It appears as if any new OutKast music might by no means occur.
In an intensive interview with Rolling Stone, Andre 3000 was requested what his mindset on new OutKast music is now.
“I’ll say perhaps 10, 15 years in the past, in my thoughts, I assumed an OutKast album would occur,” the New Blue Solar artist mentioned. “I don’t know the long run, however I can say that we’re additional away from it than we’ve ever been. I believe it’s a chemistry factor. We now have to be eager to do it. It’s arduous for me to make a rap, interval, you recognize? And typically I’m within the perception of, “Let issues be.”
“It was a good time in life, and our chemistry was at a sure place that was simple. And I believe the viewers typically believes that one thing has to final ceaselessly, and I don’t suppose that,” he continued. “Any type of artwork kind, I believe that’s in all probability the alternative. It in all probability shouldn’t final ceaselessly. It’s not like a product. Ultimately, we did give a product, however what made that product was a sure time in each of our lives.”
“It’s not like we’re Coca-Cola, the place it’s this system that you may all the time press a button and it’ll occur,” he added. “I believe the viewers feels that means. However the viewers by no means is aware of what it takes to make what they’re getting. I can’t blame them for that.”
The Love Under musician additionally dismissed the concept of a farewell tour, saying, “We did a tour in 2014. And I knew once I was, like, 25, that at a sure age I wouldn’t need to be onstage doing these songs. They required a sure power.”
“Actually, I’m not an enormous fan of wanting again. I’m simply not,” he added. “I’m grateful for every part that’s occurred, but it surely was a time. To me, that’s what it’s. That was a good time, and I want y’all have been there.”
The final album Andre and fellow OutKast member Massive Boi launched collectively was 2006’s Idlewild. Since then, they’ve continued their musical pursuits as solo artists, though they did reunite in 2014 for a tour.
