ATLIENS ATLiens is the second studio album by the American hip hop duo Outkast made up of BIG BOI and DRE. The album features outer space-inspired production sounds, with Outkast and producers Organized Noize incorporating elements of dub and gospel into the compositions. Several songs feature the duo's first attempts at producing music by themselves. Lyrically, the group discusses a wide range of topics including urban life as hustlers, existential introspection, and extraterrestrial life. The album's title is a portmanteau of "ATL" (an abbreviation of Atlanta, Georgia, the duo’s hometown) and "aliens", which has been interpreted by critics as a commentary about the feeling of being isolated from American culture.

Both our pups Big Boi and Dre are true titans with a unique flow. ~And Both of them command attention when you see them and hear their voices. Just like their namesakes, they have something to say and the corso community will be reading from their manuscripts.
