In a surprise announcement, Andre 3000 of Outkast said he will be dropping his first new album in 17 years, which will also be his first solo album.

Many consider him one of the greatest rappers of all-time. People were excited and surprised by the news.

But...the actual details are even more surprising...
Quote:

Part of finally coming around to releasing a new body of work was the condition that he would do it on his own terms.

New Blue Sun
isn't the rap album many listeners might have expected Andr 3000 to return with. Instead, it's a collection of instrumental offerings on which he plays a myriad of different flutes.

- Rolling Stone


And the Track List (From Pitchfork):
Quote:

New Blue Sun:
01 I Swear, I Really Wanted to Make a "Rap" Album but This Is Literally the Way the Wind Blew Me This Time

02 The Slang Word P(*)ssy Rolls Off the Tongue With Far Better Ease Than the Proper Word Va gina . Do You Agree?

03 That Night in Hawaii When I Turned Into a Panther and Started Making These Low Register Purring Tones That I Couldn't Control ... Sht Was Wild

04 BuyPoloDisorder's Daughter Wears a 3000 Button Down Embroidered

05 Ninety Three 'Til Infinity And Beyonc

06 Ghandi, Dalai Lama, Your Lord & Savior J.C. / Bundy, Jeffrey Dahmer, and John Wayne Gacy

07 Ants to You, Gods to Who ?

08 Dreams Once Buried Beneath the Dungeon Floor Slowly Sprout Into Undying Gardens

NPR did a full interview with him about the project:

This isn't quite Rolling Stones and Beatles level of old acts putting out new stuff, but it's close.

Track 3 has to be a banger.

And "Ghandi, Dalai Lama, Your Lord & Savior J.C. / Bundy, Jeffrey Dahmer, and John Wayne Gacy" is a full bar.

Rolling Stone lost all credibility when they left off Celine Dion in the greatest singers list

Yeah, I hope that gif isn't about calling Andre one of the GOATs because he's certainly in the discussion.

I don't think the "Billboard Hot 100" is the "just saying" evidence you think it is.

Wrong. It goes Reggie, Jay-Z, Tupac and Biggie, Andre from Outkast, Jada, Kurupt, Nas, and then me.

Macklemore? Kanye?? Kanye is a good producer, can make hit records (not anymore), but he's not considered a great rapper at all.

I'm gonna need some names here of people starring this post. You might be able to clown on him for his flute album, but yall can't discredit Andre as a rapper.

Exactly. The little kids love his edited radio jams. Doesn't make him a top 10 rapper. Not even close. Billboard ranks mean diddly *****
