No.

But I still have an opinion and that's that Outkast is better.
Sounds like you never bothered with Moz. It's like you're prefer a group you know well against some artist you don't even know. That's not an "unpopular" opinion, that's like a universal given, everybody does that.

So essentially, we shouldn't take your opinion seriously because you haven't listened to the music you're claiming to have an opinion about. Got it.

I've never listened to Tchaikovsky, but it's my opinion that Sum 41 > Tchaikovsky.

Yeah, basically.

Well, I listen to OutKast but...

I really don't see myself liking Morrissey over OutKast at all.

Fair enough.

I like them both. I don't think I could decide who I like more. Of their genres, both artists are exemplary.

Stankonia is my favorite Outkast album and The Queen is Dead is my favorite Smiths album (for what it's worth, Viva Hate is probably my favorite Morrissey solo album). Both albums are probably 9/10 from me.

This probably wouldn't qualify as unpopular, but I'll take Tribe Called Quest over Outkast any day of the week.

Good post.

Secretly, I find Tribe pretty boring and when I saw them on SNL promoting that comeback record in 2016 I actually felt bad for them.

I can't speak to their latest album, only listened to it a number of times and never formed a firm opinion about it.

But I do have a firm opinion about their second album, 'The Low End Theory'. Honestly, that might be my favorite hip hop album period. The effortless fusion of jazz, break-beats, and smooth rapping is a combination that is, at least for me, peerless. A lot of folks like to talk about 'Midnight Marauders', and, as good as that album is, it just doesn't hang with TLET in terms of cohesion.

Surprisingly, their fourth album, 'Beats, Rhymes & Life' is criminally underrated in both public and critical reception. By this point, J Dilla was brought into the fold of production and writing. Perhaps the best example of his influence can be found in the following song, which I'd nominate as the best song of the album.



I'm guessin most of y'all have listened to 'The Low End Theory' before, but if not, quit sleepin.

Hatful Of Hollow is the only Smiths album I need.
