"as Andre 3000 makes no attempts to deny, to get laid." ?

Best Selling Rap Album of All Time
According to this list: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_best-selling_albums_in_the_United_States this album appears to be the best selling Rap Album in American history. Can anyone confirm this? This fact would certainly seem worthy of being mentioned in the article.
That list has 2pac listd as selling more than Outkast. 143.166.255.57 16:01, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

Why is the 'Critical Reaction' section of this all about this albums charting and not about "critics received this well or were outraged" or something along those lines? --Rhearnct 18:55, 25 October 2007 (UTC)
Separate Articles?
I believe Speakerboxxx and The Love Below deserve their own articles: they are entirely different kettles of fish, and IMO this article is a tad lacking. There is no description of the themes, or especially the running thread of The Love Below. Indeed, I would refer to it as a concept album. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 172.188.43.237 (talk) 20:04, 7 December 2007 (UTC)
I agree with this comment, I came to the page expecting a more in-depth discussion of (in particular) Andre3000's approach to writing his second album, theories, conjectures, and ideas relating to it where appropriate. The discs should be considered seperate, as they were written seperately, and intended that way originally. Jcook5 (talk) 21:02, 13 May 2008 (UTC)

Is "The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill" not considered a rap/hip hop album? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Paulshrug (talk • contribs) 09:56, 11 July 2009 (UTC)
Concept albums?
This article is included to "Concept album" category. Are there any reliable sources that classify this album as "Concept album"? If there are none, it should be excluded from the category. Netrat (talk) 23:03, 9 August 2009 (UTC)

Grooming for Big Boi:
Grooming for Big Boi on this Album was done by Photographer/Groomer Lavish J. When doing grooming work, he was affectionatley called "J the Barber" by the Stankonia camp. He has done work with Farnsworth Bently, Donnel Jones, Ludacris and many others within the entertainment field. He recently did photography to be used as promo material for a new movie called "Mutumbo" featuring comedian/actor Michael Blackson. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Overlooked (talk • contribs) 07:24, 29 August 2010 (UTC)
Misprint
My UK edition of The Love Below was, for want of a better word, bodged. The last few tracks of the album don't match their titles, and it looks like the final track is absent. Here's why: It lists all 21 tracks on the cover, but there's only 20 tracks on the disc - Track 17 (The Letter) is missing. Super bad luck, or last-minute removal? Did this happen to a lot of UK discs? JaffaCakeLover (talk) 11:48, 17 July 2011 (UTC)
- My UK Disc from around the time of release is also missing "The Letter". No mention of the track in my liner notes either. It's just a 20 second skit, so I doubt I'm missing much, but I wonder why it was cut? 92.236.117.111 (talk) 15:50, 1 April 2012 (UTC)
"My Favorite Things"
> "My Favorite Things" from The Love Below contains samples from John Coltrane's 1960 recording by the same name.
Is it sampled? It seems like a straight cover/appropriation. The only possibly sampled bits are the breakbeat drums, which are probably programmed. - IRiteGud, Yes? 21:06, 7 March 2013 (UTC)
wrong fact
"selling more than 510,000 copies in its first week. It became the second-biggest debut for a double album during the Soundscan-era (beginning in 1991). "
All Eyez on me( 566,000 copies) and life after death( 690,000 copies) sold more in the first week than there first week — Preceding unsigned comment added by Df2397 (talk • contribs) 11:40, 18 June 2014 (UTC)
