Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Don't Waste Your Money!
This cd was weird and horrible both at the same time! I can not describe my disappointment. If you really like Benjamin then you might like it, but if you love Outkast...don't buy it!



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Good songs, but where's the soundtrack?
The movie of "Idlewild" itself had over 25 songs in it. So I didn't expect the soundtrack to have all the songs from the movie. But the weird thing is that there are actually 25 tracks on the CD, but only 7 of the songs are from the film! The soundtrack is still well worth the purchase. Listed below are the consistencies and the missing songs from the film.

The only tracks that are included on the CD
which are also in the movie are:

1. Morris Brown (Big Boi, with Sleepy Brown & Scar)
2. Chronomentrophobia (Outkast)
3. Makes No Sense (Outkast)
4. PJ & Rooster (Outkast)
5. Mutron Angel (Whild Peach)
6. Greatest Show on Earth (Macy Gray and Outkast)
7. When I Look in Your Eyes (Outkast)

The following songs are from the film, but are not included on this soundtrack and are available on other albums (as indicated).

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Outkast takes a risk - and wins!
Okay... so the critics don't like it. Big deal! Outkast did an amazing job blending different musical styles and they've created a fun musical that is great when I'm driving and wonderful for swing, too!

While I'm at it, the movie is also 5 stars and worth every minute. Andre3k actually stretches by portraying an uptight shy man, not his usual persona. Both the CD and the movie are a fun romp!



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Im Giving 1 star for the reviews below...
Because they're too damn long! I mean who has time to read all that, let alone write all that. People can we keep the reviews down to like 1 or 2 short paragraphs please?!



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Dissapointing But Still Solid (Rating: 7 out of 10- -3.5 stars)
Outkast is probably one of my most influentual groups to come out of the hometown of ATL. That being said, this album was a slight dissapointment from all other Outkast albums that I've heard. Being based off the movie "Idlewild" I figured this would be a nice album in connection to the movie it was based on. Like a lot of people noticed, this album is like "Speakerboxxx/The Love Below". In fact it's a little too much like it (I'm suprised it wasn't a double disc as well). With Andre 3000 doing more singing, he sounds a little off with his vocals. I understand that he was experimenting with his singing vocals on "The Love Below", but I just wasn't feeling it on "Idlewild". Newer fans od Outkast (post "Stankonia") will like it, but those who have been down since "Southernplaya..." will be scratching their head. Nown old fans feel relieved when they hear Andre spit some rhymes, like on "Hollywood Divorce" and "Mighty O", two of the best songs on this album. Personally this is the Andre I wanted to hear. If I wanted to hear him sing, I would have stuck with their double disc.

As for Big Boi, he does a good job pulling his weight on his solo tracks. Another favorite song on here was "The Train", that was done by him solo. His style really hasn't changed much since the last album, which is actually good for me. He can still pull some dope rhymes. Some of his solo songs I wasn't feeling as well, like "Morris Brown".

Overall this is a solid album to me. Not as good as other Outkast albums, but it's still good. I just don't like the fact that there are a bunch of Big Boi and Andre solo songs with some of the songs they are on together (about three total), and then called an Outkast CD. As I said before, most of their previous albums they were rhyming toghether and very little singing (i.e. "Funky Ride" & "Liberation"). Also I found there were very limited guests from the Dungeon Family (except for Sleep Brown, Killer Mike, Khujo from Good Mob), as well as others like Macy Gray. I still love Outkast as one of my favorite groups, and how much sucessful they have became, especially with a good movie along with this. But if I had to choose their worst album, it would be this one. But thats not saying much, because all their albums are worth hearing.
