Outkast Funk Blaster

It's an Outkast-branded, homage-style audio product line rather than something designed by the duo themselves. André 3000 and Big Boi haven't released an Outkast studio album since 2006's Idlewild, so new merchandise under the name is licensing territory.

Like any Bluetooth speaker, it streams whatever is on your phone, including 'Hey Ya!' — which spent nine weeks at number one on the Billboard Hot 100 in 2003–04. The branding is decorative; the audio pipeline is standard Bluetooth.

Specs like IPX water-resistance ratings and battery hours vary by seller and aren't consistent across the line, so verify them on the exact listing. Portable Bluetooth speakers in this class commonly claim somewhere in the IPX5–IPX7 range and 8–12 hours of playback, but don't assume without checking.

It nods to Outkast's Speakerboxxx/The Love Below, the 2003 double album that won the Grammy for Album of the Year in 2004. Big Boi's half of that record was the Speakerboxxx side, which is the obvious funk reference point for an Outkast speaker line.
