Title: Outkast
Post by: Blake on October 24, 2003, 02:40:09 pm
I've waited and waited, and waited some more for someone to start this, oh well.

You might know him from hits such as:

Hey Ya!
Miss Jackson
The Whole World
The Way You Move

And some more old stuff...

Anyways, I think  he is hella funny! And HEY YA! Is way to catchy hehe

And actually I've browsed radio station rock playlists, and some stations have been playing HEY YA! o.O!

[D]

"him" is actually "them"
Outkast is a duo, Big Boi & Andre.
Big Boi has got SPEED, just listen to "B.O.B.(Bombs Over Bahgdad)" That dude can rap a mile a minute.
Andre is the more creative ecentric one.

Their newest CD however is a double CD. Each of them did a solo project and it was bundled together.
Andre is the one on "Hey Ya".

I've always wondered why I never saw their thread! I would have started it a billion times I just assumed that it had already been started and my thread would get locked.

They are awesome! :D

I'm sorry Miss Carlton.. WOO!!!!

Yeah I was confussed about the whole thing, I had older CDs burned before, and then I saw the title written Outkast "Hey Ya! (Andre 3000)" and it just further confussed me...That helps alot though because I saw the CD on the charts and it said "Speaker Boxxx/The Love Below" and I wondered why they released "Hey Ya!" and "The Way You Move" at the same time...hehe

I got the DVD single with the video's a couple weeks back, its hella funny "Hey Ya!" video!

I was going to start an Outkast thread eventually, but I've been lazy as of late, heh.

I've always liked them as a unit and felt they worked very well together. I like Big Boi a bit more than Andre 3000 simply because some of his stuff is really weird and Big Boi is a tight rapper lol.

And yes, some alternative stations are actually playing "Hey Ya", which scares me but eh.

As soon as I get some money I am so buying Speakerboxxx/The Love Below.

Yeah, it's weird, I couldn't imagine,

"That's Metallica "St. Anger" now here's new stuff from Outkast "Hey Ya!" "

And even some of them were playing John Mayer "Bigger Than My Body"

Watch out hilery duff, is going rock!

Eh, to me I just thought...As long as they don't start playing 50 Cent, Ludacris and stupid crap 'music' like that one rock stations I'll be happy.

For your info , they said that this is the last Outkast project.
This is why there are two solo projects because they owed
Arista another album.  They officially broke up as a group like 4 or 5 months ago.  I actually don't like their newer stuff really, but I love the older stuff.  ATLiens is my favorite album of theirs of all time

I haven't heard the other song you guys are talking about there, but they keep playing the "Hey Ya!" vid on VIVA TV, and the other day Andre was on Interaktiv, an afternoon interview show and he was there all alone. I didn't really like the song at first - it's pretty far from being my kind of music - but it's really growing on me, now I always leave the vid on til the end when they play it hehe

hey ya is a hella fun song lol...

the coffin is freaky...but, ya know. The song really isn't "hip hop" but yet it is...so I guess that's why they play it on the Rock stations (freaked my system and everyone in my 3rd block class, I can say that much...)...

But the video is wicked!

no, but alternative stations play some weird songs as alternative. I know they played some of the N.E.R.D. stuff on the alternative stations too.

Okay this is disturbing.
Seattle's alternative station 107.7 The End (you know, the place where alt/rock:grunge got its start) is good for sticking to its format. I know a lot of other stations blur the line by playing songs outside the format, and just now I heard a promo of them having "Hey Ya" on the playlist. I love the song but it does not belong on The End. I'm really disappointed in them.

Which one?  :razz:

I assume you are talking about "Hey Ya" because it is the one that gets more radio play on pop stations, etc. ... they actually have 2 singles out right now though. "Hey Ya" grows on you. I like "The Way You Move" though  :)

Awesome!

I still need to buy Staind's album, and some more, then maybe I'll buy it...But I need to be saving my money for my summer road trip  :twisted:

And no one forget, Outkast on SNL tomorrow/tonight, Hosted by Kelly Rippa.

Hey Ya is the best song EVER.  I loved it the first time I heard it.  And that is super rare for me...for anyone really.  I am officially addicted to this song and would take Andre 3000 home with me if I could.  He looks like a lot of fun and I love all of the different versions of himself!

"Lend me some sugar!  I am your neighbor!"

"Shake it like a Polaroid picture!"

Genius!   :rainbowafro:

"The Way You Move" is great too, they started playing "HEY YA!" mainly at first, even though both were released, but recently, they've been playing "The Way You Move" also, so it's at #28 I think, I tried to pull up the site, but it's down right now...

they are playing both of the songs here, but I think I do like "hey ya" better.  lol the other day i was here working and it was really quiet, and my friend sneaks up behind me and whispers in my ear, 'shake it like a polaroid picture' and I just burst out laughing, i dont know why... but it was completely random and quite funny.

Yeah, I've seen Big Boi and A3000 on Leno, and SNL and A3000 on Letterman, it's pretty crazy funny! Especially when A3000 was on Leno, and at the begining he said something like, "Ladies and gentleman, in the game of tennis love means...Absolutly nothing!"
