Southernplayalisticadillacmuzik is the debut album of hip-hop duo OutKast, released April 26, 1994 on LaFace Records.[8] Recorded at D.A.R.P. Studios, Purple Dragon, Bosstown and Doppler Studios in Atlanta, Georgia throughout 1992 to 1994, the album featured production by the Atlanta-area production team Organized Noize.[8] Southernplayalisticadillacmuzik peaked at #20 on the Billboard 200 chart and was certified platinum in sales on April 5, 1995 by the Recording Industry Association of America,[9] with the help of the album's hit single "Player's Ball." Big Boi recorded a song called "West Savannah" for this album, but it didn't make the cut. The song was later added to their 1998 album Aquemini.
