As is the case every time Andre 3000 appears on a new track, questions begin swirling around the possibility of a new OutKast album. Luckily, GQ posed the question directly to the man. Andre 3000 answered:
There’s been a lot of talk on the Internet about an OutKast album and I have to say that as of now, there are no plans for another OutKast album. There’s a lot of music on the horizon. I’ve been living off the excitement of new artists. I’ve been privileged to have these new artists kind of reach out and grab back and say, “Hey, Andre, we want you on this song.” So I’ve been taking those calls and for the last two years, I’ve been doing collaborations. So these new artists have kind of been keeping me alive. I’ve just really been feeding off of that and this year I think I’m planning to do a solo project. I don’t know when it will come out, but hopefully it’ll come out this year. As far as OutKast, I really don’t know if or when that will happen.
So, there you have it, from the horse’s mouth. Don’t hold your breath for a new OutKast album, but we might get a solo LP this year. You win some, you lose some.
