If you\u2019ll grant me the long road for a second, the year was 2001. I was in high school and At The Drive-In\u2019s magnum opus Relationship of Command<\/em> had just rewired my brain about what music could be. It sent me on a search for that same frenetic energy and there simply wasn\u2019t else anything like it in rock music. Then I saw the fever dream of a music video for Outkast\u2019s B.O.B.<\/em><\/a> (Followed shortly by songs like Gasoline Dreams<\/em> and Humble Mumble<\/em> fulfilling the energetic promise made by the technicolor video). The rest, as they say, is history, and my musical taste has only grown more deranged. 2000 was a good year for weirdos.<\/p>\n

It’s been 25 years since Stankonia<\/em> was released, half introducing the mainstream world to the lushness of the Atlanta music scene and half redefining it. And to celebrate, the iconic hip hop duo<\/a> have teamed up with Atlanta\u2019s Portrait Coffee<\/a> to \u201c[reimagine] 25 years of\u00a0Stankonia<\/em>\u00a0through coffee.\u201d<\/p>\n

Announced Friday, October 24th<\/sup>, the collaboration is called Stankonia Coffee<\/a> and it \u201cpays tribute to the spirit of the album\u2014funky, futuristic, and unapologetically Atlanta.\u201d On pre-order until October 28th<\/sup>, it\u2019s a blend of coffees from Rwanda and Colombia, one an experimental natural and the other washed. The medium roast coffee has notes of green apple, strawberry, and brown sugar.<\/p>\n
