On this date, on the flip of the century, Huge Boi and Andre 3000 dropped their fourth album entitled Stankonia on the Laface/Arista imprint.
Following up on their profitable Aquemini LP, Outkast got down to problem themselves creatively and that they did; Stankonia ended up being one of many duo’s most profitable industrial albums, going gold within the first week after its launch.
A number of the album’s main singles embody the newborn mama drama anthem “Ms. Jackson,” the rhythmic hook of the catchy “So Recent So Clear,” and the well timed and socially aware “Bombs Over Baghdad (B.O.B.).” With strong manufacturing from each Organized Noize and Earthtone III, this album is among the South’s most impactful tasks so far.
Salute to Organized Noize, 3 Stacks, Huge Boi, and their total group for bringing us such a timeless Hip-Hop traditional!
