Andre 3000 not performing with Big Boi during their Hall of fame was disrespectful to HipHop, he secretly looks down on rap

Dude had said over and over he's got bad stagefright when it comes to performing rap

Yall don't listen when the answer is easily available. If big boi and the rest of DF ain't out here making a fuss then why are yall? They understand breh struggle and respect his wishes

He's able to perform the flute cause that's what he feels comfortable doing. Mental health ain't logical, but anxiety is real. You see how everybody dumped on doja cat for forgetting the words. In his mind, he's anticipating the worst from the internet if he makes a mistake. Especially at the rock n roll hall of fame of all places

Yall ain't in that man shoes, so quit tryna tell him why he walking with a limp :unimpressed:

He can go on stage to blow flute tho….

:picard:

Only comfy with something in his mouth

TYRONE GA!
I felt a certain way about that.

Andre not rapping new verses or putting out a rap solo album? Cool. He’s said over and over and OVER that he’s not into rap like that anymore so it is what it is.

But he couldn’t perform a quick medley with Big Boi? On a night where your catalogue and legacy is being celebrated in the highest of pantheons? That IS bullshyt and all the passes and understanding in the world of Andre’s so called creative inclinings don’t give THAT a pass. Hell why even show up at all?

Big has always covered for bruh, so if his own man's doesn't have a problem, then who are we?


And yes, it's wack.

that man is in his 50s. If he doesn't want to perform, then it's his right :laugh: .The only people to blame are you guys hyping him up on that love below singing bullshyt he put out. Yall created this monster that thinks he's Prince. Don't blame him, blame yourselves.

That's understood, but what do he owe his supposed partner and comrade for life, Big Boi?
I mean even if he HAD to do the shyts, just ONE MORE TIME, for something as big as the award show, that if I'm not mistaken, he showed up for,
(I ain't watch the shyts, I'm just reading this thread)
then what's the problem with rocking the mic with his Day 1 if not just for that shyt, especially if they don't have no apparent problems with each other?



Big Boi and Andre have both said they’re still the best of friends and the love between them as brothers is still there.

Big performed, Andre didn’t. This is nothing new and they both did what they were comfortable with and wanted to do and the love and respect they have for each other continues to show.


Their acceptance speeches was the highlight. The love they have for each other, their families, friends and teams showed me their humility and humbleness.


They made it, they won and on their own terms.


You can tell in this thread who has been listening to the music and interviews and who hasn’t.

It doesn't, but seeing as they were musical equals in OutKast, it's hard to make the argument that only 3K belongs in top 5s when his partner has everything he has, plus more :yeshrug:
I could speak the same for Prodigy

His career post Mobb albums while good doesn't warrant him any top 30 discussions yet we regularly put him up there

P was called one of the best rappers on the planet but that was when he was in a group

lol that’s what I don’t be wanting to hear shyt about him being a top 5 emcee. No solo run, don’t be performing, I mean if he’s checked out then that’s his right but why we obliged to take him THAT seriously? And I say that as someone that likes a lot of his past work.
Most overrated rapper in the game ….. and yes I have said it in multiple OutKast threads incase yall nikkaz want to mention that

Don't do that.
Seriously.
Just because you accept Andre's fugazi looking non committal reasons for not wanting to perform with Sax, even though they cool and it's been WELL Noted with many a Graduation picture and Dungeon Family cookout PR shyt, don't mean folk ain't got a reason to be dissapointed to pissed off at duke for not wanting to rock the mic, once again, for something as important as that.
We been known about these "terms" that are out there between them with them being cool with whatever, but don't none of that stop us from WATCHING the nikka be in the same venue knowing that it would fuel fire to speculation as to why he'd let something like that happen, REGARDLESS of his reasons.
But it's whatever at this point, they both healthy and happy with whatever is going on and hopefully this is one of the last times we have to hear/see Andre regarded with anything prominent Hip Hop/Outkast so these conversations don't gain resurgence like they do everytime something like this comes around.

Don't say that "We" haven't read or watched interviews or whatever you were on.
But you still harping on entitlement rather than look at it from the perspective I was talking about, which isn't the fans, so this is a dead conversation as far as I'm concerned.
Be easy.

3 Stacks has always been a complex individual. It seems he has a weird relationship with hip hop and the OutKast brand overall. He literally would perform live on stage in different disguises, platinum wigs and wacky costumes. I don’t think he did all that for attention and to just look cool. He did that as a way to deal with performance anxiety and not show his true self.

Present day, he seems more comfortable in his own skin the further he disassociate himself from hip hop and OutKast. Big Boi still looks happy and proud to be apart of that.

Yeah it’s disappointing as a Outkast Stan that they couldn’t perform together at their hall of fame ceremony but I moved on at thought of them reuniting to perform/make new music a long time ago.

It is what it is.

I said that because if anyone has been listening to the music and interviews then this wouldn’t even be a topic


Peace and blessings
