Last year Outkast rapper, Andre 3000, released an album of flute music after telling hip hop fans he was too old to rap [click here if you missed that].
Over the Memorial Day weekend 3 Stacks flexed his flute muscle at the Atlanta Jazz Festival...
Everyone came out to see his performance. I wanted to see if hearing it again live would draw me more to the sound. It is ragtime jazz and not soul jazz. Hopefully more music to come. He said it was his first performance.
Anyone who has ever played a wind instrument knows you must work on your breathing and having the ability to hold a note. How is he going to get up there and play without being able to hold those notes! Practice Sir, practice!!!!
I was there! Walked all the way from 5th street to Piedmont. I'm happy to cross Andre 3000 of musical artist i got to see live. And it was free as well as his 49th birthday. Give him some grace!

Sorry Ms. Jackson
Nice job 3000. I was there. He fluted me to sleep. After that I took myself the flute home.

Errbody was disappointed
It’s clear his mind is in another place. Let’s call it the Erykah Badu effect. That boy ain’t been the same since.
Boooooooooooooo
Time for a bathroom break.
Don't he know black folks don't want nothing peaceful. On a bright sunny day they got to sh0*
Well at least he is trying to explore his other desires in music. Maybe he needs to practice on the back porch or take some lessons.

In 20 years music scholars will call this performance 'genius' and 'ahead of its time'. π
