Quite unusual for me to be foot tapping along to this kind of thing, but I really liked Hey Ya! So if anybody does like them, and can recommend other tracks for me I'd be most grateful! (not including that sorry miss jackson one, got that :smile: )

Well, they're the only hip-hop type band I can stand- and I really do hate hip-hop more than 99% of the earth's population- possibly because they do actually have some talent, can sing, and don't use the same 2 second long sample of someone else's song in their 'songs'...

I dunno... Alot of their singles are good (Rosa Parks, Miss Jackson, Hey Ya, etc.) but their CD's aren't the greatest....

They really are funny as hell on some songs though, so it may be worth just grabbing a few at random.

eh, the only Outkast I can stand is Bombs Over Baghdad and The Whole World.

I'll take my guitar riffs and heavy double bass any day over it.

Ditto. They have great singles, but when you get their CD, it's clear they can't produce that kind of material all the time. A lot of the stuff on the CD's seem like filler material, really. Kind of strange how each member produces their own CD though - somewhat defeats the purpose of being a group.

Usually, this kind of music is waay out of my interest, but I also liked Speedballin' from the "Tomb Raider" soundtrack.

They've got some pretty good samples in that song.

I'm not exactly the biggest fan of OutKast, but I can't deny that 'Hey Ya!' is bloody catchy!

all ive heard is hey ya on the radio... thats all right (though i personally like foo fighters/grinspoon type stuff)

you ever seen the video clip for hey ya? its interesting to watch, just to see whats going to happen next (tho the whole time your thinking "wtf is this and why am i watching it")
