As a person who has been proclaimed as a real MC such as this guy, we have to really question wtf is going on with this


He's one of the best MC's of all time, that's not even debatable. This is no reflection of what he used to be as a rapper. He's just not a rapper anymore. There's nothing really to question if you did any research/know why this album is the way it is. He has explained numerous times over the years of why he isn't rapping. he's not trying to be an old rapper trying to stay relevant and look stupid because he has no idea what is cool with the young generation like so many rappers have in the past. He plays the flute now and that's what he likes to do. He's really good at playing the flute so he made an album, it's pretty simple.

Leslie Jones and Jordan Klepper discussing the album on The Daily Show:

quote:

“Oh, you know what? This is a beautiful, fascinating experiment in — ” Jordan Klepper began, before Jones cut him off (the two tag-teamed the headlines segment of the show on Thursday).

“No!” Jones screamed. “No it is not! I gotta say something Jordan; this man is one of the greatest rappers of all time. We have been waiting 17 years for this motherf—er to release a new album. And it’s all flute?! I’m gon’ kill somebody!”

“This is how you know the white people are winning,” she added. “Y’all done turned Andre 3000 into Jethro Tull!”

Klepper disagreed though, arguing that this is a “brave” move by Andre 3000. And to that, Jones actually did agree.

“Yeah it’s brave. ‘Cause if you play that s— in the hood, you gon’ get your arse beat,” she fired back.


The Wrap. I don't usually agree with Leslie Jones but she is almost 100% correct. White people didn't turn Andre into Jethro Tull, they turned him into Yanni. Jethro Tull is much cooler. I get Andre wants to move on and this is where his head is at but it still sucks. Big Boi released BOOMIVERSE in 2017 and it had this banger: All Night.
