I think rap has to be the only genre of music that people will say you're too old. And a bunch of rappers end up retiring with a ton of good music left on the table. And no one will ever hear it. That sucks.
What about Pop, Death Metal, Grunge and, Punk?
do you rap? It takes a certain energy thats inside of you to rap. There is a point where its not fun anymore.
@@valoruniversityi mean when a 50 year old rapper is out rapping everyone one it means something is wrong … and how much energy do y need to do the mumble rap and the sht Travis Scott and playboy carty do ? Lmao
I believe ppl saying “your too old” stems from us as a culture not having the growth of being able to rap about anything other than money, sex, cars, jewelry, etc. Until it’s accepted by the consumer to rap about anything we will continue to listen to the same content.
@@scottkeanu damn right . And whats popular most of it its trash ... but if you are nice with it like eminem y can rap until t die
I actually think being a 40-50 year old rapper who feels like he doesn’t belong anymore is a topic to write music about. I would be surprised if he is setting us up for that type of rap album. We need our legends to address that stigma.
RIGHT!!!, and FROM that ultimate get TO, the TRUTH❗️❗️, that’s beHIND that stigma!!!…
some do a little
Even if he doesn’t want to rap anymore, he could still make incredible music with his vocal presence expressing himself. I think most of the public disappointment comes from the fact that it’s an all instrumental album that’s basically meditation music lol not that he doesn’t specifically rap on it. People just want to hear his voice & its vocal expression in some form.
Nah word
Right nobody gets mad at all those old rockstars that still make music. They’re fans still listen even if it’s fans than b4
Look at Nas. He just put out 6 projects in a 3 year span that was some of his best work, and was already considered one of the GOATs before that. Everyone’s different.
There's a very few that can do. Some people outgrew it and don't want to rap anymore.
Busta Rhymes also just put out a new album but I don't know how good it is.
Perfect example of craft being ageless.
Yeah but no matter how hard his music is it’ll never have the same affect as his music did in his prime which was the 90s
@@rollcaskett1812too much catering to the young crowd which actually works to Andre's point.
Nas is 50 and his new albums hit harder than ever
We are not monolithic though. We should be able to love and respect that Black men can all be on different positive paths.
Andre is just making excuses and the delusional people are eating it up
He has nothing to say. Find something to do with your life
I remember slowly fading away from Nas when I started to understand his style. Even then he’s still legendary and Illmatic is arguably the best rap album of all time. But I felt like he threw away the formula with “life is good” in 2012 and as an adult that became by favorite nas album ever. It just felt he threw away all the mystique and got real and I finally had a Nas album I could depend on for whatever I was going through
Damn he 50 time flies yo

Outkast has more substance than that "Ms. Jackson" sounds very grown as does "Hey Ya". "The Love Below" didn't need any of those topics to be the album it was.
YUP
Tbf he never rapped about any of that
Facts!
I was 12 when i first heard Jada im 39 now Thanks for all the dope verses and memories. 💯✊🏾
I first heard the lox actually Rap when I was 16 about to be 17, but I always heard about them when they were the warlocks years earlier. When I first heard them rap though I was hooked and I knew they was something special that I never heard!
Oh yeah I’m 44 yo.
Jada said "thank you" and to hit him up sometime
Remember jada use to roc, the paper towel 😂 headband, mane we use to where some sh@$t, well it was a east coast thing. You getting ready for the 4-0 cause I'm ready this 🎉year, more health and wisdom, to friends and family much love.✌🏾
Same ❤❤❤
Andre 3k and Jadakiss both has same birthdate both great
People forget that Andre been looking outside of Rap for inspiration. He worked with Cartoon Network for two seasons for Class of 3000 - he gave those an album worth of music that HE wrote and produced - then did the voices so the actors can know what to do on the record. He was in his Jimi Hendrix bag for a hot minute too - those last two Outkast albums were basically solo records - that were NOT rap. Especially The Love Below. Let Dre do his thing and if he ever want to get his head back to rapping I KNOW Killer Mike can guide him on how to get it done in this day and age.
Nuff said
No one forgot that lol. I also doubt the failed cartoon he had from 20 years ago has anything to do with his recent music.
Bro I loved that cartoon
Give big boi his flowers is all I can say. Dude had hits with outkast he had hits without outkast but yet still gets no love? Make it make sense. Everybody know speakerbox was better than the love below
Last part for sure. Killer Mike dropped arguably his best body of work over the last few years.
Andre was never just a “rapper” tho! He’s always been a MUSICIAN! He just happens to rap better than everyone!
He can’t be in goat conversations.
@@viperrecords3288 Lauren Hill can so can Andre3000. Let me make it easy for you, Whoever you have in your GOAT convos, They have Andre3000 in their GOAT convos😭. I'll trust their judgement over yours.
@@the77th I didn’t say anything about Lauren Hill. You Andre fan boys can’t argue facts. He has no solo albums. He ain’t competing. End of story.
@@viperrecords3288 Cry more 😭 I don't even care much about andre, You're just wrong 😭😭😭😭 My GOAT list Starts with Phonte Coleman, Elzhi, JayZ, Eminem, Common.... i don't even have andre in my top 10. but for You to claim he doesn't belong in to convo of GREATEST LYRICIST EVER is a COMPLETE JOKE 😭😭😭
"he doesn't have a solo album" 😭 What's "The Love Below" ?
He don't rap better than anyone man tell me a hot Andre 3000 bar
let that man live, damn. i can see why he stepped away and i'm just happy he's even making anything at all. creating never dies out unless you want it to.
He was explaining this very situation in today's time back on the Idlewild album song Mighty "O" take a listen to his verse and rewind it a few times .
💯💯💯🗣️🗣️🗣️!!….
A intelligent creative person as 3stacks is will always look for more challenges to conquer you get bored doing the same thing for years he mastered rap now he wants to master something else and I'm here for it
There will be no second mastery. He will just be frustrated. That flute thing was trash…and not because it is the flute. It’s because he is not good at it. As a community, we miss the ultimate point of EVERYTHING. He could have been a part of a movement that FINALLY put an end to the ‘too old’ thing that ONLY exists in the Blk community. Rock stars can be eighty. Wht stars can do whatever they want for as along as they want, but we have put time limits on everything. It’s tragic how we do not see that we are our worst enemy, at this point. We don’t think communally. We don’t think we owe our community…the kids..the future anything. We believe we can just take…and not return the investment that was given. Other communities see that. There is no way the Rolling Stones who are EIGHTY, still get along…haven’t had huge rifts….HOWEVER…they still tour and make a few hundred million right quick to further solidify their kids’ kids’ kids’ kid’s futures. We don’t get that. It’s a shame.
@@marcelmarshall4240 No the problem in our community is that our people want to make these celebrities our savior and forget that they are only human and can do what they want and they didn't ask to be our savior we need to put that energy in to God and worry about making things better in our own house and community and we not with him every day you don't know what he do for others and just doesn't televise it for likes and our approval worry about what you do for yours y'all kill me with thinking these celebrities supppose to be a superhero come here to rescue us naw get off your ass and go make a difference if that's what you want to do and please believe his kids ain't got nothing to worry about he is very rich and I'm sorry if you don't like the flute album but I bet you it's a lot of people that do like it he don't have to prove nothing to you or who else thats part of the reason he don't be wanting to do music anymore because people like you want to put your own requirements on him and he just wants to be free to do what he wants when he wants to as he should
take your meds pop. u r on the edge talking nonsense again. @@marcelmarshall4240
I started playing the native flute a while back. It changes the way you think, speak and your body. He has ascended.
I played the recorder in the 2nd grade. Enjoyed it and it welcomed me to music. I played the trombone from 2nd to 10th grade. Just sounds and learning an instrument is a different experience. I’m happy for Andre.
Witchcraft
No he has ascended to Jupiter. Guy is lost
Lmfao!!!!!!😂🤣🤣😂
Wtf are u talking about.
Playing a flute dont change shit
@@jackstar6018 have you learned to play a instrument?
Nah fuck that age shit. We need that Prostate of Mind from 3000!
There’s two sides to every coin and honestly I ain’t mad at this opinion this new generation would FEAST on some 3K surprisingly
People change as they get older. Things I was into 20 years ago, I'm no longer into. Once you've been there and done that, you don't have the same fire as you did when you were younger. I think this is where Andre is at.
That is nothing but the truth.
I think Melo touched on it the best. Sometimes you get bored. It happens. Doesn't change the greatness. I sincerely hope everyone here is happy or finds a way to happiness. Formula: Progress = Happiness
Great pod and great conversation on this topic. The voice still needs to be heard and the youth will gravitate and find their new music.
When people uses age it’s like their limit themselves or use as an excuse not to interact. But growing maturity to move forward to another level to interact is an always a wiser path to make it call purpose everybody have their own way to get their message out to reach rather it’s books, texts, your voice, and your physical action towards others. We are constructive to reach out in many forms I get what Andre is feeling it’s like if you move on up to higher dimensions you don’t look back you just keep rising and your message deliver different than your past message
Rakim can still rap circles around everyone. Age is just a number when it comes to rap. U literally get wiser with age
Andre, Andre 2k, Andre 3k, whatever era you listen to him in, he’s Top 5 MC💯
1 hit song can and will change your life forever. 3stacks(Andre 3000)has multiple #1 hit songs that are still RELEVANT TODAY. Sir Mix A lot has made One hundred million dollars off of baby got back so Andre 3000 is definitely living his best life..
But the only song that comes close to Baby Got Back in that way from Andre is Hey Ya. As far as becoming a part of mainstream culture, being seen in movies and commercials for years after its release, being known by older white people who aren’t even hip hop fans. You’re set if you have one song like that.
He didn’t make $100M you goofy
@@kavid8120 are you a bot? Replying on RUclips before you do your research and then make a post is so mediocre.. Calling my fact checked post and me goofy is the problem with people like you. STUPID

Same reason we aint heard from Pharrell since he dropped Happy....
Speakerboxx/The Love Below is the #1 selling Hip Hop album ALL TIME. And make no mistake, if they were sold separately The Love Below would be the #1 selling album Hip Hop all time based strictly off HEY YA.
Yo Mero fat Joe impression is on point 😅😂
the mannerisms lmao
"I got goosePumps"
aahhhh that's fly too of my favs got the same bday and 2 days after mine!! ♊♊ 3 Stacks is 🔥 no matter what medium he chooses to make his art!! i just hope keeps sharing it with us. i fux with the flute album🙌🏾❤🖤💚
Once passion and drive is gone, you won't see or hear the natural art in the talent. Enjoy his catalogue or standby
Seriously, these other dumb mfs can't figure out something so simple. They think rap is just putting some words together.
Andre said he had nothing more to say
Silence is a golden thing .
An art that most men forget .
"When I was a child I did childish things"...
He has evolved.
That's great thing.
Some of these rappers should step aside for the next generation.
Natural order of life.
FACTS, the more wiser you become the LESS you have to say!! This is biblical understanding. Grace & Peace
The fact that they both were born in the exact same day is truly mind-blowing! 2 of the best MCs of their times. It should be a holiday or something.
Speaking on the topic, I think that Andre only shared his perspective. At the moment, he just don't feel like rapping anymore. He found other ways to express himself. I respect the question and even more so the answer, it's good that we still care and remember about him, but I think that we should stop talking about his personal reasons and reflections on art, just enjoy what he's done for the culture and let him do his sh^t. I believe that the more we talk about why he left, is it "forever-forever-ever-forever-ever?" and is there any chance for maybe another Outkast or his first full LP rap solo album, the less chances we have to experience it. Andre's already proved that he's not to be forced with his creative process and HE DON"T OWE US SH*T. One of the last who stood true to himself. I know it's hard, but maybe we should just let him be?
Summed up nice 👌🏻
This is the best lane for the show: having a charismatic guest who Melo can sit back and listen to while Mero makes jokes
3k dropped a verse THIS year. Check out Killer Mikes record “Scientists & Engineers”.
In that song Andre was on brand, profound & rapped a very fire verse. I think Andre still has a lot to talk about but it has to come to him authentically not just for the simple sake of making a record.
And Mike killed him on that song. Dre was weak.
@@MrWatevaman listen again... Mike verse was better.
@@MrWatevaman smh... All I can say is listen to it again.
@@Mac_DNHMike didn't kill him he just mentioned a bunch of things people care about. people get tricked by that in rap all the time just cuz u mention a bunch of cool things don't mean u killed. andre flow was better. subject matter, concept of the lyrics, storytelling.
@@Mac_DNH:
Mike was good on the album, but nooooo way he outshone 3K; Andre's musical resume by itself shelves anything Mike's done...
Did Mike win THAT Grammy on his own?? NOPE... He won it for featuring on a OuKast song 📬💯
I'm still here I'm old school keep bringing us that flava we need it
The colonoscopy - got “some shit” to get off - analogy had me dying 😂😂 4:20
You are never too old to do it when the talent is authentic. But you can grow past the desire to do so.
Hip hop may expand into other areas because of him, musicians may become more popular again like quest love, roots, and others making new music to sample from.
Jada @ Maddison Square Garden has to be one of the most legendary moments in Hip Hop
Jada is still #1 in my book. Crazy flow
🤡🤡🤡
Same, Kiss, Styles, Siegel, Nas and Sean Price. Thats my top 5
Glad Jadakiss and Little Brother got the right mindset and haven't got caught up in age ism
Respect to all yall , 2024 smash all the boundrys , much love from New Zealand
Hip hop going through a mid life crisis
Lol
That leather melo got on is 🔥🔥 I think imma grab
Taurus gang over here!!!
Its isnt the Genre that he claims he's too old for, its the Subject matter & Topics that drive Hip Hop. Rappers be in their 50's still being call "Lil,Young and rapping about lifestyles they aint lived in decades"
At some point dignity gains more value than the desire for attention.
Facts
On the real, as a 40 plus emcee myself, it feels good to know that I also share my birthday with two of my favorite hip hop emcees, talking bout 3 stacks and Jada🎉
most Rappers are not musicians, but Andre 3000 is a musician and did make musics, and his rappers sounded like singing.
This podcast is fire. Im glad he had Tyrese on 💪🏽 J. Cole has a good podcast here man, im glad. Tyrese voice sounds kinda like Jadakiss.
Hahaha. I grew up listening to rap as a teenager… now being older I feel that “blood pressure rising”. I’d buy that album.
😂
Just know when 3 stacks come back that shi’ gone “EPIC”
Andre is not crazy. He knows what he's saying. He knows what he's feeling. He never said no one his age or older should rap. He's just speaking about himself. Much respect to Jada for speaking his mind but respecting 3000's standpoint. All the other rappers "Calling him out" about his decision, I believe are just STANs using their platform to try and lure Andre out of rap-retirement.
And though I would love-more than anyone- for Andre to come out with some more rap shit, or hook back up with Big Boi, if his heart isn't in it... I can't sit here and talk about that man and what he SHOULD be doing based off my feelings and desires.
MERO WAS ALWAYS THE FUNNY ONE! happy to see this
i opened this video just to comment this. YOU ARE NEVER TOO OLD TO RAP GRISELDA ARE ALL OLDER AND KILLIN THE GAME
Andre is still HipHop, he’s just not rapping at the moment. Doesn’t change his legacy - his verse on life of the party was one of the best of the year. I’m glad he’s not just throwing lacklustre verse after verse out here to be “relevant”. His latest album might not be for me but the man has earned the right to do whatever he wants.
Music no matter what type you make, you can never be to old because
it's an art form of expression.
In as much as i understand where Andre is, i beg to differ as i believe that as long as you're living you got something to learn and teach.
3K can do whatever the f he wants, the dude is well beyond just hip-hop. An artist of the highest calibre
(The WAY you PUT it💯💯!!…..)TALK TO ‘EM!!
Jada is so dope.
folks are mad cause 3000 evolved. they got they own lives and experiences. If you not into meditation music, it's not gonna be for you. getting salty about what another man wants to do with his life is crazy.
Jadakis voice made him unique some times you don’t need to rap different but your voice does the difference for you
🔥 We lost a lot of good ones..dope mcs! in the game. Happy sun is still with us. Top 5!!!
I remember jada use to say he was retiring at 30. But them albums ain’t really sale like that
True
40 & 50 should mean you have growth and knowledge to put out there showing what longevity looks like. Show people what it looks like to stay true to the art, because your fans are still out here ready to consume. I’ve been seeing an influx of a lot of youngsters commenting on RUclips videos of 90’s music the past couple of years as well, talking about how much they like it and wish they were around in them days. They don’t like this new stuff as much either! It all sounds the same and has no message. So I see no reason for the older rappers to stop!
You’re never too old if you got bars!
@2:05 Gemini Life Path 9 in numerology...Extremely gifted humanitarians
Andre 3000 was the weird guy when he was making his music back then and people hated on him. So why you expect him to not keep doing him? People grow and start to love to do new things. Let them live
because nas was hated on and called a introvert and guess what he is doing. its just an excuse
@@lanceprimusprimus hes a talented man, but we want them bars, dude used to be in the running for top 5, but without a body of work to prove it.....eh....... glad he's alive, but i wanted to hear more bars from Andre.
Damn straight ✌️
Interesting Indeed... and Jadakiss should definitely keep going... I go back to that Versus moment now and again. As for Andre 3000... I swear I saw picture of him in the Studio with Pharoahe Monch and someone else... 🤔☮
The generations that followed André 3000 -- Childish Gambino, Kendrick, and especially really young'uns like Saba -- have an introspective style that will still resonate when they're 50+ and churning out records because their reflections on life will be increasingly profound over time. And if André decides to go that route, it will be 🔥. Skills like his don't just vanish. I don’t care how long it's been.
Some people progress, and challenge themselves by trying new things; others stay complacent and keep doing the same thing. It’s all good. We’re all different…Thank GOD🙏🏽
Hip Hop is ART do it forever!!!!!!!
Fuego🔥. Thank you, Algorithm.
Ayo Andre, we needs that Prostanoscopy 3000 album/EP bruh, i don't care if the first single is called Horseshoes or Meet Me at Crosswords, we need that to grow greys to
andré found the sense of life.
It’s 100% a difference between blues & southern blues & jazz & southern jazz
The first I ever recorded was on a reel to reel at the radio station at LIU. Shout out to Mike and Kalolo.Hip hop game a long way!!
Wow interesting interview.
Can not compare Andre to anyone tho. Maybe he should not say like that. But he just transformed his music as rap music to now different type of arts.. So its up to each individual. Love Andre so much. Jada kiss i listen to. Everyone can do whatever i respect.
Dre 3000 would be a breath of fresh air to his fan base who is also getting older as well.
Im 37 I have a unbelievable talent but I say Im too old bc my wisdom has advanced beyond my age...
Everything gets old...
May 27 !!!!!!!!!!
That versuz was so freaking dope. It gave me chills. I sat my wife down and was like yo watch this, she was like wtf lol. I loved it tho 😂
We need a LOX Album please s p the ghost
It’s not just 3000 feeling too old, he has even spoke to Eminem about feeling not confident enough to rap again. I think Andre will drop something whether it be features or a small EP once he gains that confidence and motivation again. I feel like he can’t be done until he at least does some features with other older rappers like Eminem, Nas, Jada or whoever. It will happen. Who knows, he could’ve already cooked some shit up but just hasn’t released it.
I’m glad rappers are speaking up about what he said that really annoyed me when 3000 said that BS !
Keep your heart 3 stacks
“Blood Pressure 2: Rising” Lololololol
The perfect genre for All sports!! Every single one!!
Any 50 year older rapper still having something to say hasn't made it.... Andre 3000 is right.
Bunch of bitter and jealous grownups in the comment section hating on another black man because of his opinion and choices that cause no harm and doesn’t affect ya’ll in a negative way. Just be happy he’s alive and well, being himself and living the way he wants.
Im proud to say I share the same birthday as Kiss, 3000 and Left Eye.
5-27...right here too🎉
That Pelle is ...💥..🔥🔥🔥👍...Bmore memories..😁
I would love to see Kiss and 3 Stacks do a track together...
PELLE IS FIRE MELO I WAS LOOKING LIKE DAMN.
I thought ninjas was tryna fuck up melos name on purpose, then i peeped the description 😂
As for Jadakiss.. he also has some dope ass tracks and his skill and stage presence is still there as we saw on Versus. Still tops of spitters in my list.
I feel like Andre approaches rap similar to punk music all about energy and feeling where a lot of his contemporaries see it closer to jazz something you can age into and improve with time .
"Communication comin' in
Too much that I can't communicate with all of them
I do wish I had scientist or engineer friends
Let's go, get out of here, petrol is cheaper than it's ever been
And then, who's to say when it all would end?
All I know is when the portrait painted better have your portion of the rent
A dollar more and you will get upgraded
When you've think you've made it, you are then
Just tolerated, overrated
Hope I'm eighty when I get my second wind"- Andre 3K
Peace to The Gemini
Three stacks is three thousand light years a head fam. He is a painter, a producer, and plays multiple instruments. It ain't just about rap . Do ya thing Three stacks.
E-40, 52 years old, Kool Keith, 60 years old, both still dope as f*ck!
Andre has opened up about mental health issues recently, namely depression.i would recommend his appearance on Rick Rubin’s podcast where they get into it pretty deep.
Lol, my G said from vinyl to satellite!! That's #Hilarious and so #TRUE
This doesn't surprise me about 3000. He's always been an eccentric/artsy kinda dude. That's dope for him to want to experiment with different types of music/ideas. Thinking outside the box is never a bad thing.
Nobody is too old to rap but the material has to be more mature.
Andre been said he’s done. Kinda late on the talk about him being over it. Years ago Andre said he too old for rap. I agree. Drake too damn old to making music for teenagers but he still doing it. Mental mentality is on a different level. Called being mature and moving on to the next big thing within his life.
