson & Hey-Ya tho cuz Hey-Ya is like Ms. Jackson part 2 in terms of subject matter. Both songs deal with the gradual/inevitable deterioration of committed relationships. & Those 2 songs are just as good as any other OutKast songs. It's a matter of preference.
@@Selah_Saint_1865 no one's arguing how well they write.. lol I'm just stating the obvious, this person likely not that deep into it lol.. but to each their own.
That feature with Rick Ross Sixteen is just incredible. His bars, the way he rapped it, flow, content, it was just perfect. Outkast is my all time favorite rapgroup and I love them both but Andre 3000 he is just....another league.
Honestly you hear about Andre a lot but I feel like people don't give enough credit to Big Boy. There IS no Outkast without him. His raps were just as good as Andre but he kept it all low key. The man really deserves more respect.
As a Cali girl - LA & IE to the heart, I was in middle school/high school when OutKast had first come out. I remember watching the Source Awards on UPN when they got boo’d and as a Cali girl I didn’t understand their music or artistry. I literally took me becoming grown to appreciate them and I think the discussion around the top 5 doesn’t include Andre like it should.
Just like how someone who doesn't speak a lick of english can sing an english track like it's natural, is the same way an introvert can perform like an extrovert. Most introverts have the ability to "appear" outgoing when they want to but would have a hard time trying to maintain that facade throughout daily life on a consistent basis.
@Dee-cu8yr it's exactly how i am. People think im "people friendly", im likable and can seem outgoing and spontaneous, but it's realistically a full-time job.. 8 hours in, and im exhausted. The introvert inside me wants nothing more to do with any of it, and I immediately retreat back to my cocoon ..
What Andre said drove the point home. Basically 'normal minded' people can't take the amount of attention that fame comes with daily. Its actually not normal. And Andre was being _transparent_ whether your intro or extrovert, unless you're a *narcissist* they crave that kind of energy.
Robin Williams was so good at making those around him laugh, but that veneer covered a terrible darkness that was hidden for a long time. Same vibe, but I trust Andre had the support where any anxiety he has will be of a lesser issue
I love OutKast and i love them as big boi aka general patton and Andre 3000/3k or stacks i have their work as outkast and them as solo acts yes even stacks flute music and its great for a relaxing vibe if the fellas do read this i want them to know my big cousin/ brother put me on their music when i was a little boy i wanna say that was 03 im now 25 and im still a massive fan Outkast For Life shout to dungeon family and rico wade
They (Outkast) were one of the best rap duo's. You can't mention rap duos from the south and not mention 8ball and MJG, or UGK. They all on the same level.
Exactly. Scarface and Master P were doing their thing. P got started on the WC but still repped NO and Tru was around when OutKast was getting started. Cash Money didn’t blow up because of OutKast either. I’m a big fan but they were a part of the rise in the south, not the sole reason.
@@MusicVibeChannel That ain't all he said wrong! He said, At that time East Coast and West Coast were pretty much the same" 🙄 He must be AI because he not there
I have never heard someone butcher the word "aquemeni" so badly, or any word for that matter, and sound so confident. I wasn't going to say anything, but you just kept saying it.
I was scrolling looking for THIS comment! While I've enjoyed listening to this video so far, you'd think he'd (or someone) would listen to every song while doing research 😒
Dude fr 😂 I let it slide at first but after hearing it over and over I had to come see if somebody else felt the same. It’s my favorite album of their’s. Liberation just a hits you deep in your soul
Came to say that Bone Thugs-n-Harmony and OutKast don't get enough love today for what they did for all of us and the scene/music, I was blessed to be in the South when they were blowing up along with Nappy Roots. Much respec! and before yall get at it, I'm not saying Bone Thugs are from the South, i can hear your 4chan keyboards starting.
Outkast will forver be my favorite music group ever, i wish i was able to see their concerts. I hope one day they will come together and do another show.
They reached out to people who don't like rap, like myself I hate most rap, but I love Outkast, they were extremely talented and great to listen to, they moved me. Take care of yourself Andre, we all love you just the way you are, keep being you 😎👍❤❤
I'm glad to see that Andre kept his head on his shoulders. Not everyone is an infinite fountain of ideas. Thanks for this update about one of my favorite group. Also thanks to them for bringing us so much joy. I'm 56 and still listening to them at the gym. They are that good. I wish them well.
Sounds like Andre and Bigboi are for real. I get it people change and move forward. Appreciate the uniqueness and creativity of Outkast. It would have been easy to continue with thug rap but they challenged themselves and made music beyond rap, dare I say pop. Unique catchy beats and rhymes that can still be listened to today.
Love that movie,! The scene with circle Tyson always brings me to tears (yeah. I'm no good. But I'm into God). When I hipped my wife to that scene, I left the room
Andres music and lyrics have changed my life. He is a such a deeply emotional person. I grew up in the Atlanta area and loved Speakerboxxx as kid but now, The Love Below and even New Blue Sun are in my top albums.
Thank you for the effort you’re putting into the footage and editing. Really appreciate all the photos and videos of the timeline of these artist! Great job!
Two geniuses that are great together, separately and never duplicated. I dearly love you Andre and Big Boi, I can't think of one without the other. You are"Out Kasted" in ways you will never know.❤️🌈💯
Dude I'm as Midwest as it gets and thought Andre was dope af. Bombs over Baghda was sooooo good. I could remember it being on my football track to get fired up before games
@user-zg8ps1yt7p like I stated in my other comment. UGK and 8Ball & MJG were right there with them. Outkast had more commercial success. Duos from the south those are the top 3. I didn't listen to West Coast or East Coast rap like that.
I served in the army when I heard an OutKast song for the first time. Back then, I used to travel a lot for my unit and it was exhausting, but at the end of the day, as I sat in front of the TV and opened a music channel, "Hey Ya!" and "Miss Jackson" made me feel relaxed and comfortable. Nowadays, being a married man well in his 40's, tasked with tackling a ton of responsibilities, sometimes I play these "old" songs: Hey Ya!, Miss Jackson, etc. to remember the "old days", and bring back some of the comfort I felt then, when everything was far simpler and the future seemed brighter than ever.
I love how Andre 3000 mentioned how people were wondering about his behavior as far back as Aquemini I will argue that Speakerbox may be there most popular album but definitely not their most legendary. ATLiens really cemented their style. Organized Noize was also such a HUGE part of their sound that they deserve mention every time we discuss Outkast
@@williamroark in "Return of The Gangster" off Aquemini, Andre has a line like "Hey Big Boi, what's up with Andre? Is he in a cult? Is he in drugs? Is he gay? When y'all gna break up?" I will admit Andre did get a little "unique" I'll say with his style and behavior. There's a hilarious Key & Peele skit about it actually
I love that 3k says he dont feel like he can rap no more but legit won a grammy for rap song of the year with scientists and engineers. Unbelievable talent!
As a Georgia boy ( Savannah native ) I'm proud of Outkast, Andre 3000 and Big Boy are such good dudes and proud as hell for puttin' the South on the map for hip hop
As much as I would love to see OutKast back together, it warms my heart to see Andrea happy just doing him. I have social anxiety myself and just the thought of having the kind of attention on me that he had... I don't think I could handle it. And the fact that he did it all sober, much respect for that man. Big boi you a legend too
There’s one incredibly important detail you left out about their success: Steely Dan cracking down on Samples in 1997. Outkast used very few (if any) samples in their beats. The fact that their beats were entirely original compositions made their music stand out. It truly created the Atlanta sound and completely changed the way the rap and hip hop songs were produced and written. This impact cannot be understated.
I’m happy Andre 3K gets his flowers, growing up though big boi was always my favorite his verses are the glue that keeps a lot of OutKast’s songs together.
One correction, speakerboxxx /love below did NOT sell the most COPIES it sold the most UNITS. It's a double album so each COPY counted as 2 UNITS. So it being 13x platinum means it sold 6.5 million copies, not 13. Any single disc album that sold 7 million or more actually sold more.
LOVE THEM LOVED THEM the absolute creativity in people is astounding and the contribution of Black America to musicality is truly iconic in the true sense of the word.
RIP Rico Wade, one third of the iconic and influential Organized Noize. His musical genius bless the world with some of the greatest music that ever been heard. Right on to the real, death to the fakers
Lil Wayne always takes credit for being the first rapper to say BLING BLING in a song but he got it from Andre 3000. Andre 3000 said it first in the video for the song 'In Due Time' feat Goodie M.O.B. in 1997. The song Bling Bling didn't come out til 1999. 💎✨💎✨ Edit: & also 3 Stax is so humble he just let Weezie take it & run with it 🙏🏽😇🖖🏽👽✌🏽😎 bruh is a class act fr 💯
I usually don't listen to hip-hop, but Outkast catched my attention immediately circa 2000 when I was in high school and this video is so heartwarming, thank You!
Loved the video, thank you so much for making it. Feels like I just got to hang out with two of my favourite artists and be with them on their creative journey. Looking forward to what the future brings for them both, whatever it is
I love outkast because there was no drama made public for attention everything was done discreetly or under wraps making it so that they could enjoy life after they lived their dreams
When Outkast decides to drop that final album, It is going to be an emotional roller coaster for the ages. Andre was always a rockstar in a rap duo. I listen to mainly Rock music but I have listened to every Outkast album the music is that good. It transcends genre B.O.B. got me into them a song you bob your head to so fast it borders on headbanging.
I love how a lot of people thought at first there was some bitterness in the separation when really it was two professionals and friends saying.... Man this has run its course. You can see when they interact they still love the hell out of each other.
Miss Jackson & The Way You Move = by far the MOOOSSSTTT FAV TRACKS FROM OUTKAST!! i came to know about outkast only through MS Jackson!!, the music of that track is SOOO ICONIC of outkast. Year 2K and it aired for the first time in our country on a music channel, and thats when i read the word Outkast first time in my life. About 4 yrs later i came to know that there is an actual word called outcast in english dictionary and has a meaning 😂😂😂😂. Excellent Video Music Vibe!
We just gonna bypass the fact that this man had an entire cartoon show 😂 God bless both of these guys, extraordinarily talented individuals and as much as I'd love to hear more music, I'm genuinely happy that they're happy. Great video!
one thing this video didn't really delve into too much was how big of a commercial hit Hey Ya was. The song was everywhere all the time at the time--in the past, present and future!!!
Generally I forgot just how good Outkast are and it has made me realise growing up they were my favourite hip hop group by a "country" mile. Actually fills me with warmth how at peace they are in their later years just enjoying life.
Andre 3000, is a true artist, breaking free of the restrictions of rap music and making just good music with a larger appeal. Most of us, who were not locked into the rap genre wasn’t even aware of them until Andre broke out
I grew up in GA and was in highschool when the Love Below dropped, it was easily my favorite album because being a hbcu bound band student myself just the intro alone did it - and even though people were hating on Andre3000 appearance, he was bold enough to be different than everybody else ~ or in other words not afraid to be himself and I realted to that being a biracial teenager in a 90% black environment. A legend in my eyes
Artist duo that had their downfall endup in not being a downfall, it just Two artist getting older and older and as time pass by so do to them, fade away but their legacy and impact the industry would never being forgotten...
What is your favorite Outkast song?
Player's Ball
Da art of storytelling P1
SouthernPlayalistCadillacFunkyMuzik!!! Straight 🔥🔥🔥Can’t let it go 💪🏿🇺🇸🔥🇺🇸🔥🇺🇸🔥👍🏿
Ms. Jackson i bet u know why;)
These 2 Atliens are colder then a polar bears toenail
Andre was always seen as eccentric...but so is every artistical genius.....Him & Big Boi were doing avant garde stuff that nobody else was doing back then, which made Outkast to this day one of the most unique musical duo of all times.
He told you, he started talking to evil spirits that's a no no. You are massing with evilbangels who were thrown out of heaven.
Well said
Great story. No one getting beat up, dicked over or scandals. Just some great artists that grew up and did their thing.
Facts!
Great story, with a great ending, they stay cool, they go their own ways, happy ending!
Dude. Spoiler alert.
-Thank you.-
Outkast was way ahead of their time. Haters doing what haters do.
So Right❤
Yup, just think about how they would be received today, especially Andre obviously. Unfortunately he was about a quarter century too early
What is wrong with people who say "You know what I am saying" every 3 seconds though?! It makes them sound DUMB. "I got some ice cream, yu no whad am sain?" YES, you did not explain rocket science dude!
@@calistafalcontail it's just emphasis - don't take phrases so literally hope ur doin well
Andre and Big Boi together are the bomb; creatively, Andre is just part of some rare air.

Outkast always reminds me of the last time I truly felt hope. They will always represent hope to me, which is why I want them to make more music.
RIP Rico Wade, one third of the iconic and influential Organized Noize. His musical genius bless the world with some of the greatest music that ever been heard. Right on to the real, death to the fakers
man.. it’s sad 😔 rip 🥀
Lil Wayne always takes credit for being the first rapper to say BLING BLING in a song but he got it from Andre 3000. Andre 3000 said it first in the video for the song 'In Due Time' feat Goodie M.O.B. in 1997. The song Bling Bling didn't come out til 1999. 💎✨💎✨ Edit: & also 3 Stax is so humble he just let Weezie take it & run with it
🙏🏽😇🖖🏽👽✌🏽😎 bruh is a class act fr 💯
I usually don't listen to hip-hop, but Outkast catched my attention immediately circa 2000 when I was in high school and this video is so heartwarming, thank You!
Speakerboxxx and The Love Below was one of the most epic albums of all times.
Sooo true
Loved the video, thank you so much for making it. Feels like I just got to hang out with two of my favourite artists and be with them on their creative journey. Looking forward to what the future brings for them both, whatever it is
I'm so glad!
I’m shocked that he still goes to the laundromat. He’s at peace with himself and that’s great ❤
this is definitely one of my favorite youtube videos of all time, amazing storytelling.
Wow, thanks!
I love outkast because there was no drama made public for attention everything was done discreetly or under wraps making it so that they could enjoy life after they lived their dreams
Been waiting for this!
Thanks for whatching!
When Outkast decides to drop that final album, It is going to be an emotional roller coaster for the ages. Andre was always a rockstar in a rap duo. I listen to mainly Rock music but I have listened to every Outkast album the music is that good. It transcends genre B.O.B. got me into them a song you bob your head to so fast it borders on headbanging.
I’m not mad at the new Andre album…essentially it’s an ambient album…and it’s very relaxing
I always believe that Hey Ya! is the happiest dance song 💜
Hit the scene like a ball of Fire😮😮 butt fires burn out🔥🔥🔥
Finally a new video
Hi!
Um a Ander 3k, Prince , anderson .Paak and K dot kinda person and We all need a big boi friend in-our life
😀
I love how a lot of people thought at first there was some bitterness in the separation when really it was two professionals and friends saying.... Man this has run its course. You can see when they interact they still love the hell out of each other.
From caterpillar, to cacoon, to butterfly. We should all ask to be so in tune. 🌱
Miss Jackson & The Way You Move = by far the MOOOSSSTTT FAV TRACKS FROM OUTKAST!!
i came to know about outkast only through MS Jackson!!, the music of that track is SOOO ICONIC of outkast.
Year 2K and it aired for the first time in our country on a music channel,
and thats when i read the word Outkast first time in my life.
About 4 yrs later i came to know that there is an actual word called outcast in english dictionary and has a meaning 😂😂😂😂.
Excellent Video Music Vibe!
thank you!
So fresh and clean, too!
@@boogermaiden yes that too
Andre 3000 is amazing. I've always been such a massive fan.
Super creative. People at the top don’t like that. Seriously another level.
Good luck to both of them they have e left a great body of work together.
We just gonna bypass the fact that this man had an entire cartoon show 😂 God bless both of these guys, extraordinarily talented individuals and as much as I'd love to hear more music, I'm genuinely happy that they're happy. Great video!
Been a fan since seeing OutKast on Martin back in the day.
one thing this video didn't really delve into too much was how big of a commercial hit Hey Ya was. The song was everywhere all the time at the time--in the past, present and future!!!
Seeing both together makes me happy as a fan
Am from Atlanta and OutKast are the best duo ever came out of Atlanta we love them ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🫶🏾🫶🏾🫶🏾
I hope they make another album. This was the best rap group to me. Humble dudes....
OutKast were decades ahead of their time. I used to see them in Atlanta.
Rap without the crap = Outkast. Absolute legends. ❤
Generally I forgot just how good Outkast are and it has made me realise growing up they were my favourite hip hop group by a "country" mile. Actually fills me with warmth how at peace they are in their later years just enjoying life.
Retiring at the peak of your career is never a bad idea.
OutKast didn’t get the world props until they went pop, OutKast first three albums is what OutKast is to the south💯💯💯
Andre 3000, is a true artist, breaking free of the restrictions of rap music and making just good music with a larger appeal. Most of us, who were not locked into the rap genre wasn’t even aware of them until Andre broke out
I grew up in GA and was in highschool when the Love Below dropped, it was easily my favorite album because being a hbcu bound band student myself just the intro alone did it - and even though people were hating on Andre3000 appearance, he was bold enough to be different than everybody else ~ or in other words not afraid to be himself and I realted to that being a biracial teenager in a 90% black environment.
A legend in my eyes
Grew up on ATLiens, loved Outkast
ATLiens is on my top10 list of albums!
The jazz flute reminds me of Will Ferrel in Anchorman 😂
Artist duo that had their downfall endup in not being a downfall, it just Two artist getting older and older and as time pass by so do to them, fade away but their legacy and impact the industry would never being forgotten...
0:30 i thought Tyler was using the imfamous -ER language that C Nova used during Druski coulda been label.
Thank you Thank you Outkast ... Thank you for EVERYTHING!
