OutKast Rankdown (Complete)

[craziaskowboi]

I still have a couple more songs to listen to, but expect my list later tonight.

[SHOOTER]

I’ll try and have this in by Sunday!

[craziaskowboi]

Shit, I'll have to listen to the last couple of songs tomorrow night. I had three rankdowns all due at the same time.

[Lukas]

Just waiting on CF15 and craziaskowboi for their submission. Anyone else is still allowed to submit a last minute submission.

Reveals will begin tomorrow night.

[craziaskowboi]

Finishing mine right now...

[craziaskowboi]

Submittted.

[Lukas]

Just waiting on CF15 ’s list and then I will close this. Other last-minute submissions will still be accepted up until then.

Reveals will begin either tonight or tomorrow morning at the latest.



Pre-reveal questions:

1. Which song do you think will be #1? Anything else you predict to be in the top 5?

2. Which song do you think will be last? Anything else you predict to be in the bottom 5?

3. Which song do you think will have the highest sd?

4. Which song do you think will have the lowest sd?

5. How far do you think your #1 will go?

6. Each of the albums by OutKast have multiple songs in this rankdown (typically around 5). Suppose that a listing of the average ranks of all of the songs for each of the albums were complied. Which album do you think would have the lowest average (did the best in general) and the highest average (did the worst)?

Oh, right. I'll do this now. Shouldn't take me long. Thank you for waiting!

1. Which song do you think will be #1? Anything else you predict to be in the top 5?

- For #1, I'll guess either "Hey Ya!" or "Ms. Jackson", i'm not sure. Top 5, maybe "The Way You Move" & "B.O.B."

2. Which song do you think will be last? Anything else you predict to be in the bottom 5?

- Probably one of the Idlewild songs. "Land Of A Million Drums" is my guess, it was the only one that I haven't heard of before.

3. Which song do you think will have the highest sd?

- "B.O.B."

4. Which song do you think will have the lowest sd?

- "The Train"

5. How far do you think your #1 will go?

- Hopefully at least Top 5

6. Each of the albums by OutKast have multiple songs in this rankdown (typically around 5). Suppose that a listing of the average ranks of all of the songs for each of the albums were complied. Which album do you think would have the lowest average (did the best in general) and the highest average (did the worst)?

- Lowest: Speakerboxxx / The Love Below
Highest: Idlewild

[singingrulebritannia]

In a perfect world, the first 3 albums would dominate this rankdown. But this is not a perfect world

[CF15]

Sent. God, these were so tough to rank. Like 75% of these are deserving of top 5. OutKast rarely ever fail to produce a great beat with equally great rapping. I wish more hip-hop sounded like this, especially in the modern day.

1. Which song do you think will be #1? Anything else you predict to be in the top 5? "Ms. Jackson" could win. "Hey Ya!" and "The Way You Move" will make it far, but I'm sure there will be someone that tanks every pop crossover to prevent it from winning. :sip2: And "B.O.B." will probably make it there. I hope one of my high-ranked songs from one of their 90's albums can make it there, too.

2. Which song do you think will be last? Anything else you predict to be in the bottom 5? My guess is the title song from their last album. That was easily my least favourite one here, and I think the only one with any songs I didn't like at all, though there were still two singles I really liked. I'm sure at least 4 of the bottom 5 will be from that album.

3. Which song do you think will have the highest sd? Maybe "Hollywood Divorce" or "Ghetto Musick".

4. Which song do you think will have the lowest sd? Whatever song ends up in last place, I guess.

5. How far do you think your #1 will go? It's probably obvious which song it is, for anyone who paid attention to the Discord and other rankdowns on here. I'm sure it'll make the top three.

6. Each of the albums by OutKast have multiple songs in this rankdown (typically around 5). Suppose that a listing of the average ranks of all of the songs for each of the albums were complied. Which album do you think would have the lowest average (did the best in general) and the highest average (did the worst)? I'm sure Idlewild will do the worst, and that would make perfect sense considering all their others are so much stronger. I think Stankonia will do the best, since I don't see any of its singles being low.

What is the final list of participants? Lukas

Everyone that I tagged, and you and me

[CF15]

Only 12 people. Oh well. Still excited to see the results!

[CF15]

Forgot to do this, but I might as well:

1-4: 10/10
5-10: 9/10
11-19: 8/10
20: 7/10
21: 6/10
22-24: 5/10 (I imagine these will be among the first few out?)
25: 3/10 (I sincerely hope this one does not escape the bottom five...)

So yeah, this is definitely a stacked-as-hell list!

[SHOOTER]

Drums will definitely be last (although I have a slight nostalgic fondness for it so it wasn’t dead last on mine).

I’ll be shocked if anything other than Hey Ya! or The Way You Move wins (SFSC or MJ *could* be a dark horse) because Pulse always skews towards basic no matter how stacked the deck.

B.O.B. will be top-5 because it’s provocative to be a fan of it (although it deserves top-3 *minimum*).

[willapted33]

hopefully Aquemini and Stankonia dominate - they are the best represented albums imo

[willapted33]

also the way you move better not win good lord

[Ty]

"A Million Drums" and "Hollywood Divorce" are the only two songs I dislike, so good riddance so far.

On the other hand, "Mighty 'O'" and "Morris Brown" are amazing tunes to me-
