Andre 3000 says hes probably done with hip hop because this genre is not for old rappers

[King Sun]

If anyone was to revive "real" hip hop it would be him to do it too if he dropped a album. He has the mainstream popularity and he connects to purist like us. I just think he's scared to fail and he should just say it.

It was my first time actually talking to Prince. He said: “When you come back, people want to be wowed. And what’s the best way to wow people? Just give them the hits.”

I’m explaining to him that I really didn’t want to do it. He said: “I’ve been there. I’ve tried to do other things. After you give them the hits, then you can do whatever.”

Prince told you to boss up, so you bossed up.

He broke it down like this: “You’re a grown man. You’re either going to do it or you’re not.’

I don't know about yall but this made me respect the gawd Prince even more. Prince out here telling 3 Stacks to stop being a bytch and give the people what they want if you are going to tour. No half assed shyt.

 

[Dig]

Who cares? Andre 3000 has always acted like a bytch regarding this Hip-Hop shyt. Yeah, he's nice, but he probably isn't as nice as people think he is and if anyone is responsible for Outkast not releasing music consistently, it's on him.

 

[RichYung]

Yeah cause Jay needs the moneyThis Nikkas is just shook to release a album by himself.He's like Jay Elec they like the Every time they release a verse a couple times a year.They want to keep that mystique up.Ooooh the mysterious rapperfukk outta here

Exactly.... That's all it is. nikkas can make all the excuses they want.

 

[Dig]

That's my lyrical gawd

 

[TLR Is Mental Poison]

No need for Andre.... Kendrick housed his style to a T

I will never forget how I felt when someone on here said "Bich dont kill my vibe" was an Andre impression

Srsly

Imagine Andre rapping Kendricks words

Anyways Andre owes us nothing... and he gave us a lot of good waves... Im thankful he chose to bow out gracefully... than take the Jay route...

"PICASSO... HASSA!!!!"

Just cause you are alive and well doesnt mean you have to keep recording....

How do you know? You want him to say something he doesn't feel? Maybe he is scared to fail. What happens after he admits it? Nothing changes.

 

[TLR Is Mental Poison]

Yeah cause Jay needs the money

Jay doesnt need the money... but its clear that thats what he does it for

Whens the last time Jay dropped a free song? The S. Carter tape 11 years ago?

And I respect a nikka who chooses not to put out trash over a nikka who does, for no other reason than that nikkas will buy it. It takes way more courage to admit u dont have it anymore than to keep forcing it and pretending like you do.

 

[QamYasharahla]

Look man, if a nikka don't want to rap anymore, that's on him. I can't fault him for that. But this nikka is acting like he consistently releases music and albums, and just don't want to do anymore. I don't understand why y'all can't see that this nikka is caught up in his arrogance. You don't think he reads and hears that HE is the nikka in Outkast, and Big Boi is the weak link? Dre might be better than Big Boi, but they came in the game together as a collectiv, not on no solo shyt. In reality, he's fukked up Big Boi money by not wanting to drop new material or go on tour for so many years. As if rap ain't the reason this nikka could do movies, cartoons etc. I just think that nikka is full of himself. I look at him the same way i look at Dre with the Detox shyt. Nobody gives a fukk if you come out with it or not.

Stacks is on that Nas, Scarface, or Snoop level. None of them are going to revive it. Difference is, stacks from his actions and this interview, to me at least, sounds disillusioned with Hip Hop. It sounded like he was saying, What's the point anymore? The sad reality is, either conform to the hipsters *cough* *cough*. Or admit to yourself, that the game has has changed too much.

RZA is on the same tip, and no one is mad at him.

I don't know this seems to be my point from my opinion.

[frush11]

I dont quite understand folks like Dre, why do have to make music for the kids for(aint like they actually buy music) That attitude has really hurt this music
