Andre stopped caring about his fans though and stopped making hiphop music thinking Hollywood was going to scoop him up. Ehht.

breh go back and relisten to the album

from dre's prayer #3 god interlude to draculas wedding (every song up to it)

3stacks was tellin a story

3 god= he prayed for a chick to come in his life
4 happy valentine day= he like fukk that shyt
5 spread= he finds a bytch take her knock the lining out of her
6 the morning after - spread was a one night stand, she was a bad bytch
7 prototype= he debatin about the broad, and wanna make it work
8 she lives in my lap= he realizes she aint trying to be cuff
9 hey ya= he's done with her and tied of trying
10 roses= fukk dat bytch
11 good day good sir= he with his potna and spots a old school
12 behold a lady = finds a cougar peepin
13 pink n blue= he lettin her know he dont give a fukk about the chicks age hoes his age aint about shyt
14 love in war= he fukkin her
15 draculas wedding= he is skeptical but she insistin she aint on that bullshyt, and willing to go that extra mile with him

if u sit back n really peep that album it went over alot of peoples heads, it was like musical
i've always felt that Dracula's Wedding was really about Andre's fear of superstardom, and the price of fame. He wanted it all along, and then when he finally got it...it scared him to death. Which is why he actually "quit" the industry & stopped touring for all this time. I really hope the rumor of them touring in 2014 is true though. :bryan:

Oh, and don't forget about "Vibrate"...about just doing it yourself...via masturbation. :ahh:
I feel like people will revisit Outkast and Andre 3k in particular like cacs do with Bob Dylan in the distant future. Dude is under appreciated as a musician
Naaaa...don't tell that to these fools that get upset when you bring him up with the greats & say he's overrated now. Makes me shake my head.

It's just too bad that all of those years went by, and Andre wasn't considered one of the best. He had people with influence like Jay-Z publicly saying he "just didn't get it"...but then when The Love Below dropped, he was blown away & went back to listen to the greatness that was the previous OutKast albums.

Man when 808 & Heartbreaks dropped i was telling everybody go back an listen to Love Below because that set the trend that kanye claims he set.

I TELL EVERYBODY THIS shyt!! :damn:

The Love Below was the album that set up 808's, So Far Gone, and every "experimental" hip-hop album out there right now...
