How did this become a Big Boi >>>>> Andre 3000. We know there are people who prefer one over the other, but this board goes extra with it. Like, you got people acting as if everybody was in agrreance that Big Boi was better than Andre 3000 then all of a sudden people started jockin Andre 3000. That's not how it happened and most of ya'll know that. Had nothing to do with that Eminem line either.
Boosie says he was never a fan of Andre Three Thousand or Outkast, first Atlanta cat he ever bumped like that was Tip

This is nothing compared to the actual cultural disrespect and rewriting of history Big Boi has been getting over the past decade. Nowhere close. People will have Dre in a top 5 or 10 and have Big Boi in like top 50. And this is from official lists by publications. It’s fukking disgusting.

8Ball and MJG made a lot dope songs...
There's a reason why Mobb Deep wanted to collab with the Fat Mac.
"Ball was in the studio session cutting up some weed with some scissors" says Prodigy.
I get that, but it is all countered by people who do the same with Big, but only bring him up to knock Dre. Rarely does Big Boi get his due for being him and he has a solo catalog, yet his music rarely gets discussed. Andre 3000's name gets mentioned and there's a bunch of "Big Boi is >>>>>" and "Big Boi is elite", but people don't show up when Big Boi is the topic or mention him in GOAT convos.

I think it’s goofy. Neither one is that far from the other is all saying.

Yeah anybody that watched that vid should not at all be offended by what he said. I’m 36 and my foundational years were Biggie, PAC, No Limit, Jay, Nas, Cash Money, and various Screwed Up Click rappers. I was not listening to Arrested Development, Tribe Called Quest, and early Common, but recognized their influence later.It's funny how when ppl say something that's going against the popular opinion, they automatically label the person broke and bitter
Boosie didnt say anything disrespectful. It makes sense boosie would like TI more than 3k. Makes sense he gravitated to the more street life type rappers.
The way nikkas in here up in arms you woulda thought Boosie said 3k was trash or something.
You forgot the largest group, pro-black people

This is true. Only thing weird to me is that outkast were street rappers themselves but people act like they were just some nerds or some shytIt's funny how when ppl say something that's going against the popular opinion, they automatically label the person broke and bitter

Them and goodie mob were essentially some spiritual hood nikkas from Atlanta rapping about everyday life. Pimping, selling dope, hustling, jewlery, cars, getting p*ssy, and fighting nikkas
They literally describe themselves as "two dopeboys in a cadillac"
It's just weird to me that they have the same subject matter as 3 6 or ugk, but get pigeonholed into something different entirely instead of just a variation.

but this dude older than me lol
the south really is slow. Well at least back then in regards to hiphop. Correction. In regards to everything
With that said it’s a reason nobody goes 20x platinum. Not every one likes or knows every artist. No matter how popular or unpopular the artist is

Ehh, maybe just outkast was seemingly on some other stuff when I consumed their music. I didnt go out looking for outkast. When I would see them on bet or 106 it would be for Lovebelow/the way you move/BOB/So fresh So clean/Ms Jackson/Hey Ya. So it didnt appear to me they were street rappers. I didnt think they were nerds, especially Big Boi, just different type of rapThis is true.
