Every quote links to the moment in the episode."Outkast, 'Aquemini.' This is a big record for everybody who lives in Atlanta. It was sort of the beginning of when the Dungeon Family and everybody associated with Outkast and Organized Noize as well were just doing kind of crazy, next-level stuff. And this record, to this day... it was made in '97 and came out '98. I mean, to this day it holds up. The amount of songs here that have influenced hip hop since then is pretty unbelievable."Watch this moment
"This is a super influential record for me and it's so short. I think it's eight songs and the two halves are really distinct as well. Pretty much every single moment of this album is incredible."Watch this moment
"Time Fades Away and 'On The Beach' by Neil Young. This is a super influential record for me and it's so short. I think it's eight songs and the two halves are really distinct as well. Pretty much every single moment of this album is incredible."Watch this moment
"This is one of my favorite records of all time, Bonnie Prince Billy, 'Ease Down The Road.' Just another timeless sounding album. The lyrics are some of my favorites."Watch this moment
