OutKast is too much fun. Some of the lines are too cool. "Lend me some sugar, I AM YOUR NEIGHBOR!"
I cannot remember if it was G or me who recognized it first, but the real hook in this song, the real genius, is the extra 2 beats. There are 20 beats in each set of measures, and then there are 2 extra beats making the last measure half as long. Over and over. Gives it a subtle funky syncopation that you're addicted to before you realize what you're addicted to.
PS: I put all my album cover images in a directory and seeing them all together looked cool. I used a little collage making program so you might see what I mean, including all the album covers I've posted so far. If viewing a sea of albums you know and love all together does not make you happy, then are you really a music lover? I know it makes me happy.
