BEST MUSIC OF 2003:

Best Artist:
The DFA
cause they seem to be the only ones going forward with this looking backward thing.

Outkast Speakerboxx/The Love Below
P-funk on one side, Prince on the other, 2003 ice cold pimping in a dirty south manner all the fuck over the place.

Disco Punk / Rock n Roll with that dancefloor production, cause it can be live raw and well produced all at the same time. At least if the DFA touch it.
