Just as it’s big cousin “Int’l Players Anthem” did so well not but two years ago, Big Boi’s Hail Mary, fourth-quarter whopper “Shine Blockas” has arrived not a moment too soon, hell-bent on royally fucking up your 2009 best-of list. – Pitchfork
And royally fucked up my 2009 best-of list, it did. I believe there isn’t much to say about “Shine Blockas,” except maybe, “thank you Big Boi for giving me everything I ever wanted in a rap song.”
Big Boi has proven to be one of the most prolific MCs I’ve ever come across. Taking a break from his partner in crime, Andre 3000, Big Boi plans on releasing his debut album, Sir Luscious Left Foot: The Son of Chico Dusty… eventually. But for now, listen “Shine,” it’s a killer.

Should I reconsider Gucci Mane (who I dislike as an artist) because of this song? Or is it just that ONE of the best MC's basically made most of this song good or basically pure greatness. Almost anything Outkast (if together or doing solo projects) releases is awesome.
