21. OutKast - Stankonia
Art Direction & Design: Mike Rush • Photography: Michael Lavine
Stankonia's album cover presented OutKast's Andre Benjamin and Antwan Patton as they were and are—strong, smart, funky and ready to "[give] the youth the truth from this booth." Most striking of all is the stark, black-and-white-American-flag backdrop, hinting at a separate America—a place that exists apart from the country experienced by the masses. A place called Stankonia. Fun fact? This flag is actually enormous and hangs on the wall in the tracking room at OutKast's northwest Atlanta recording studio. We saw it there, and it was awesome.
