Outkast will go down as one of the best hip hop duos in history … but don’t cross your fingers for a reunion cuz Sleepy Brown says the group is done for good.
TMZ Hip Hop caught Mr. Brown out at LAX Monday … and with the 20th anniversary of Kast’s monster album “Speakerboxxx/The Love Below” approaching, we wanted to see if there’s any chance they use that milestone to slip back into the music mix.

The Organized Noize producer laid out the obvious for us … André 3000‘s cosmic defection from the group caused their indefinite end, and not even a celebration of one of the only rap projects to win Album of the Year at the Grammys can resurrect the movement.
Sleepy and Big Boi have since joined forces … releasing their joint album “Big Sleepover” in 2021 and still wooing audiences past with their chart-topping classic “The Way You Move!!!”
Outkast has one of the best catalogs in rap music history as well. When it comes to ranking their albums, Sleepy feels the group’s 1998 album “Aquemini” holds the 👑.
The eclectic LP spawned the classic records “Rosa Parks,” “SpottieOttieDopaliscious” and was the first album from southern rappers to get a perfect rating in “The Source” magazine back in the day.
Sleepy says each Outkast album allowed fans to choose their own adventure but “Aquemini” takes the nod because it showcased both Big and André’s ability as producers!!!
