5 YEAR REWIND: UGK + OUTKAST
posted by O.W.



(As part of our 5th year anniversary, we're revisiting 20 key songs. This post was originally published on April 5, 2007).

UGK feat. Outkast: International Players Anthem
From Underground Kingz (2007)


(New notes:) Hands-down, one of the best hip-hop songs of the decade.

Andre 3000 kick off verse? Check.
Pimp C still here and kickin' verses? Check.
Willie Hutch's "I Choose You" loop? Check. [1]
Slick video? Check.

[1] When I was waiting for a delayed flight at JFK's Terminal 7 on Sunday night, "I Choose You" came on over the terminal loudspeakers. So proper.
