Ok, we'll bite.

It seems blogs all over are ablaze with their uber-credible picks for what are the most delicious tracks on the new Outkast soundtrack to the movie of the same name Idlewild (2006). While im going to admit, yes it is extremely crucial for blogs to stay unique and fresh (as the most devine 20jazz&funkgreats shows) however sometimes, just sometimes you gotta buy into what everyone else is doing. Everyone is talking about Outkast but unlike Sam Champion, this is for all the right reasons.

Idlewild (2006) as expected gives us all of the same from Outkast but everytime warping that pre-conceived notion just that little bit further. Not so much pushing the envelope, rather just lifting the edges ready for opening your neatly pressed letter.

Unlike The Love Below / Speakerboxx, I would confidently say the input of Big Boi far outweighs the contribution of Andre3000 in both quality and quantity but that is not to detract from this duo both bring their own flavoursome dish to the table.

Without further b.s.

Whiteboydancefloor's Idlewild (2006) Hot Picks

Outkast - Call the Law (feat. Janelle Monae) This track simply oozes with instant groove and jazz infused seduction. This is the type of music that your Christina Aguleiras (cant even spell that hoes name), Kelis, Alicia Keys and all the others have been falling short of making for so long. No hole barred pop with a refreshingly seductive element of soul. Janelle Monae sizzles! Pop music critics beware, this song will infest your groove thang and make babies!

Outkast - Life is a musical This track is Andre3000 influenced right down to the very last synthesised note. Lyrically and ideologically basic but as "hey ya" demonstrated, such comments aren't a criticism of Outkast merely an observation. Homeboys n girls beware, the real cool kids will be out in their thunderbirds with the hoods down, speakers pumping to this one on a summers afternoon, sippin on authentic lemonade.

Another little present for you all. Triple J Unearthed is on again and it's producing alittle from column A and alittle from column b. Vomit like the Angry Pandas and quality like The Little Stevies. So with that in mind, i give you a strip down, honest track from The Little Stevies.
