New Outkast Song: "The Mighty O"

i've got a VERY bad feeling, that sounds like a lil' jon beat. but it is a little sophsticated for lil' jon.

dope song.

they are sporting their mid to late nineties flows on this one. i have a hard time believing its new.

man they stole this song idea from me! go to cd baby.com and listen to my song called "IN THE KITHCEN" or www.myspace.com/durahale. outkasts manager heard my album and said it was tight and said he was givin it to la reid and 5months later i hear this song! they crooked people! and i was an outkast fan to heart

Well............it does have the similar chorus...........

I agree...same chorus, but I don't think you can say that they STOLE that from you...that ORIGINALLY came from the late great Cab Calloway's "Minnie The Moocher."

Yeah! Good luck! You can look at it this way. You have the goods that established artists like. Now find a legit producer. p.s. good artist can spit out better fire if your claim proves to be true.

YEAH I AGREE. YALL CHECK ME OUT IN THIS MONTHS EDITION OF THE SOURCE MAGAZINE, DMX IS ON THE COVER. IM ON PAGE 100. HOLLA BACK.

YEAH YOU RIGHT, BUT THEY JUST STOLE MY CONCEPT! MY SONG IN THE KITCHEN HAS ALREADY BEEN PLAYED ON RADIO STATIONS. CHECK ME OUT IN THE NEW SOURCE MAGAZINE, DMX IS ON THE COVER, IM ON PAGE 100. PEACE

Nigga...Please...

It's an OK song. It looks like a grower for me. It's not immediate like 'Hey Ya' or 'The Whole World' or 'So Fresh, So Smooth'. I belive I read in Billboard that this is the first single. The guys are notorious for being perfectionists and will probably tinker with it all the way up until August so I'm sure we haven't heard the final product.

I have read these comments about the new outkast song. If the beat was stolen form the guy on hear previously, then that measn you too stole - because I am from DC and this is a Go-Go beat! I can understand your frustration if you beleive you are due some royalty. Either way, this sng is hot to me. It is them taking it back to lyrics over hard beats. and since I like Go-Go, then i love the beat.

Amazing song, even though the chorus was probably copied from Dura Hale. By the way, about how long ago did you give the song to Outkast's manager?

MightY O is banging and just wait untill ya'll hear the rest of the album. Rico Wade and the original dungeon family crew did the track and leads us to hear many other good things from the makers of that Southernplayalistic style. And believe it or not, Mighty O was cut in late March and Dre snapped out of his rapping retirement to bust on this one. Not to be outdone, Bigg Boi snapped on the track and even has another smoker on the album reminicent of so fresh so clean called N2U written by yours truly.

I think that the new song is hot and displays Outkast's original style. It's the sound that they've been making since the beginning. I'm glad they've goten back together for another album as a whole.

YEA IT'S AIGHT BUT THEY JUST STOLE MY CONCEPT CHECK ME OUT ON PAGE 100 OF THIS MONTHS JAZZ TIMES DMX IS ON THE COVER PEACE.

man fam sound like Andre. i ont know if u tryin to sound like him or not but u do. and how we know u sent the track to they manager? u coulda just had the same idea and they just were in a position to put it out before u. but if u did send it, u gotta chalk it up anyway and move on yo. it happens that way live and learn

Dura Hale. Your're one ignant & overly arragant ass mf. get over yourself. The Outkast track is just a 1st single to their movie Idlewild which is set in the 1930s/'40s around the time Cab Calloway's joint came out. Your song is aiight. You sound like you biting Kast anyway.

Anything Outkast drops is FIRE!!! including this song

That songs has nothing to do with you dude... the cab calloway sample is in cartoons, so i doubt you are the only person smart enough to use it in a song. plus your songs are garbage, LA probably threw that shit away

Dura Hale u idiot . . . do u really believe that one of the greatest rap groups ever, that have won numerous Grammys, including Album of the Year, sold millions of records, and are well-known for their creativity and imaginative concepts would have to steal from you?? Don't make me laugh . . . get a life and stop hatin'.

leave it to The Mighty O to come off fresh and clean once again. Kast continues to change the game instead of playing in it.

Dura Hale: Man, shut the f_ck up!

Dura Hale You silly stupid rabbit... do you honestly think that you can compete with Outkast? Come on now, nobody even knows who the hell u are, let alone cares about your allegations.

Well Dura Hale. I guess bad press is better than no press huh. I bet you love that some cats checked out yo site huh. the most hits you got all year huh. Unfortunately, no one cares about your record or your allegations. And IF Kast stole your idea (which i doubt)they did a hella lot betta w/ the Cab Calloway chant than you eva could've formulated. Plus they raps destroyed your Andre imitation. But you ain't hater, can't tell.

don't know much about making music, but Mighty-O donuts are some of the best

YO Mighty O is fire. It's that old funky back in the day outkast. The way the Andre 3000 speaks on the people who talk about him is bananaz. N Big Boi's flow on it is rediculous. Man if you dont like this outkast track you a hater it's classic. They a the A-Town veterians and flag carriers. Plus Andre is actually rapping OMG this song is fire. Outkast came back hard. It'z all luv OUTKAST 4 Life

I don't know if it's old or not, but Big Boi does say, "Decipher words like the code of Da Vinci" in his verse, so I think it's new.

Hey can anyone tell me what "Mighty O" means? is it for Outkast?

this is the joint...the shift gaurds between factional towards fictional/.

mighty o

A LIL JON BEAT....?.....? i GUESS YOU DONT KNOW BETTA...YOU MAY HAVE BEEN BEAT WITH A SOCK FULL OF SODA CANS WHEN YOU WERE A BABY....THAT 808 IS A SONG THAT COMES FROM EARLY DAYS OF SLAVERY...FIELD SLAVES SANG THIS WHILE WORKING THE SOUTH..

I need lyrics for the song mighty O,and I was wondering if any of you have them

Are they talking about anyone in particular cuz they spoke about hearing someone's subliminals loud and clear, and that they are king(S), and must have said other stuff on the low bcuz he (BB) says decifer his words like teh code of divinci, blah blah do go against me, , , sounds like daddy home TI, Luda, Jeezy and who er else bette get back in the house.

Is "The Mighty O" on a CD yet?

This is a classic Outkast/Dungeon family production. They took it back to the basics with this one. It's what everybody (real Outkast fans since Southernplayalistic)have been longing for( since their new "pop" format). Unfortunately, from my understanding, this was just a tease, because they are still doing this album with separate LP's like the last one. I read an interview in this months KING magazine with Kast, and when asked if they was going to bring it back like that once again, Dre said (and I quote)..."That's what everybody is hoping for, but I don't know. There aint sh*t to talk about.-"
Unfortunate, but it is what it is...But as far as the "Mighty O" track goes...ORIGINAL OLD SCHOOL, VINTAGE flows for the new school and all the HEADS like ME! Certified DOPE! Hands down. Nuff said.

Big Boi came back on this track. I'm happy. On Spekerboxxx he was marginal. After listening to Dre's 1/2 of the album about 6x (didn't get it at all in the 1st listening), I realized he's a musical genius and ahead of his time like Hendrix, Marley, etc..

But Big Boi's 1/2 dissapointed me. With Mighty O and Idlewild Blues, I expect big things.. This Mighty O also combines many of their sytings; old & new (Rosa Parks, Southerplayalistik, So Fresh So Clean, The Whole World)

These are the only guys in hip-hop who transcend the genre.. In 30 years their CDs will be studied like the greats.. Word..

If you people dont know Outkast are thieves! They steal song concepts from smaller artists! If you dont believe that you are in a dream world! All I have to say is go to I Tunes and download In The Kitchen and then download The Mighty O and listen to Andre mention "Hale" three times in his verse. He is obviously referring to a person and not a place and he even says in the vershe, "look I bit ya hook"! If you head in Outkast's ass that farr that you cant see that he blatantly said he stole someone's hook then I feel sorry for you mentally handicapped individuals. God bless you in all your ignorance.

Loud Mouth!

AND TO ALL THE FOOLS TALKIN DOWN ABOUT DURA HALE. GET OFF OUTKAST'S DICK AND BE A MAN. MAJOR LABEL ARTISTS ARE KNOWN FOR STEALING SONG CONCEPTS BECAUSE THEY KNOW THEY WONT GET CAUGHT. FOR YOU TO INSULT AN INDIVIDUAL BECAUSE YOU WANNA FUCK ANDRE AND BIG BOI IS SOME EVIL SHIT! THAT IS WHY NONE OF YOU WILL EVER GO ANYWHERE IN LIFE. THE SONG "IN THE KITCHEN" WAS RELEASED IN 205 AND WRITTEN IN 2004. IF YOU GO GET THE JUNE ISSUE OF THE SOURCE WITH DMX ON THE FRONT COVER YOU WILL SEE A REVIEW ON HIS ALBUM. THEY ALSO TALK ABOUT "IN THE KITCHEN"! YOU NIGGAS NEED TO GROW UP AND ACT YOUR AGE!

Woooow.

Y'ALL ARE STUPID, THAT SONG IS FROM CAB CALLOWY A JAZZ MUSICIAN BACK IN THE 20S AND 30S

Loud Mouth, u need 2 get off of Dura Hale nuts. Aint nobody disputin whether or not Outkast used his stuff, theirs is just better. And u obviously aint got nothin betta 2 do with yo Sherlock Holmes investigative researchin ass. Yeah we know u got a library card while u lookin up dates and sh** but it dont mean nothin 2 nobody cuz Outkast is doin they thang with the song, not ya mans and them. So shut the hell up and when u roll over tonite u can tell Dura Hale 2 do the same

mzprissy,
You obviously didn't know that Loud Mouth is Dura Hale's promoter when you posted the ignorance above. Due to the fact that Outkast has put out nothing but WACK BULLSHIT since Aquemini I have no doubt that they bit the shit (they told you in the fucking song). BITCH.
Keeps it fresh Wreck Tha Mic, your time is coming, it's apparent that Outkast's is now over for sure. Andre still trying to be the next Jimi Hendrix ol stupid fuckin hey yah ass mother fucker. Paint a picture mother fucker, and make it your own.
