The post OutKast Announces Stankonia 25th Anniversary Edition appeared first on Consequence.
If Dua Lipa covers and washing machine jingles aren’t enough to satisfy, OutKast have announced a 25th anniversary deluxe edition of Stankonia.
Due out October 31st from Legacy Recordings, Stankonia (25th Anniversary) is a three vinyl set packed with musical and merchandise goodies galore. Chief among those bounties are three new bonus tracks: “Speed Ballin’” (released on streaming platforms for the very first time); remixes of “B.O.B.” by both the Beat Bullies and Cutmaster Swiff; and the Goodie Mob-featuring “Sole Sunday.”
Meanwhile, the piece de resistance of the packaging is brand new cover art from André 3000. There’s also unreleased photos taken during the album’s 2000 promotional cycle, a glow-in-the-dark poster, and deluxe gatefold packaging. Sadly, they didn’t go for our idea of selling “‘Gasoline Dreams’-scented air fresheners.” The CD and vinyl versions of Stankonia are available now for pre-order.
For fans seeking even more OutKast merch, the duo’s teamed up with Ceremony of Roses for an exclusive merch drop on October 2nd. The limited edition drop includes tees with graphics taken from the original Stankonia photoshoot, a “neon-inspired Mount Rushmore-style graphic of OutKast,” and hoodies, caps, and posters. Fans will also be able to purchase all-new merch, including an André 3000-designed poster featuring an alternate Stankonia CD cover as well as hoodies and a corduroy cap. You can also pre-order everything via OutKast’s official merch store.
This release bonanza comes mere weeks before OutKast is inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. (Yes, still-ravenous merch-heads, there will also be a limited-edition reversible bomber jacket to coincide with the November 8th ceremony.) And while there’s many accomplishments that lead to this honor, Stankonia has to be up there in encapsulating OutKast’s musical/cultural contributions. The LP revolutionized the way hip-hop is made and consumed across the board, creating a new regime of inventive, left-of-center music that resonates to this day. Stankonia helped rap embrace all that was weird, silly, and wild (but still emotionally robust), and in doing, so nothing has ever heard, looked, or felt the same.
If you’d prefer to celebrate your OutKast fandom in a slightly less commercial manner, Legacy and Sony are also launching the “So Fresh, So Green” initiative. On October 29th, fans across Atlanta will gather for a community recycling drive at the Headland Delowe shopping center. (OK, yes, the first 100 people on site will also receive a limited-edition OutKast T-shirt, but think not of “Ms. Jackson” but rather Mother Earth!)
