If you like Outkast you'll be very pleased with this album.

I'm really proud what Dre has done here, and I hope everyone goes out and supports him and his new direction. He does spit some bars in a couple songs, but even if he hadn't I would've still been extremely happy. I'm not gonna sit here and say he's an excellent singer, but there's perfection within his imperfect voice that's hard to explain.Р”Р„ll is not lost for those who wanted to hear 'Dre rap. I thought that I would get tired of Dre's singing after a couple tracks, but the more he sang the more his style of singing grew on me. I'm not really knowledgeable in the history of genre crossovers, but Dre has seriously stepped out of the box and unleashed a truly jaw-dropping cd IMO. Issued as a double album, its length of over two hours is spread across solo albums from both of the group's members.

It was released on September 23, 2003, by Arista Records. In all honesty I didn't have very high expectations for Andre's disc, but it stands head and shoulders above Big Boi's Speakerboxx. Speakerboxxx/The Love Below is the fifth studio album by American hip hop duo Outkast. Why hiphop artists continue to throw on stupid skits to their cds is beyond me. The only thing ruining this disc are the skits.

Definitely raising the standard for hiphop. I guess the best way I could describe it is Outkast minus Andre because, well, that's what it is. I don't really have much to say about this cd. I've always felt that Andre was a far better MC than Boi, but without Dre he managed to shine. I 'acquired' this album earlier today and one word sums it up: WOWР”Р‡irst off, the production is absolutely incredible on both discs (as if 'Kast fans expected anything less).Р”В«ig Boi definitely stepped up his game and was able to carry a cd on his own.

Speakerbox the love below zip
