#290 OutKast, 'Speakerboxxx/The Love Below' (2003)

It’s a bit weird that this is credited to OutKast. Essentially it’s two solo albums packaged together. The first album, ‘Speakerboxxx’ is Big Boi’s album. Southern Hip Hop inspired by George Clinton’s Parliament-Funkadelic (Hip Hop just seems to keep on returning to this group). ‘The Love Below,’ Andre 3000’s album, is more jazzy, poppy, experimental and reminded me A LOT of Prince.
