The bouncy beats are addicting, and the sheer output of designer hook-laden bangers is ridiculous. It’s dirty south hip-hop with a wide array of instrumentation and styles piled on top, named for the studio Big Boi and Andre 3000 bought in Atlanta. The pace of this album is much faster than their previous Aquemini, and it’s hard not to let it get you wound up. This will increase your pace if you’re on a treadmill, or your blood pressure if you’re sitting on the couch.

From the roundup Some Excellent Albums from 2000.
