com, the Sell on Etsy app, and the Etsy app, as well as the electricity that powers Etsy’s global offices and employees working remotely from home in the US. The Organized Noize production crew is sublime, working with live musicians and crafting hook-filled soundscapes that complement Big Boi and Andre Benjamin's melodic patter.Continuing the celebration of Hip Hop’s 50 th anniversary, Sony Music Entertainment (SME) and Certified will release Outkast’s Aquemini 25 TH Anniversary Edition and Speakerboxxx/The Love Below 20 TH Anniversary Edition in partnership with Get On Down.

What's more, it's their third record, and they've yet to fall into a rut--and that alone puts them in line for an award. In celebration of the album reaching its 13x Platinum milestone, Certified is giving one lucky fan a chance to win a certified custom plaque. Then, rap groups from the South really took off, and took the sound of the South with them, far from the boundaries set by Big Boi and Dre. Outkast takes an everyday situation and turns it into an amazing storytelling journey into outer space.There are some great guests- Wu-Tang's Raekwon on Skew It on the Bar-B, easily one of the great Wu-related tracks of recent years (when the albums became less enjoyable)- up there with Killah Priest's One Step Up, ODB's Recognize or Cappadonna's If It's Alright With You. The record also received rave reviews from music critics, who praised the album's musicality and unique lyrical themes.

Get On Down continues to support Hip-Hop culture by releasing and distributing albums by independent Hip-Hop artists and producers from the East Coast to the West Coast and Down South. More recently Get On Down has added funk, soul, and jazz albums that were integral to the foundations of Hip-Hop.

The title track is a stoned-funk that opens with a mantra "Even the sun goes down, heroes eventually die/Horoscopes often lie and sometimes 'y'/Nothing is for sure, nothing is for certain, nothing lasts forever/But until they close the curtain, it's him and I, Aquemini". It takes a few listens to sink in, but on Aquemini, Outkast have pulled off a rare feat in hip-hop: they've made a good record that's a masterpiece of subtlety.
