Make it make sense to me man lmao
They spent two whole years s***ting on Drake (rightfully) for running to lawsuits, saying "suing ain't hip-hop!" just for them to start praising Outkast for it
They saying "Outkast has to protect their name and brand! What if Ovrkast got caught up in something bad and people said it was Outkast!"
1. That's never going to f***in happen.
2. If it does, that is a direct result of people not being able to read, or not reading past a headline.
3. When Drake's legal team was saying his lawsuit was to protect his name and image from defamation y'all still called it wack, even though there was actually stronger case to be made about libel and defamation there than what Outkast is doing with their lawsuit trying to claim ownership of "Ovrkast"
Why is this about Drake though? like ngl man you seem to be in too deep
That’s…what a deadline is…
I’m just saying if im a lawyer looking at this case and trying to find any angles to give my client some bail (cause “this aint hip hop” is not the best defense you could use in a court), i’m just saying he’s NOT making it easier for himself dawg.
who gives a f***
he had to play ball legally the best he could cus they were gonna take everything he ever made in his entire career. he's doing his best to navigate this when they have 8/9 figure lawyers coming for his whole existence. keep defending the rich millionaires trying to take every last dollar made from the small producer in his 20s who had ZERO trouble with this name for almost a decade that WASNT INSPIRED BY THEM
love outkast forever and nothing changes my feelings on their music but you guys sound f***ing crazy
And that's fair honestly lol
I still think that Big Boi or 3000 should step in at that point and let the name changes Ovrkast submitted go through because he's clearly complying and agrees there was confusion and wants to remove more of it.
But I am looking at Ovrkast like a dope because he's like 27/28. You old enough to understand the severity of legal deadlines lmao
Also this could be labels and other entities at play as well. Either way it’s unfortunate… I do think suing is extreme but word is bond man.
Guys name is literally Ovrkast I mean cmon that s*** looks disgusting
and way too similar
Just call yourself Overcast. What's the problem?

Sound crazy because a grown ass man didn’t hold his end of an agreement upon the agreed terms? Grow up brother cmon son lol. Again I don’t think he should be sued at all but that is not how the real world works son.
This s*** always be lame too
Let's stay focused on this situation
Iconic foundational niggas to this genre do one thing y'all don't like now we making vague reaches like "Andre has a racist asian GF and Big Boi follows MAGA accounts and posts AI" this the type of s*** niggas reach for when niggas haven't actually done anything lol
lmaoo "they did some semi fed s*** so now let's tally up all the things they did over past few years that that vaguely poorly reflect on them" niggas made ATLien and Aquemini y'all be tripping
Like y'all got all this s*** in y'all back pocket to make niggas seem like whatever once they do one thing y'all dont like
The new era of the SJW rap fan who is waiting with all of the sins against the current 25-35 year old post 2016 zeitgeist these usually 40+ men have committed (this all aint even @ you I just see this s*** so much now)
You can make a whole separate thread about s*** like this honestly. S*** is mad annoying.

Not sure if you're trolling, but you just did the thing lol
Not at all and I'm tired of people desperately tryna say some dumbass s*** like
"Well why didn't he just name himself Overcast if its supposed to be for the weather to avoid the confusion?"
Yeah man. Because rappers (artists in general) are known to never stylize their name. Nope. Always spelling their name correctly.
Yeah, that's right...
Two Chains
Buster Rhymes
Ghostface Killer
Boys to Men
Black (6lack)
Ludicrous
Fabulous
Jewels Santana
Eclipse
Knowledge
The Farside
DJ Quick
Big Boy
All artists who spell their names correctly and have never stylized their names differently...
I think this hits different if Andre wasn’t off playing his flute and Outkast was still making music lmaoo. I’m more mad at the flute ngl
Sound crazy because a grown ass man didn’t hold his end of an agreement upon the agreed terms? Grow up brother cmon son lol. Again I don’t think he should be sued at all but that is not how the real world works son.
oh right so you don't think he should be sued but you think he should be punished for not reacting legally exactly the right way to being sued for everything he ever made. very consistent ethics there. whatever you think of holding up your end of a lawsuit condemning him for not doing it exactly as they told him to or else he loses everything he ever made is f***ing crazy. and he was playing ball sending in name changes and everything they wanted anyway, he wasn't just blowing them off. you sound like police

No I'm saying you shouldn't be surprised goofy as I have stated multiple times in the thread. Again, you live in la la land, courts aint tryna hear that s***. I never said anything about feeling like he "deserved to be punished" or any of the stupid s*** you are saying. You are projecting and putting words in my mouth.
"According to the complaint, Outkast’s lawyers contacted Wilson in June 2025 and reached an agreement where he would change his stage name to Overkxst and stop using Ovrkast on his website, social media and streaming accounts, domain name, newsletters, advertising and marketing materials, clothing, and merchandise.
The lawsuit claims the deadline for the name change was postponed to July 15, 2026, but that Wilson decided to “renege” on the negotiated agreement and suggest alternate names that had previously been rejected by the plaintiffs. Outkast says the settlement agreement is valid and binding, and that Wilson has breached it."
Read this a few times if it's a hard concept for you to grasp. I hate it for Ovrkast but you have to be immature to be surprised.

no s*** they're not trying to hear that they're trying to put him in forever debt now since he didn't respond quickly enough. if pointing out that's horrible to do to a small producer who had no issues for an entire decade puts me in la la land i'm ryan gosling
they're asking for all of his merch that ever existed to be destroyed like f***ing secret police
Of course this guy produced on iceman
get em outta here
What does that matter? Lol he also produces for Earl, Navy Blue, Pink Siifu, Mavi and he's gotten Pete Rock co-signs. Dude makes good beats and knows his way around a sampler.
An underground producer who makes dusty soul sample based beats getting placements on any of the big three's projects should be seen as a good thing. It's good talent getting recognized on a major level.
