André 3000 says he’ll be dropping new music

by

As a long-time admirer of André 3000‘s unique blend of talent and creativity, I must say his latest announcements have left me both perplexed and excited. On one hand, it seems that the flute master has taken a turn towards unconventional music with “New Blue Sun.” On the other, he’s hinted at returning to hip-hop in 2025 – a prospect that brings a sense of nostalgia and anticipation.

As a gamer putting on my headphones, I was disheartened to learn André 3000 has stepped away from rapping, leaving many fans like me yearning for more of his lyrical genius. And then came the unexpected twist: an entire album made up of flutes, titled “New Blue Sun.” Frankly, I didn’t know what to expect – but here we are, with this groundbreaking work nominated for Album of the Year at the Grammys!

It was believed that Outkast’s legendary sound might take a break following the release of “New Blue Sun”, but it seems that assumption is incorrect. In a recent chat with Amazon Music, André has shared that he plans on unveiling new tracks, as he wishes to maintain his creative flow.

The host asked, “What would a vision board for André 3000 resemble as we approach 2025?” To which he replied, “Definitely new music. Also, innovative methods of distribution and expression. I don’t want to specifically define it, but I just want to have more avenues for self-expression.

As a gaming enthusiast, I’m curious about this: Is the artist from Georgia planning to release another flute album or is he going back to hip-hop? If he decides to spit rhymes again, it suggests that he’s overcome any doubts about being too old for rap music.

For quite a while, André has expressed that he finds it challenging to find topics to rhyme about in his 40s, an idea that sparked disagreement among many other rappers. Lil Wayne is one of those who voiced their thoughts, stating that André’s opinion left him feeling disheartened.

Last year on his Young Money radio show, Wayne expressed a sentiment he found disheartening from someone he admires in hip-hop and music. They questioned why he hadn’t been creating music lately, implying they felt unsure about what to discuss because they were in their 40s. Wayne said it was depressing to him because he feels he has so much to talk about.
