For the past few years fans have reported sightings of recording artist Andre 3000 playing his flute around the world [click here and here if you missed that].
Now André dropping an all flute album...
From NPR
For the first time in over 17 years, André 3000 is releasing an album of new music. New Blue Sun – announced today and set to be released this Friday, Nov. 17 – is a stunning 87-minute mind-bender, minimalist and experimental, tribal and transcendent.
One thing it is not, however, is a rap record: No bars, no beats, no sub-bass. André doesn't sing on this joint, either. What he does do is play flute, and plenty of it — contrabass flute, Mayan flutes, bamboo flutes — along with other digital wind instruments. In place of lyrics, he offers eight provocative song titles, the first of which almost reads like a lowkey apology, with a wink of irony: "I swear, I Really Wanted To Make A 'Rap' Album But This Is Literally The Way The Wind Blew Me This Time."

Too bad. The world could use some OutKast.
At this point I’m open to anything in contrast to this degenerative “prostitution rap” music. I’ll be streaming this when it’s released.
Flute on young man. Flute on.
Can't wait to Hear it The flute is a Beautiful Instrument
Great 😒 now I'm gonna have to listen to an entire flute album. I'll give it a chance only because it's Andre 3000 now if some other rapper tried this I would ignore it.
At least he took the time to learn to play an instrument. Even if I don't like it, it's still probably better than many other items on the menu.
I want comment until I hear the first 2 notes. Lolo
Alright!! we might actually get some decent music finally! I can't wait to hear it
if anybody could... I'll wait for it.
I love me some Andre. He could play the Banjo and I’ll sit there listening all googly eyed 😍
