Ms. Jackson

"Ms. Jackson" is a song by American alternative hip hop duo OutKast. It was released in October 3, 2000 as the second single from their fourth album Stankonia. It topped the U.S. charts for the week of February 17, 2001, and won a 2002 Grammy Award for Best Rap Performance by a Duo or Group. It also reached number one in Germany and number two in the United Kingdom, held from the top spot by Atomic Kitten's "Whole Again". In October 2011, NME placed it at number 81 on its list "150 Best Tracks of the Past 15 Years".

The single helped sell the album following the commercial underperformance of the lead single "B.O.B.", which, despite nearly universal acclaim from critics, failed to chart on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 and only reached #69 on the Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart.

Background and writing

In Vibe, a few years after the fact, Andre recalled creating the song; "'Ms. Jackson' was an acoustic guitar song that I was doing at home. Then I just converted it over into something people could understand a little bit more."

Taken from his album Street Songs, the song charted on the Billboard Hot 100, spending two weeks at No. 40 and spent five weeks at No. 1 on the R&B chart. Along with two other tracks from Street Songs, "Super Freak" and "Ghetto Life", topped the American dance chart for three weeks in the summer of 1981. The song proved to be even more successful with R&B and dance club audiences. This song was also featured in the 1999 romantic comedy film She's All That as the theme soundtrack for the eccentric character Brock Hudson (played by Matthew Lillard), and was also featured in the video games Scarface: The World is Yours and in Grand Theft Auto V, on the radio station Space 103.2. DJ Jazzy Jeff & the Fresh Prince's "I'm All That" used a sample of the song as the opening track from the Homebase album in 1991.

A Song For The Outcast

Roses are red
The seed has been spread
Three can keep a secret
If two of them's dead
Blood on their hands
Cut family bands
Not enough life without bein'
given the chance
Are we meant to be angels fallin'
Or do we live to survive?
This illusion ain't my way
When everybody is walking out on
On the road to strict perfection
Only the beauty live to tell
This is the source of all the infections
Jaded, but I won't fade out with you
Monsters been fed
Thousand ahead
It's all in your books
But has never been said
I colour my art
Black for my heart
Running 'til I run no more
I'm back from the start
Are we meant to be angels fallin'
or do we live to survive?
This illusion ain't my way when
Everybody is walking out on
On the road to strict perfection
Only the beauty live to tell
This is the source of all the infections
Jaded, but I won't fade out with
No I won't fade out with you
Livin' my life love self-destruction
No I won't fade out with you
What is your fear?
Invitations are here
Cry a river inside
But never shed any tears
Me and my saint
You and your taint
Born in the middle
And the story maintain
Are we meant to be angels fallin'
or do we live to survive?
This illusion ain't my way when
Everybody is walking out on
Are we meant to be angels fallin'
or do we live to survive?
This illusion ain't my way when
Everybody is walking out on
Everybody is walking out on
On the road to strict perfection
Only the beauty live to tell
This is the source of all the infections
Jaded, but I won't fade out with
On the road to strict perfection
Only the beauty live to tell
This is the source of all the infections
