Andre 3000 Discusses Relationship With Big Boi In Dismissing Talk Of New Outkast Album

by HHL JT

When people wonder why there hasn't been an Outkast album in almost twenty years, they usually attribute the group's inactivity to Andre 3000's peculiar personality.

However, there may be more to that story.

During a chat with poet Hanif Abdurraqib, 3 Stacks revealed that part of what has put the duo on hiatus is the changing chemistry between Big Boi and himself.

"People ask, 'So, will there be another Outkast album?'" Andre 3000 shared. "I really can’t say, man. I do realize that our chemistries have changed. We’re different people. We’re totally different people. Not to say that we won’t be able to make any kind of music, but I think, yeah, people have to realize, like, even in relationships, man... chemistry should change after a while. And I think people think there’s this one thing that has to stay a way, but we are ever-changing, man.

Do you even want another Outkast album at this point?
