    To mark the 20th anniversary of ‘Stankonia,’ we’re counting down the top songs in André 3000 and Big Boi’s shared catalog. From ‘Southernplayalisticadillacmuzik’ to ‘Idlewild,’ from Bankhead to Mars, this is the best of the best by hip-hop’s most effortlessly cool duo of all time.

    ___________________________________________________

    This list reads like a hipster did it but it is a fun trip down memory lane.

    My top 5 in no order would be

    Ms Jackson
    So Fresh and So Clean
    Crumblin Erb
    SouthernPlayalistic
    Roses

    And that's not hard and fast.

    Bonus Read.

    I'm not the biggest Outkast fan but I respect their work. For me:

    Black Ice (yeah it's actually Goodie Mob but whatever)

    Southernplayalistik

    In Due Time

    Ain't No Thang

    ...an album that’s bored with hip-hop while still featuring some of the best rapping ever committed to wax.
    _______

    What do you mean by 'hipster' ... totally normal sentence in 2020.

    Committed to wax is totally what they are saying in 20/20.

    Have not listened in a while but Southernplayalistic I think still does it for me.

    Deepest quality of songs and timeless.

    Love the song but can't put it into my top 5.

    A bit to pop.

    Didn't even look at the list, but if Bombs Over Baghdad isn't #1, then it's worthless.



    EDIT: just checked. they got it right

    Not sure what my top 5 is... too many great ones. However this one is definitely in it and as I expected it didn’t even make their top 50. But I like it like that. So underrated.
