Andre 3000 Finally Going Solo

Well well well, it looks like Three Stacks is back, maybe. This is not the first time this rumor has circulated. This was reported a few months ago but Andre quickly shut the talks down. This time HipHopWired (fascists) is the source, claiming that they heard it straight from him while backstage at Governor's Ball. When other media outlets confronted the former OutKast member, he only responded with a "we'll see" (classic Andre). I don't blame him. The dude hates the press and the limelight.
I am excited to hear this though. Andre3000 has remained a mute in the music industry for quite a few years now. Every now and again he'll throw us a few smooth bars on a feature, but the man has not claimed an album or even a song for too long. Although most people wont say this out loud, Andre was the better of the OutKast duo. Don't get me wrong, Big Boi is a great lyricist with a fast pace style. This complimented Andre's slow pace burn-out style perfectly. But Big Boi has been taking multiple stabbings at rapping on his own, and while some of what he has done works for me, he's inconsistent. Andre3000 was always more creative and always silky smooth. He works well with every rapper and can adapt to any style, not just Big Boi's.
I am excited to see what he can do on his own. I expect to see plenty of long, slow-paced songs. Hopefully he brings a few features along though too. He can turn up with the best of them and give me a few more bangers to bump to.
