Andre 3000: ‘It Kills Me When People Try To Put Big Boi Down’

[HARLEM AL]

probably because he carried him on the first couple of cds. but big boi held his own later on and on his solo joints

fukk outta here

 

[spliz]

He did
and I will never forget Ceelo exposed Dre penned most of their early shyt

He didn't ...and Big Boi called Cee Lo out on that shyt and straight up said it's one of the most ridiculous things he ever heard about himself...

 

[HARLEM AL]

He said Andre wrote for Big Boi on the first album and Big Boi called him out on it....also most people never heard Ceelo say that...they just been dikkridin Dre cause it's been the "cool" thing to do...

dikk riding isn't the word...

 

[Rapmastermind]

Actually it Kills Big Boi that you ain't DOWN anymore Dre. You done lost your mans MILLIONS in tour and album money. There should of been an Outkast album years ago and Big Boi patiently waited only for you to only give him this 20th anniversary reunion tour.

 

[W.I.Z.E.]

Dre can get mad all he wants but there's a reason why he hears it so much.


cuz it's fukking true. Dre is a better rapper than Big Boi.

Is Big Boi wack HEEELLLLLLLLLLL NO. But Big Boi is like Tim Duncan. Hall of Fame type career, great fundamentalts, but unappreciated. Dre is like MJ (pick one Johnson, Jordan)

 

[Guess Who]

3 Stacks got more mic presence.

3 Stacks writes verses that are more coherent and substantive as a whole

Big Boi has the sharper flow...yet 3 Stacks still has a sick flow himself.

 

[Jimmy ValenTime]

i will say this big boi a great rapper his frist solo album felt like a true extension of what an outkast style album would sound like ....

his second album with the indie rock lean sound like it would fit andre better

he also should be nominated for saint hood for not strangling Andre over all the missed business opportunity

they could be literally in the 100 million range if they took every concert festival and endorsement in the early 2000

 

[beenz]

it seems to me that 3 stacks is one of the main culprits of putting big boi down these days.

Its NOT the fact of if Andre is better...it's the fact that big boi gets treated as a sidekick when it was NEVER looked at like that until AFTER the group disbanded and Dre stopped rapping...shyt..U let these nikkas tell it and u would never know that BIG BOI was the one who was the most sought after for features. .

 

[Lord Mecca]

Well that is ur opinion

But they were both equal. Perfect Ying to Dre's yang. I mean listed to Big Boi's last verse on D.E.E.P.

another underrated Outkast super banger

 

[TheJet]

Why the hell is he doing interviews with Ellen and not Breakfast Club or Thot 97?

 

[The Bilingual Gringo]

Always liked Big Boi better

 

[Black Magisterialness]

with out Big Boi Aquemini and Stankonia are ho hum albums instead of classics. He was the perfect foil to Dre. The quintessential down-to-earth compared to Dre's super space lyrics.

Dre is the Sprititual/Metaphysical and Big Boi is the Physical/Corporeal they needed each other.

I got a list here's the order of my list that it's in
It goes Reggie, Jay-Z, Tupac and Biggie
Andre from OutKast, Jada, Kurupt, Nas and then me - Eminem 2002

Group disbanded AFTER that.

Trust me there are a LOT of other examples. People were calling 3 Stacks a top rapper and most DEF better than Big Boi since the late 90's.

Because Sadly...Ellen is realer.
