  • Stankonia was easily their most underrated album. Listen to it again. And again. And again.

  • When I first heard this song I thought it was about toilet paper...

  • hip hop at its best. music made with a passion.. music that has a real message

  • 2nd album i ever bought. probably the best i ever bought.

  • @muziknation74 You do realize this song came out about 10 years ago, right? That isn't very long ago. There is still plenty of music around like this, just not on the top 40 chart.

  • We soooo need more music like this now...there is no content or reason behind music now.everybody making trap music and talking bout the same bullshit.OUTKAST forever...home of the brave!!!

  • looooooooooooll my shiiddd

    

  • hahaha...of course I this song influenced my youtube name lol

  • THIS IS MY SONG FOR Amy winehouse

  • Outkast has so much Funkadelics/Parliment (same thang..kinda) in them it's ridiculous! AWESOME

  • the last good outkast album

  • This is Hip Hop music at it's best. THese cats were and are geniuses but songs like these never get talked about enough.

  • MMM MMM MMM I Love this song, but dang it sound jus like a Prince song, especially at the beginning

  • @andrephifer i was thinking the same thing. if only prince could hear what he inspired.

  • @mattratt512 huh. he can. he's not dead?

  • no, what really happened was Tisha couldn't bare to tell her mother she was pregnant. Tisha or should we say Toliet Tisha, took the lives of her self and baby she was carrying.

  • @ITSTRUTH4U No this song was about an abortion on the toilet. And I remember seeing that interview. Outkast had to tell the public something because they were so freaked out by it. But that was the idea. There was a big problem with toilet abortions back then so outkast made this song to raise awareness and kind of scare girls into not doing this. That's why you hear the mom screaming "the baby."

  • @Nuyorican193 na man no

  • @Nuyorican193 Nailed it!

  • WHEN WAS THIS PRODUCED! AND HOW DID I MISS IT?

  • i listen to music like this and im 15 too

  • @mectium19 me too!!

  • damn its sad that very few kids my age (15) listen to music like this im tired of listening to "fat asses and big titties" dont get me wrong its nice from time to time but damn thats all i hear about and oh yea weed. i listen to songs like this lay back in my chair and think....

  • @FatalEmblem I feel you my friend

  • @FatalEmblem

    You are so pretentious!

  • @MrWesHancock how is that pretentious you dick? thats real

  • @crustytowel Just because you don't listen to mainstream music doesn't automatically make you a better or more 'deep' person than everyone else.

  • @MrWesHancock but enjoying music with a passion and that sends a real message is legit way more 'deep' then them ass and titties song made for a paycheck. read his comment again hes not bashing anything and hes right

  • @FatalEmblem rack city rack rack cityyy bitch

  • 2:52 my fav part of this song it tells u the meaning

  • I fuckin love hiphop in 6/8!!

  • love this beat, got a lot of soul

  • i almost shed a tear when i figured out what this song was about

  • I had this CD... Dopest group evur.

  • I dont think Tisha was contemplating suicide, but a coathanger abortion, and she died in the process.

  • Normally, I hate hip hop. Outkast opened my mind. I realized that not all rappers are idiots. This was one of the 1st hip hop songs I have ever liked.

  • lil wane looks like something youd find in the toliet!.....lil untalented shit.

  • Omg.....this is sad as hell

    Outkast is beast

  • This sounds like somen you'd here from sly & the family stone on There's a Riot Goin' On with Outkast's special blend of herbs and spices sprinkled on top.

  • better than grandma's pancakes

  • remindes me of some parliment funkadelica groove... nice and real with a weed trippin thang of the seventies. i like it......go outkast

  • i bet u they named this song toilet tisha so people would listen to it.... cuz it aint about big asses and gettin money

  • andre so sexy

    

  • One of THE BEST BEATS EVER!!!!!!!! At the end,THE BEST ENDING of a beat!!!!!! At 4:03 how those sounds come in,NO COMPARISON!!!!!! Outkast is BY FAR the BEST GROUP EVER and Andre 3000 is THE BEST RAPPER EVER!!!! I'll put my money on him against ANYONE!!!! Lil wayne da best? Ha!! Wayne aint nothing but a metaphoric rapper...THAT'S IT!!!

  • Outkast best fucking rap duo period....

    Andre 3000 shall i say more

  • haha i agree andre is the best in the game but hollywood divorce was a good song lil wayne complimented Andre and Big well

  • This really made me stop and think about a lot of stuff. DEEP...

  • how come every video i watch someone is hating on Lil Wayne or comparing the song to him? He did a guest verse on Idlewild, so hating on him is in effect hating on OutKast. He gives Andre a shout-out on Tha Carter III, he shows the proper respect, so why you wanna dis-respect him?

  • OutKast is the future of the FUNK!!!!

  • Can someone PLEEEEEEEASE make this into an instrumental???!!!???? PLEEEEEEEEEEASE???????!!!?????­?

  • thhis is like so fuckin raw man i love andre and big boi they are so good lyrically they could make chuck norris cry man damn

  • been looking for this shit

  • I heard this song for the first time tripping on mushrooms.

    Whenever I realized what it was about, a little around halfway through the song, I burst into tears. It was intense. My most intimate moment with hip-hop of any kind. There I was reading the name "Toilet Tisha" off my iTunes, thinking it was going to be some lighthearted, funny, vulgar song.

    Fuck, was I wrong.

  • @Npowell01 I remember being so high I may as well have been on shrooms when I first heard this song. It was the 1st time I heard this whole album. Your post reminds me of what my mind was going through. Nice one folks!

    And on another note, Outkast is so far ahead of their time; this same recording could've dropped a year from now and still would've been hot. Yall hear that SOUND they made? It's almost scary.

  • damn this reminds me of the smiths - complete with dramatic scenario b-roll... except with even more genres mashed up, and speaking directly to the community they're intimate with - just like the smiths did.

  • can sombody PLEACE fix me an instrumental on this one

  • my estimates of current honesty and current intelligence were considerably lowered by those experiences

  • stankonia got me through grade 12.

    i cant wait to hear what my son thinks of it when he's old enough.

    stankonia FTW.

  • sounds... yeah.. sounds quite shit..?

  • wow its a song about not haveing Toilet tisha lol

  • i wish someone would upload the instrumental to this...

  • this sound like a song i d hear on Prince's sign of the times...

  • Great Great Song !!

  • This beat is filthy. in a good way...

  • Wow...I just realize that Tisha is a play on words...Sounds like Toilet Tissue...Very deep stuff!

  • This song is sad but true...Alot of Toilet Tisha's out there.

  • Failed attempted Wire-hanger abortion...

    This is the meaning of the song. That is all i will say.

  • tisha GIRL WHAT YOU DOIN......LOL BUT ITS NOT FUNNY THOUGH

  • I uset to listen to this in my bed while on deployment in the navy. this song made me kinda sad officers getting on my nerves outkast was my relief

  • reminds me of being 16, smoking weed, while my boys were doing the blow. Shit man makes me want to eat and be thankful

  • wtf, makes you "want to eat and be thankful"...what does this have to do with smoking weed or doing blow? just wondering....yea i was 17 or 18 when this came out

  • It just an expression...I was just relating to the song because I myself thought about suicide at one time, but i see now that was just a phase and I'm thankful to be alive.

  • Amen...I just want to eat and be thankful too. Love outkasttt

  • man this music opens up that d.n.a and cares me back to hte ancients eye to eye mind to mind looking back is like closing your eyes all you see is the cosmos....open ...unblinking,,,,,seeing how you exist in this universal family ...if you spirtually alive peace

  • one word DOPE!!!! ALWAYS WAS AND WILL FOREVA B

  • This song is so deep. It honestly scares me.

  • I think this song is according to Maggot Brain.

    in that song the guitar should be played as if the player found out that his mother is dead

  • man this shit make you cry especially when her mother started crying

  • This song literally sent shivers down my spine...I nearly fell of my chair lmao!

  • man outkast the first niggas to use voice edting shit and no one every gives them appreciation for it

    tisk tisk

    outkast>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

  • they aren't the first; this song has a very prince vibe circa his 1987 album sign o the times with the voice altering at high/lower pitches. this song is so dope regardless.

  • i think i just wet my pants::..

  • && people love to say that lil wane is tha best rapper alive..what is wrong wit people??

  • i agree!

  • whats this song about?

  • a young teenage girl who is faced with an unwanted pregnancy, deals with it by comitting suicide in the bathroom (dont know what method she used), and her mom finds her dead on the toilet

  • whoa, I thought it was about a drug addicted teenager that overdosed

  • @SAMOISDEAD from my understanding, she tried to perform an abortion by herself and died on the toilet in the process.

  • @SAMOISDEAD i thought (and i could be wrong dont kill me) that it was an accidental suicide as she was trying to abort her own baby via the coat hanger method

  • @Tizzmarelda..Y u didnt know what this song was talking about? U couldnt been listening to it. It was clear like water on the issue. That's why it's called "toliet tisha." Not just b/c she died on the seat of the toliet,which she did,but the "toliet" represents the place where "waste" is removed from the body. She was pregnant and believing that her life was trash,b/c of her pregnancy,she "wasted" it. Get it? "WASTED/TOLIET?" "Tisha" flushed her life down the "toliet." "Toliet Tisha."

  • @ITSTRUTH4U

    You got it on the money!

  • @ITSTRUTH4U Yo that's deep as hell bro lol sitting here high as hell thinkin the fuck dis song talkin bout glad ur smart ass kno lol nah forreal thanx tho i appriciate u butting this explaination up lol how many niggaz u kno can talk like dat high lmao

  • @Trey4444444...LOL!! Appreciate da comment bruh. I was once like you until I changed my life around. I used to get high as da stars on this song and would zone out on how these dudes,OUTKAST,comes up with these hits and titles and the depth of them just astonishes me. Listen to the last part when it's just the instrumental playing and Big Boi is sayn,"fatality" tell me is that sound something to zone out on. Take it easy bruh.

  • @ITSTRUTH4U I think it was because I was so young when I had this CD (And probably shouldn't have had it in the first place at like 7 years old) but I couldn't understand the song either. I mean, I listened to what Big Boi said at the end of the song which shed a LITTLE bit of light on what was going on. But I want to thank you for making it clearer to me 10 years later. :) Oh, and I LOOOVE the way you explained the symbolism of the toilet. I would've never thought about it that way. :D

  • @chandeliirX919..Thx for the love sexy. I appreciate that and I LOOOOVE the way your comment felt;very sincere :-)

  • @ITSTRUTH4U Heehee ur welcome ^_^

  • @ITSTRUTH4U Simply a self-induced abortion resulting in death.... Nothing more nothing less. Most coat hanger abortions and sometimes miscarriages take place on the toilet or in the shower.

    While I do think your interpretation is interesting (very deep actually), I think you might have read a bit too much into the meaning of the song.

    No way is this trying to be rude or disrespectful, I think the song is about a girl trying to abort her baby and dying in the process..

    peace

  • @philldafunk..Sorry bruh,but if you're sayn I read into too deep.then your complaint,you need to take it to Outkast,cuz the dudes who wrote this masterpiece SAID IT!!!! No disrespect to you either,but do your homework b4 you critize truth out of ignorance. That's why its titled "TOILET TISHA".

  • @ITSTRUTH4U Show me the link to that interview.

  • @philldafunk...I'll try to find it for you. They was on BET rap city,MTV when they said this. I was watching it while they was explaining it cuz people was so touched by this song that they wanted to know was it a true story and Outkast said no and the song was meant 2 show how people waste their lives off a blessing from God 2 where they c it as a stumbling block by what others may say about them. Dude,it's not hard 2c the "title" and the words matching the title. I'll still try and find it 4u.

  • @ITSTRUTH4U I'm not even trying to be rude. There is a lot of uncertainty surrounding this song, and if you can get a link to Outkast telling everyone what it really means I think that would be a good look. No more people just making up their own interpretations. I'd appreciate that, and im sure others would too :)

  • @philldafunk..well bruh,my comment wasnt to change the minds of u nor the world but was to explain it like Outkast did. If I find something to show they said this or if I cant find it,it is what it is. Whether its accepted or not...it is what it is & what it is is my comment that I typed on youtube...PERIOD.

  • @philldafunk so... In other words your interpretations are congruent... saying he's reading too deep is like saying the deeper meaning isn't there, or wasn't at all intended, when that's clearly not the case. Artists don't utilize creativity like this to tell a story without a reason, or some kind of insight they are trying to impart.

  • "Let me impart that yo bitch ass aint congruent with dis dick. Interpret deez nuts creatively and deeply in yo mouf! " -said the ignorant fool that cant understand what you are saying. LOL

  • @ITSTRUTH4U bravo

  • @XSTASYJONES...Mannnnn,you look good!!! ;-0 (the 0 is me sayn,"ouuuuuuu" lol.

  • @ITSTRUTH4U who died exactly?

  • @mohalik987..the girl who was pregnant;she killed herself. Take your time and listen to this masterpiece again.

  • @Tizzmarelda um. listen to the words

  • Dag they really have something to say

  • I just remembered i loved this song

  • lol

  • @tish9056

    You're dumb. This song is a raw, amazing piece of artistry. It's a damn shame that you're too busy taking it as a personal affront to your name to see that.

  • This was based on a true story...

  • @BellCo254...Liar!!! This song was NOT BASED on a true story. I remember when this album came out,people was struck off this so hard to the degree where it was asked to Outkast about this song;was it real or made up cuz it felt so real and Outkast said it was 100% fiction.Yeah,u just got caught up in it so hard,u wanted it to b real cuz it "felt" so real. I admit,b4 I heard Kast said it was made up,I thought it was real too.

  • @ITSTRUTH4U WHO GIVES A FLYIN FUCK STFU N ENJOY THE GODDAMN MUSIC BETCH LOL DAMN PEOPLE B GOIN IN ON UTUBE ITS NOT DAT SERIOUS HAHA N GON HEAD COMMENT BAC CAUSE I KNO YO ASS MAD R SUMTHING LIKE I GIVE A FUCK COME ON REPLY I CAN FEEL IT LMFAO!

  • @seximama4life2

    You should leave all that bad language somewhere else. Really is it that serious that you have to write all that?? Grow up, you came to a song that addresses a serious issue and speak like that! Something is wrong somewhere.

All she looks 4 is 2 start junk. She's sick mentally & thrives on mess. She even says that on her page so pay the fool no mind. Jesus said "dont waste your pearls 2 the swine". She's trash & what we do wit trash? Throw it out & let it b. Thats y when she came 2 me,I simple said,"be easy" & that shook her neves. Hold it down bruh.

  • @ITSTRUTH4U lmao u a joke soft ass nigga your troubled soul gtfoh wit dat mess plezz lol!

  • @seximama4life2 Are you trying to provoke a response? No question, you have to be. You do know that people know that you are trying t start fights; and I know you're thinking no shit, you left a comment saying that you like starting shit. But no, I mean the fact that you say, "GONE HEAD COMMENT BAC" tells us that you thrive on the response of others and the anger that you cause people. Actually I take back what I said about knowing what you're thinking; you lack too much intellect to think that.

  • @Trey4444444 LMAO ONCE AGAIN ANOTHA DUMB ASS LOOK THIS SHIT IS AN OLD COMMENT I MADE GET OVER IT U PEOPLE R SO WACK ON UTUBE GOIN O SO HARD N YES I SAY COMMENT BAC CUZZ HALF OF THE TIME U DO JUST LIKE U WILL LMAO CUZZ U GET MAD 4 WAT I DONT KNO BC ITS JUST UTUBE I DONT GIVE A SHIT ABOUT A SONG R U CUZZ GUESS WAT I DONT KNO U LMAO THIS IS A FREE COUNTRY I MAKE WATEVA COMMENT I WANT IF U DONT LIKE IT THEN SUCK ON IT THATS ALL I HAVE TO SAY NOW ONCE AGAIN COMMENT BAC LMAO CUZZ I KNO U WILL!

  • @ITSTRUTH4U its a true story to some, because this has been done b4 i'm sure, it just wasn't based off of a single girl

  • @Flutter13ee..Theeeeeere you go. Now,that,I agree with. No it wasnt off a particular situation,but I agree with you 100%...that situations like this has happened. Outkast are some real artists making masterpieces when they come to the mic.

  • this song is so fucked up but really underrated

  • NNNOOOO TISHAAAA

  • girl we miss yah

  • long live the funk

  • DAMN!!! OUTKAST is the SHIT!!!

    This song is deep!!!

  • It scares me that Outkast can come up with shit this dope. They are on a different plane of thought. To me, this is what the evolution of black music should sound like.

  • Too bad it ain't gonna happen, huh?

  • real talk.. dope concept.. we miss ya toilet tisha!!!!

  • this song gives me goosebumps
