ChadMSep 1, 2006There is nothing new or inventive on this album, there sound seems to be getting old, while at the same time, straying from what made them who they are. I know they are expiramental and trying to do something special but they just seem to miss the boat with this one.

Rolling StoneTheir weirdest music yet. [24 Aug 2006, p.89]

Ambitious but flawed, at turns stunning, maddening and confusing, Idlewild is a curate's egg - but the good parts are implausibly delicious.

OutKast have stretched rap's boundaries to the breaking point before, but this time their experiments come across as gimmicky or strained.
