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.

"Crumblin' Erb" - "That’s another record where they brought the soul and the funk. I remember trying to remake that record, but it didn't turn out so well [Laughs]. I think Organized Noize had a very keen way of being able to make very melodic records but still have that bass and that sub and Kast's verses were crazy on that record too."  (Photo: REUTERS/Lucas Jackson /Landov)

Juxtaposing Pair - Now this, we love. Dre is giving us cowboy cool while Big Boi dappers up in a Japanese-inspired bomber and matching bucket hat at VH1’s 2006 Hip Hop Honors ceremony. Nice.   (Photo: REUTERS/Lucas Jackson /Landov)

ATLiens Meet the Good Kid - By now we all know Outkast is among the rapppers who had a profound influence on Kendrick Lamar along his path to stardom. It only makes sense that the Compton MC team with the iconic group to record what could be one of the era defining moments in hip hop.(Photo: Scott Gries/ImageDirect/Getty Images)

Big Boi Blues - It’s not the sea of blue that’s stealing the spotlight here, but rather Dre’s platinum Mohawk and Big Boi’s beaded box braids. Only Outkast.  (Photo: Scott Gries/ImageDirect)

"Liberation" - "I remember being in Marietta, Ga., at probably one of the downest parts if my life, just creating music and trying to come up with content and not really knowing how I'm going to pay my bills and things of that nature and just hearing that song and the singing... The transitions from Cee-Lo Green singing to Big Rube's poem to back to Erykah Badu singing…the song got me through a lot of dark times in my life and it still does the same thing for me. So now I ultimately strive to make records where I can touch people in that same manner," K.R.I.T. told BET.com."The record to me sounds like one of those records where they were like, 'let's just do it for the people.’ It had nothing to do with trying to rap or spit the most, and even Big Boi was on that thing singing.”(Photo: Jeff Kravitz/FilmMagic, Inc)
