Principally recorded at Stankonia Recording, Atlanta, Georgia.
STANKONIA won the 2002 Grammy Award for Best Rap Album. "Ms. Jackson" won the 2002 Grammy Award for Best Rap Performance By A Duo Or Group.
The Atlanta-based critically acclaimed duo of Big Boi and Dre returns with yet another innovative contribution to hip-hop. STANKONIA, an album borrowing its title from the group-owned recording studio, continues Outkast's tradition of delivering groundbreaking music.
The two MCs cover topics that only they would rap about, over self-produced tracks that only they could make. Songs like "B.O.B. (Bombs Over Baghdad)" are in contrast to the current hip-hop scene, with its bass music background, while "Ms. Jackson," a dedication to a baby's momma's momma, sports a soulful melody in the tradition of Outkast's previous efforts. Either way, Outkast still proves to be in its own elite class.

Spin (01/01/2001)

Entertainment Weekly (11/03/2000)
5 out of 5 - ...Bold and confrontational....coalescing the political and societal challenges of hip hop's past into what is one of the genre's most artistically unorthodox releases so far...
Alternative Press (12/01/2000)
5 out of 5 - ...[They] rip up the rulebook. Tear it into tiny soul-pieces. Build something new....supremely warm, funky and f***ed up music....This is great black music...
Muzik (12/01/2000)
9 out of 10 - ...Introduces a fresh Southern lilt to the gangsta s*** and imbues it with a gacked-up overabundance of reality and imagination....Think Prince's SIGN O'THE TIMES, then multiply it by a million...

Melody Maker (12/05/2000)
...There are so many shifty, elastic clauses...you can't put a finger on 'em, much less cover an ass that shakes from Funkadelic to Prince booty Bass...
The Wire (12/01/2000)
Ranked #42 in NME's Top 50 Albums Of The Year.
NME (12/30/2000)
