"Outkast - Aquemini"


GREAT album. I don't consider myself a rap fan at all, but Outkast does it for me.

Thanks for posting.


I agree with Lauren Hill and Outkast. I still listen to Lil' Kim and some others at times. While it doesn't "scare" me. Some of the themes just get old. I understand a lot of it is meant to raise awareness and not just "be cool like a gangsta type of crap".

I would argue that a lot of these albums tent to focus on themes other than violence.
