Description:

Imagine if the ghetto got electrified. That's Stankonia, an album of street smarts doused with gasoline and ready to burn. When a thundering electric guitar collides with a relentless drumbeat on the molten "Gasoline Dreams," it dominates mind and body, setting the tone for the album. Dre and Big Boi spin a world of freaks, poets, preachers, and pimps, but most importantly, possibilities. This music messes with your head. --Lizz Mendez Berry

This is just fun, funky hip-hop music that anyone can enjoy.

Lots of good tracks in here, definitely good replay value.

5Stankonia 2000- 8 years ago   Oct 21, 2008
I remember this album when I was in the 8th grade. I Played this album out. It was good. This is an album that will only add to the accolades of this group. They did new things like taking different rhythms, different tempos, to reflect what is going on with our world. The music has an urgent feel. They were improving themselves as musicians and artists. This album has been certified 4x Platinum. Remember, this was 2000.

Outkast with a K... Some real good music on here, some classic stuff...so fresh, so clean with all the dirty south hits like gasoline and B.O.B...Humble as a Mumble in the jungles of shouts and screams.... that's the way erika sang it so I guess I've got to reroute my dreams...some b-real on the Xplosion of dirty beat that just makes you want to get some more outkast...

4Very good, especially compared to most the rest of today's rap  Dec 06, 2007
The fourth album by this Georgian rap duo is widely considered to be about as good as alternative hip-hop gets. And you know what? Once you get past the interludes (the worst of which being the forty-second "I'm Cool", pretty much that title phrase on repeat. Fun...), I more or less agree. Like the similarly-minded Gorillaz, they know how to use headphone stuff to good effect - if it weren't for the quirky sounds, "So Fresh, So Clean" would be just another R&B ballad, but with them it's elevated to a pretty high level. And speaking of ballads, come on, who doesn't like "Miss Jackson"? I mean, I'm not even a rap fan, but I know a good song when I hear it, and that's one right there. But it's not just ballads: They really rock the house on the Public Enemy-influenced "Gasoline Dreams", a dense mix of samples; "Spaghetti Junction" is very funky; the nonstop rant "B.O.B." (that stands for "Bombs Over Baghdad") is downright hyperactive, but that's a great rhythm track it's got behind it. And just for variety's sake, they get all spacey and such on the psychedelic "I'll Call Before I Come" - think "Pink Floyd hip-hop", if that's even possible - and even include a haunted-house harpsichord on "Xplosion", as well as adding African rhythms to "Humble Mumble". Not all of it is great - I can safely say I do not like "We Luv Dees Hoes" (isn't OutKast supposed to be the alternative to stuff like that?); the noise attack "?"; or clichéd tracks like "Gangsta S***" or "Red Velvet". And even those are redeemed by the near-heartbreaking "Toilet Tisha" and the title track, with prominent guitar. Yeah, I don't even like rap, and this is good. A tough one not to like, even with the fillers and skits and such. It is a bit to long, though. Do not get this confused with your stupid "G-G-G-G-UNIT!" crapola. Big difference.
