Oct 28, 2024 André 3000 has released a new 26-minute song featuring something of a hidden rap verse from the OutKast legend. 3 Stacks contributed a song called “Something Is Happening and I may Not Fully Understand but I’m Happy to Stand for the Understanding” to a new compilation album called Transa: Select, which was released in support of transgender awareness and also features tracks from the likes of Sade and Sam Smith. At nearly half an hour in length, the meandering, meditative track is almost entirely instrumental and wouldn’t sound out of place on André’s debut solo album New Blue Sun. Where it differs from the material on that project, though, is that the rap icon’s vocals can be heard near the end of the track, but what he is saying is not inaudible and appear to be played in reverse.
Oct 28, 2024 I’m going to see him perform 2 weeks from now in Durham. I’m not sure how much I’ll enjoy the flute playing, but I like him so much I’m going anyway
Oct 28, 2024 I loved the album he dropped last year so I'll probably check this out (26 minutes for an ambient track is a feat of endurance after all)
