April 24: Outkast - The Love Below 

It only took two days to get sick of new wave, so I headed towards hip-hop. This is Andre 3000's half of the recent double album, and it's really not hip-hop at all; if anything, it sounds kind of like a '60s lounge record crossed with Prince. Andre has really moved out into the stratosphere here, and it's awesome. I don't really understand how this won so many Nickelodeon Kids' Choice awards last month, though, because Andre is all about the sex. From "Spread" : "I don't want to move too fast but / Can't resist your sexy ass / Just spread, spread for me." Now THAT's ice cold! Also, the liner notes feature a painting of Andre as a centaur surrounded by naked women.
