Andre
3000
sat
down
with

Gayle
King
and
revealed
why
he
hasn’t
participated
in
any
hip-hop
50
celebrations
and
confirmed
a
rap
album
isn’t
a
priority.

One
of
the
most
surprising
things
to
happen
this
year
was

Andre
3000
unexpectedly
blessing
us
with
new
music,
sort
of.
He
released
his
instrumental
album

New
Blue
Sun
with
all
the
flute
sounds
we
didn’t
know
we
needed.
Additionally,
3
Stacks
is
also
doing
interviews
and
opening
up
about
his
confidence
struggles
when
creating
hip-hop
music.

According
to

VIBE,
Andre
3000
sat
down
with
Gayle
King
on

CBS
Mornings
and
revealed
why
he’s
been
absent
from

Hip-Hop
50
celebrations.

“I
wouldn’t
want
to
be
—
I’m
doing
it
just
because
I’m
trying
to
meet
an
expectation,”
he
told
Gayle
King
of
his
reasoning
behind
skipping
out
on
appearing
for
any
tribute
performances.
“I
didn’t
get
into
OutKast
for
that,
you
know.”

Furthermore,

Andre
3000
once
again
had
to
address
the

highly
requested
rap
album
his
fans
are
begging
for.
Unfortunately,
his
mood
and
hesitation
are
still
at
an
all-time
high
when
it
comes
to
making
a
rap
album.

“When
people
ask
me
about
a
rap
album,
‘Man,
I
would
love
a
rap
album,’
I’m
with
you,”
the
48-year-old
continued
“But
it’s
like,
I
want
to
be
with
you
when
I’m
really
on
it…
I
don’t
sit
and
try
to
rap
every
day
like
when
I
was
younger,
and
that’s
all
I
did
when
I
was
younger.
I
miss
those
times
a
lot,
but
it’s
like
life
changes.
Life
moves
on.”

Honestly,
at
this
point,
we
have
to
give
up
hope
and
whenever
he
decides
to
rap
again
just
be
grateful
it’s
happening.
For
now,
we
can
bask
in
the
glory
of
securing
flute
tunes
even
if
we
wanted
bars.

If
we
are
lucky
3k
will
at
least
stay
around
and
keep
blessing
us
with
these
interviews.

You
can
watch
the
full
extended
interview
with
3k
and

Gayle
King
