Did anybody pick this one up or at least hear it? It is a surprisingly boring album, they could have cut off the second half and they would have been left with something decent. Even the highlights aren't really that great, at least not Outkast-quality great.

    I've been on the fence about it, but I'm leaning more toward not picking it up. The song I heard didn't do much for me.
    Statistically speaking, you're more likely to be pitied by Mr. T than you are to have feet.

    Which did you hear? I belive Morris Brown(more of a rap song) and Idlewild Blue(country-ish blues-y song) are the two singles. If you are a fan then the album is worth for the handful of good songs, plus it is Andre & Big Boi rapping on the same song for the first time since Stankonia. But there are far too many misses on the album.

    Just got it today. It's not too bad(1 listen) but I don't considered it official because it was kinda thrown together as opposed to the movie portion of it.

    Didn't Andre and Big Boi rap on Ghettomusick of the Speakerboxxx album?
    NERDS!
