André 3000 is pretty meh on returning to OutKast and music in general
The OutKast reunion that fans have been hoping to see for years and years is now looking more unlikely than ever, as André 3000 now seems to believe that making music is kind of a chore. Speaking with Complex (via Pitchfork), André said that he’s pretty much over the whole scene, and he doesn’t feel like dealing with the stress and work that putting out music entails. “I kind of like not being a part of [rap], now that I’ve done it,” he says, adding that he thinks he’ll move away from “the hustle and bustle of putting out an album” now that he’s getting older. “When I was 25, I said I don’t want to be a 30-year-old rapper,” he says. “I’m 42 now, and I feel more and more that way.”
