i never said arrested development hit in every sector, im saying that outkast hit in arrested's sector and inherited their base. i never said that was outkast's only base. i dont know what part of that you dont understand. its not rocket science. i cant tell if youre playing stupid out of convenience or if this is really how your brain operates.

"the way you move" is not unbeatable. nowhere near. LOL. i dont know what that has to do with the narrative you were trying to push tho. you keep combining different comments of mines and trying to jumble them up into some other chit. but yea, they dont have anything on the level of unbeatable status. the closest would be ms jackson.

so youre open to discussing posts that arent directed towards you, but you'll ignore the posts that are directed towards you when convenient.
youre on ignore in this thread from here on out until you go back and acknowledge that.

Arrested Development didn't have their own sector. They were a Hip Hop group that was pretty much shunned by Hip Hop because they came off condescending and preachy. The audiences that they did connect with was the more Afrocentric crowd that existed outside of Hip Hop. They also connected with mainstream America. Neither demographic is exclusive to Arrested Development.

"The Way You Move" is unbeatable. It's a song that you can dance and whatever response Tribe responds with will have to be one of their classics or something that can match groove of that song. I take it you've never followed a Verzuz battle.

The fact that you think "Ms. Jackson" is the closest song they have to being "unbeatable" proves how out of touch with the realm of reality you are.

So you're pretty much contradicting your point about if you really liked AD then you really liked Kast. Huge difference between liking two songs by one group and liking the group. So yes, saying if you were a Hip Hop fan who liked AD then you liked Kast is a stretch given that AD was a group that was kind of shunned by Hip Hop.

OutKast was never as alternative as De La Soul or Tribe. There's a lot of Southern Hip Hop fans that never got into either of those groups that love Kast. There are Hip Hop fans in general that weren't fans of De La or Tribe.

I don’t see how it’s a stretch to say if you were a fan of hip hop and liked AD than you prolly really liked OutKast. That should be common sense. It’s not like their was a regional bias thing going on. They were from the same city. And Kast was every bit as alternative as Tribe and De La. Their music had the same sensibilities. What made it even more alternative was that they were from the South who up until that point were mostly known for making bass music. OutKast didn’t sound like anybody else from the region. They were much more like Tribe than Tag Team and the 69 Boys. So much so that they auditioned for LA Reid over one of Tribes beats

How is the Way You Move unbeatable? Of course Tribe would have to play a classic to beat it. They could beat that with Bonita Applebum tbh

It is a stretch because Kast sounded NOTHING like Arrested. Yes, they auditioned for LA Reid using Tribe's "Scenario", but you can't tell me that when you first heard the songs below, they gave you flashbacks of Arrested:











^^^ look, sound, and aesthetic is completely different except maybe the flow.


We don't get any Native Tongue vibes from Kast until this drops:

The fact that they would have to use one of their uber classics speaks volumes.

As long as you keep posting this dumb narrative, I will continue to reply especially since you posting that garbage and then tagged me in the post. Nobody even asked for that Arrested Development post and here you go yet again pushing that garbage.

i take it that youre not too familiar with @JustCKing.

common sense just isnt his 4-tay.

check out his performance in that eminem/snoop thread for further analysis.

i was doing you a solid with that last post, but youre too socially numb to heed to the warning.
youre going out of your way to let everybody know that you have no clue what youre talking about.

"afrocentricity that existed outside of hip-hop".
you dont know what the hell youre talking about.
funny thing is, your hero got his first award, rockin a dashiki, and looking like a lost member of arrested development.

just sitdown already before you pop a vessel.

Breh, you are in here accusing me of not knowing what I'm talking about, but are here equating rocking a dashiki to looking like a lost member of Arrested. First of all, Black people, who never touched a Hip Hop record were wearing dashikis . Second of all, Afrocentricity isn't something that started with Hip Hop. Third, Tribe was rocking dashikis before anyone heard of Arrested Development:

The idiocy of your post is that Tribe was out here rocking that look and had that whole style. Kast was influenced by Tribe and are on record saying so. Yet you conveniently skip over Tribe and say Kast inherited Arrested's audience.

i said outkast inherited arrested's audience. i never said they were influenced by them. TWO COMPLETELY DIFFERENT THINGS. you dont even know what youre arguing about.
nor was i implicating that andre was trying to look like a member of arrested development by rockin a dashiki. nor did i say that arrested started any of that.

but this is what YOU said tho:

The audiences that they did connect with was the more Afrocentric crowd that existed outside of Hip Hop.

The Way You Move is one of Kast Uber classics tho. It was the second biggest single on their best selling album

but this is what YOU said tho:

No you didn't say they were influenced by Arrested. I never said thatbyou did. I was stating the fact that Tribe influenced Kast, but you NEVER say they inherited their audience. And yes you did imply that Andre was trying to look like Arrested. Why even bring up how he looked at The Source Awards and then say he was looking like a lost member of Arrested as if they were the onlybones rocking dashikis.

Afrocentricity existed outside of Hip Hop. Huge part of the reason why Spike Lee had Arrested create "Revolution" for the Malcolm X soundtrack. It was the only modern song on the whole soundtrack. Everything else was oldies.

No its not. "The Way You Move" is like second tier Kast material.
