So true though…

Twitter is being set ablaze by a new debate, taking a break from the political and more heavy issues for something more lighthearted; specifically, comparing two legendary music groups. The acts in question are none other than Southern hip hop duo Outkast and one of the most influential bands of all time, The Beatles. Seems like a pretty random combination right? We agree, but comedian Ron Funches saw through the Matrix the other night and felt compelled to bring it to Twitter’s attention, starting World War Three online.

Writing online, Funch wrote “When society admits OutKast is better than The Beatles then we can truly start healing.” This naturally poured the gasoline, but what lit the spark and turned Twitter into a blazing inferno was when Outkast themselves re-shared it. Odds are they don’t really care and are pre-occupied with their own lives, but in the words of Drizzy Drake, ‘You don’t know what you just started.’

And it seems that The Beatles didn’t do too well in the ensuing Twitter debate, countless people comparing songs from the two duos (with Outkast consistently coming out on top) along with many criticisms of The Beatles’ large similarity to the blues artists before them.

Pretty hilarious and random. Check the carnage below.

When society admits OutKast is better than The Beatles then we can truly start healing.

Beatles stole southern Black and added it to British white. Outkast stole Mars and added it to southern urban Black. Outkast wins.

Next.

OutKast could write and perform "Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds" but the Beatles could never write or perform "SpottieOttieDopalicious" https://t.co/fkAiKoZn7D

Comparing Outkast to the Beatles isn’t fair. Outkast didn’t have 30 years worth of Blues artists music to steal from uncredited. https://t.co/2IwOh51DGn

Outkast easily better than the Beatles and it’s not even an argument pic.twitter.com/0LH1lxaLH5

Hey Jude is considered one of the "best songs ever" by old white people but the last four minutes are this and they have the nerve to call Playboi Carti out for being repititve 💀😭
