Genius Annotation

“Elevators (Me & You)” is the lead single from OutKast’s sophomore album, ATLiens. The song talks about the group’s humble beginnings and elevated status in the rap game with the success of their debut album, Southernplayalisticadillacmuzik. The song debuted on Atlanta radio station WHTA in May 1996 during the Freaknik festival, and the track’s catchy chorus along with André’s standout final verse helped the song become a hit.

The gold single peaked at #12 on the Billboard Hot 100 and #5 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart. The song had two official remixes: one version from producer Crazy C and another version produced by Organized Noize, which was featured as the last track on ATLiens.
