 Wildly idle Jan 22, 2010
Aside from the silly film loosely linking the material, this could easily be considered a b-sides album of later-era Outkast- not the worst thing for hip hop in general but ultimately a big soggy bite into fan expectations of a genuine studio release.
 The Future of Music Dec 28, 2009
In Idlewild, Outakst draws from some of the glorious eras of grooves in the past to create a soulful blend with current hip hop styles. The songwriting has the creativity needed to make such a blend sound amazing. If you understand what I said in the past two sentences, then you know it will be sick.

 ANDRE PLEASE RAP PLEEEEAAAASSSSSEEEEE!!!!!!!!! Sep 09, 2008
ANDRE 3000 IN MY BOOK IS IN THE TOP 10 MC'S OF ALL TIME. HIS FLOW IS ON TARGET HIS DELIVERY PRECISE. I AM SAD TO SAY AS AN DIE HARD OUTKAST FAN THAT THIS ALBUM IS COMPLETE GARBAGE. DO NOT BUY IT UNLESS YOU ENJOYED THE LOVE BELOW. ANDRE I AM AN DIVERSE MUSIC LOVER IF YOU WERE A GOOD SINGER I WOULD BE THE FIRST TO JUMP ON YOUR SINGING BANDWAGON, BUT UNFORNUTLEY YOU CANT SING YOUR WAY OUT OF A BOOT IF THE INSTRUCTIONS WERE ON THE HEEL. PLEASE I IMPLORE YOU TO GO BACK TO YOUR ROOTS AND RAP,RAP,RAP. IT IS YOUR GOD GIVEN TALENT AND YOU HAVE ABANDONED IT.

 "Greatest Show On Earth" music is Inconsistent with the Movie Dec 22, 2007
I recently purchased an "Idlewild" CD, the explicit music version of the show "Idlewild", specifically for the song "The Greatest Show on Earth" because, SPECIFICALLY, OF THE HORNS!!!!!!! BUT, (hint, hint, hint), when I bought the CD the song did not feature any HORNS!!!!! in the song "The Greatest Show on Earth". The horns in the movie made that song stand out like no other with power and BRAVO, and made me designate this song as the best I have ever heard, over all the rests. Yes, though, of course, the singer and other music, in the song, rocked too! The singer was great in that laid back, sophisticated style of genre play. She gave significance to being alive in a world of prejudice, hate, and suffering. But, again, though, the horns brought life to the song like beer (or fresh water for those of us who do not drink} running out of a rock on the side of a mountain. The horns made the song ROCK SOLID!!!!! The song JAMMED FOR ALL TIME SAKE!!!! That's in the movie, though. But when I listened to the CD there are no HORNS in that song; at least none that I can hear. Needless to say, I was very, totally, boiling, disappointed. In addition, guys, you also cut the song short; toooooo short. As it was getting ready to take off, it blahs out, like a mouse slamming into a wall!!!! The rest of the CD is good, though. But man, I'm telling you, the CD suffers and limps without the HORNS in the song of "The Greatest Show on Earth". I think Outkast knew this and just ripped everybody off!!! Bass saxophones, tenor saxophones, and trombones and trumpets (whatever they were) ROCKKKKEDD in the movie, but not on the CD. I won't buy another CD by Outkast again.
