Big Boi & Dre Present Outkast
価格: ¥829
Big Boi and Dre Presents... Outkast is not so much of a greatest hits, more of a refresher course for a group with a history nearly as long as their debut album title (Southernplayalisticadillacmusik, anyone?). It showcases the hits from their four studio albums, including 2000's Stankonia, which finally saw them gain recognition outside the world of hip-hop for their brand of genre-switching southern beats and flamboyant personas. Presents... is a glimpse into a style of hip-hop that owes as much to George Clinton's Funkadelic mothership as it does to the wider world of rap with funk workouts (Funkin' Around) be-bop jazz (Movin' Cool) and adrenaline fuelled rump shakers (B.O.B), as well as Miss Jackson, the single that deservedly brought them into the mainstream. Presents... is a great introduction to a group that seems to be hitting their stride, with a lot more to come. --Chris Blenkarn
