Andre 3000 "There Are No Plans For Another OutKast Album"



In a new interview, Andre 3000, one half of hip-hop duo OutKast, says that there is no new music from him and Big Boi in the works.

"There's been a lot of talk on the Internet about an OutKast album and I have to say that as of now, there are no plans for another OutKast album," the rapper tells GQ. The duo's last proper album was 2006's "Idlewild," and while Big Boi released a solo album, "Sir Lucious Left Foot: The Son of Chico Dusty," in 2010, Andre 3000 has spent the downtime lending guest verses to artists like Ke$ha, Drake and B.o.B.

"As far as OutKast, I really don't know if or when that will happen."
