This week’s must-see single: Outkast’s Prototype
The Times
The Times

The hits just keep coming from OutKast’s magnificent double album, Speakerboxx/The Love Below. Or rather, the hits keep coming from the latter, Andre 3000’s brilliant half of the bargain.

And Andre keeps making great videos — to follow Hey Ya and Roses we now have this lush, squelchy ballad with a promo featuring weird, jerky aliens and a girl who is a dead ringer for the poor unfortunate lass in Lionel Richie’s chunderful Hello video. It’s heavy on the sly Andre 3000 wit and it looks great. Another surefire Top 10 single, then.
