With Outkast you have to expect the unexpected. As tired as that phrase is,it is true with this group.Somehow when you think they have peaked,they manage to surprise.Four classic albums in a row proves how consistent they are maybe th most consistent in hip hop ever. Now I remember Big Boi saying they had some three albums worth of material they arealso looking to release this year. I can't wait for that either.
I Like them but they are No Public Enemy,NWA,Run DMC IMHO.I put them alongside EPMD.


IMHO they are more consistent and combine the best traits of PE,Run DMC,NWA,and EPMD.
No Comment.public Enemy was like Bob Dylan of there Era because You listened to Every Detail,Run DMC were the Beatles of Rap they did it all,NWA with Dr.Dre&Ice Cube??? in there Prime Jerri Curl Years??? Outkast can't hang with them three Groups IMHO.Maybe EPMD? but EPMD had a strong hand in the WestCoast Sound so no I can't quite give them that One either.I'd put them behind all of those Groups.


I agree with you as far as Run DMC doing it all. They opned up all kinds of doors for hip hop music,Public Enemy created one of the greatest albums in music ever, and NWA did their thing but as much as I love some NWA they were a little overrated.EPMD were the first to use the More Bounce sample and yeah they did that for the west coast sound.But if you look at consistency,creativity,originality, among other traits no group past or present is overall better than Outkast.
Run DMC,Public Enemy&NWA are the Main Rap groups Ever IMHO over the past 20 years.Outkast are Talented but also Have that Cross-Over thing going for them&they kinda fit in.Run DMC were all that.Public Enemy was like a School.NWA:Dr.Dre,Eazy E&Ice Cube.they smear Outkast IMHO.Dr.Dre alone Nuff Said.Ice Cube Nuff Said.EPMD Wicked&were rolling for a Good Minute.
I Forgot all about A Tribe Called Quest.



I was going to mention them as well. I respect your musical knowledge but I will just have to disagree with you on this one. I can't see Outkast getting smeared lyrically,or creatively by any of these groups.

I Respect you as well but I just don't feel that Outkast measures up with the Main Rap Groups IMHO overall.I'd put Outkast anywhere between 4th-6th but not with Run DMC,NWA&Public Enemy in there Hey Days NAW!
