Yeah, my faves are Stankonia and Aquemini.
I used to put Speakerboxx/TLB to a pedestal. I still think "Hey ya" is just one of the best fucking singles of all time, but it's a pop song. I prefer TLB to Speakerboxx on the whole, and Stankonia just owns them both.
What I don't like about OutKast is that the more the experimented, the less their music sounded like hip-hop. In contrast to Kanye for instance, who is still so undeniably hip-hop, even when he's making electro post-punk shit.
I think Speakerboxx/TLB was a triumphant album, and that if it hadn't been made the world would probably be a shittier place. But it's not the OutKast I fell in love with.
