Шаблон:Infobox album Шаблон:Music ratings Big Boi and Dre Present… Outkast is the only compilation album by the American Southern hip hop duo Outkast. It was released December 4, 2001 through LaFace/Arista Records. The compilation is composed of four new tracks, including three new songs—"Funkin' Around", "The Whole World" and "Movin' Cool (The After Party)", as well as five songs from Southernplayalisticadillacmuzik, one from ATLiens, and three each from Aquemini and Stankonia.

Recording sessions took place at Stankonia Recording and DARP Studios in Atlanta. Production was handled by Earthtone III and Organized Noize. It features guest appearances from Goodie Mob, Joi, Killer Mike and Sleepy Brown.

The album peaked at number 18 on the Billboard 200 and number 4 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums in the United States. On March 6, 2002, it was certified Platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America for 1,000,000 copies sold in the US. It also made it to No. 25 in New Zealand and No. 78 in Germany. In 2021, the album received Silver certification by the British Phonographic Industry for selling 60,000 units in the UK. Its lead single, "The Whole World", was charted in several countries and won a Grammy Award for Best Rap Performance by a Duo or Group in 2003.

Background

Although the compilation encompasses several hit songs from the duo, Big Boi and André 3000 don't consider it to be a "greatest hits" or "best-of" release.[1][2] Big Boi described the album as "more like a refresher course… summer school on Outkast 101", and stated "[we're] just letting all the fans that went and got Stankonia know that there were three albums that came out before that. We picked some of the favourite songs from all the albums [for the compilation]." André added "after the Stankonia album, we gained a lot of new fans. They didn't know about Southernplayalistic, ATLiens, Aquemini. We had to give them the beginning Шаблон:Sic to let them know where we're at right now".[1]

The title track from ATLiens is mentioned as being included on the compilation in the essay contained in the booklet, but is not actually featured (it is assumed it was dropped at a late stage of the album's production); however, ATLiens is included on the New Zealand release of the album.[3]Шаблон:Better source
