Thanks for the serious reply Hollowcell, I'm a sucker for mastering / producing. Most of my stuff is just playing live and I often can't be bothered to redo a track the same way, let alone actually finetuning levels and stuff.
I agree with the "killer track"aspect of Outkast, it has some really commercial/hooklike features in a way, I was rather surprised by it myself.
I'm gonna try and see whether I can incorporate your ideas/tips into this or the next production!
Thanks for listening and commenting. Seeing how well produced your songs are I'm grateful to get some tips
