I’m so excited to hear this man. Andre sounds like someone who is really gracefully stepping into the flow of his life and has learned, as he put it in the interview, how to ride the rollercoaster with his hands up and it’s just so refreshing and inspiring to see someone in his position follow the path that came most natural to him rather than what was expected or anticipated. Obviously, his name comes with a lot of cache but you can tell that if he wasn’t “Andre 3000,” He’d still be doing this exact same thing just on a different scale. Which is why I found his point about the ants so interesting because I think there’s a lot of insight any aspiring artist or creative can gain from that point, this interview, and Andre in general and how he has chosen to go about living his life and nourishing his continual development as an artist and human being. Really inspiring.
ask yourself the odds of this being true and me even caring to open this thread let alone post in here
playing stupid for humor is one of the cringiest things that people have normalized
So you just say dumb s*** knowing it’s dumb but hate others that do it also?
I think some of ya are overdoing it with the entitlement thing. I don't think anyone is wrong for wanting a regular solo album from him lol. As long they don't use that as a some criticism of the album he drops
No one should be disappointed by this because it would imply the expected anything from Andre after all these years
The writings been on the wall
Same as when Daft Punk retired, anyone who was paying attention knew they were done for years before the announcement
I feel bad for supa dupa outkast fans because son is trolling them at this point lmao
Outkast fans know it’s been over
I Could
Give A Damn 'bout Your Car But Then That Would Be
If It Was Considered A Classic Before The Drastic Change In Production When Cars Were Metal Instead Of Plastic Value
Idk maybe die hard outkast fans have heard the love below and Look Ma No Hands
But damn besides the soundtrack they haven’t dropped a real project in 20 years
Just cuz you use multi syllabled words don’t make you less of a dumbass. Go buy his old s*** “nigga there are none!” Dumb ass lil boi.
Mad at corny jokes but can make corny jokes
But damn besides the soundtrack they haven’t dropped a real project in 20 years
Big Boi has been active ever since dropping albums and collab tapes
The point is that his old music is Outkasts discography, its litteraly the reason we even know about him lol

Obviously
But the counterpoint is that for people to act like there’s an abundance of Solo Andre albums to listen to the way there are for that line to work for Hov if you’re not feeling BP3 and beyond Hov is ridiculous and a forced comparison
IMO

Ehh I think everyone itt or in general at one point since Idlewild had at least an idea or more of what they thought a solo 3k album would be, despite given up hope it may ever happen.
Like if the title of this thread, didn't have that disclaimer. I don't think must people would think this a flute based album
I think that's why he put such emphasis this wouldn't be that, but I don't think being disappointed that "oh he's finally dropping an album, but with no vocals" is an unnatural feeling. Just as long u stay opened minded that this the s*** he inspired to make and it could be amazing
He said he doesn’t know chords, notes, or scales but you don’t get very far into jamming with other musicians if it sounds bad - dude must have a preternatural ability, or maybe the breath control developed over a 20 year rap career primes you to play the flute

Tbh i always take musicians saying stuff like this with a grain of salt like obviously dude knows his stuff, he's not classically trained but he definitely has a decent enough understanding of music if he made The Love Below by his self
Well not by his self he had some session musicians playing but he composed most of the songs by his self

Nobody is entitled to anything from him. He can do whatever he wants. It’s 100% entitlement when he has promised us nothing.

i mean we can agree to disagree i've said my piece

but to your original post, they already are without listening
