Why does the Coli pretend Big Boi is on Andre 3000's level?

Lol

I seriously doubt Dre’s George Clinton/Prince/Sly Stone act would’ve been embraced in the 90s without Big being there to take the edge off

shyt wasn’t exactly as open minded as the world became

eh... people embrace this mythology of linear "progression " but life is more complex than that

in the mid 90s the black masses still actively listened and partied to multitudes of genres of music... often times in the same event... today's atmosphere cannot be compared

there was nothing revolutionary about 3000s astethics

.. he was moreso an ode to what we were already accustomed to... big boi was not needed in that aspect

(and that's just music... we could juxtapose the range of public intellectuals and well circulated ideologies of that era etc etc with today... id agrue today aint overall more progressive... even while considering the explosion of gay stuff... even when you scratch the surface of that and examine its essentially consevative)

without the dungeon family and big boi l, 3000 would just be in the humongous pile of great rappers no one ever mentions or really listens to

its less about pretending anything and more about respecting the group dynamics of what makes outkast outkast
