I can't take this thread seriously. The amount of revisionist history and imaginary co-signs by "real heads" that don't exist make it so. The number one thing I hate about hip-hop boards is how people take their opinions and turn them into...well, something like this. Basically an invalidated statement.

Like somebody said, you could of just left it at "I'm not a fan of Outkast" and that's it. I am. That's cool. Let's agree to disagree.

:laff: @ the bolded.

TALK ABOUT IRONY.

outkast are the poster-boys for revisionist history.

the thing with outkast is, i absolutely love their first album. after that? they're pretty much forgettable to me, minus a few songs. funny enough, my favorite track off of aquemini, is the big boi solo that should've been on spcm. even on their 2nd album, my fav tracks are the first 2 that are more "street." they were best at being pimps and hustlers and imo, that's what they should've stuck to. i hate when people go and switch up their style, when it doesn't suit them. everyone feels like you should do that nowadays for no reason. they just don't stick to what they're best at. i can only imagine what i would've thought if someone like redman would've done this kind of shiit.:russ:

^im sure the black eyed peas can say the same thing.

your statement is wrong by the way. they have 4 multi-plat albums. not 6.

alot of similarites between both groups as well.:umad:

Now in retrospect.

Back then the East coast didn't like or respect ANYONE not from the tri-state area.

If they did they wouldn't let it be known.


a lot of those groups were not accepted.
were culturally in violation for that era, though.
it was not until the jiggy movement, and ny lost its cultural identity.
did the culture allow nikkaz on the fence, and in violation a pass.

which is not because they earned it,..it is because ny lost its way.
so, it made critical thinking about other groups.
who also had cultural violations from other regions.
the ability to develop a pass.

before that,..yes, kast was looked down upon.
as real talk,..they stole the actual culturally accepted group, souls of mischief's whole fukk'n shyt.
they just applied a pimp vibe to souls of mischief.
plus blew off of the permeation souls of mischief had created in a grassroots function.
since the hof burnt posse cut,..which at the time.
was one of the greatest posse cut bsides of all time, for that era.

souls of mischief had to succumb to label pressure from jive.
then make pimp based street oaktown records.
to get released after actually setting a precedent sales wise.
before kast, and laface use pimp/gangsta vibes in cultural violation to steal soul's draw.
see, most nikkaz don't talk about this shyt at all.
nor, do they talk about the rift socially between big boi and dre.
where they were so juxtaposed,...they were like a put together rnb group, made at one another.
kast's change in direction from dre, and badu.
is what helped them later gain cred..
yet, originally nikkaz looked at them as southern version of biters of bay artist.
from tooshort, to souls of mischief......
which was a dead on assessment.......
as kast, did not rhyme anywhere near as well as souls of mischief.....
yet, jacked their steez, and they actually admit it as well.

nor do I think any record on scpm, is better than som's debut.
that predates the kast record.
the same souls of mischief record, they lifted from.
