Music With Drake - Drake has long been a fan of Dre 3000's and Dre, likewise, has mentioned he's a fan of Drake's. They've even gotten together for Drizzy's sophomore effort Take Care via the track "The Real Her" featuring Lil Wayne. The next time they hit the studio, we're hoping Drake brings musical BFF Noah "40" Shebib along and Three Stacks brings Big Boi. An OVO-Outkast collabo would be awesome.(Photo: Frederick M.

Outkast vs. Rosa Parks - Legendary civil rights figure Rosa Parks filed suit against Atlanta rap duo OutKast in 1999 for their hit song "Rosa Parks," off their third studio album, Aquemini. The case was initially thrown out but then sent to an appeals court. Ultimately, the case was settled in 2005 when the group members and record labels agreed to work with the Rosa and Raymond Parks Institute for Self Development to educate young people about Rosa Parks's role in American history. Outkast also voluntarily participated in the creation of a tribute CD to Parks.(Photo: Kevin Winter/Getty Images)

Record With Frank Ocean and T.I. - Remember how Frank Ocean's "Pink Matter" and T.I.'s "Sorry" got 'Kast fans hype to hear Three Stacks and Big Boi on the same track again (and then remember how Dré shut that down)?

Outkast and Andre 3000 Drop Albums in 2014 - Maybe it's greedy. Maybe a reunion tour should be enough. But it's not. We want more from Outkast than just their planned shows at festival stops in 2014. How about an album, which would be their first together since 2006's Idlewild. And why stop there? How about that long awaited Andre 3000 solo album? Yeah, let's do that.  (Photo: Scott Gries/ImageDirect)

"Hootie Hoo" - "This was the first time I heard someone say 'hootie hoo' before Master P. And 'Funky Ride,' 'Player's Ball' and 'Southernplayalisticadillacmuzik' were the records I jammed the most off of that album." (Photo: Kevin Winter/ImageDirect.)

Cole's pulled a couple of Outkast samples for his catalogue, including one from "SpottieOttieDopalicious" for his "Who Dat" and "Da Art of Storytelling (Part 1)" for his "Land of the Snakes."

"Two Dope Boyz (In A Cadillac)" - "Another classic. It's about funky Cadillac music, riding down and coming down clean. It was crazy, and this was one of those records that made me wish I had a Cadillac back then. I actually tried to remake this record too on the PlayStation, but it didn't quite work out [Laughs]."  (Photo: Kevin Winter/Getty Images)
