I am so sick of videos of people saying what he could have been this man has went platinum double Platinum triple platinum and even diamond and has even starred in number one movies what the f*** else do you guys want from him?? He's done everything he has to do in music even won a few Grammies there are artists who have come way after him who have said he is one of their favorite artists when you have accomplished everything in music there is nothing else to prove he has nothing else to prove in music The Love below is technically a solo album so I don't know why people are pressuring him to put out an album because if he put out an album and you guys don't like it all you guys are going to do is complain so I don't blame him things are best left the way it is
"You either dye a hero or live to see yourself live long enough to become a villain" that's Andre in a nutshell. We've seen what happens when a legend gets consumed by fame and fortune (starts with a k and ends with West) and I personally appreciate that 3K left the game. Cause personally, I'm getting tired of all our legends turning into undercover corporate mascots.
A Lot of People Really Be Getting in Their Own Way. I Think Andre 3000 is Hard but When People Gas Him and Forget Big Boi it’s Wild Disrespectful. Big Boi Got Platinum singles and albums and signed Janelle Monae respect that man.
A few years ago I seen Ander 3000 just walking down the streets minding his own buisness. Dude was in his own world as if he was'nt aware of who he was. So I did'nt disturb him as he was just taking his good ol' time walking down the street in his own zone.
or perhaps he wanted some human interaction, he's not a hermit, he does flute concerts for hundreds of people, he likes the attention, maybe he was slowly walking down the street alone because he wanted someone to start a conversation with him?
He's still one of the GOATS and he can afford to drops a verse whenever he wants to, by his own standards, on his own terms. There a peace that comes with that but the kiddies will never understand
@@j-dub22 i like this channel but he's reaching on Andre he left the rap business while he was still very popular and he's a very good actor And his afro look , he could play Jimi Hendrix in a biopic and win an Oscar
Dre can come back anytime and make hits. He's the type of artist who can bend genres I could see this guy experiment with rock or country and mix it with rap and it still go hard. Picture him working with Kanye, Q-Tip, Neptunes, or just about any producer left of center and it's masterpieces waiting to happen.
I agree with everyone saying he wasn't stunted. He accomplished a lot during his run, and was very influential. Yeah, he never officially dropped a solo album, but with the work he has given us, and accolades he's gotten, no way I'd say he was stunted. I love the series though, keep it up!
I have to agree. I am noticing that a lot of people with the opinion of him stunting himself are usually under a certain age, and I do understand the perspective in that sense. I also do understand that because he never put out a solo body of work in his "prime", many people don't get it. But to say he was stunted and really discount all of the work he has done over the last 29 years is not good. However I know over the last few years, a new generation have developed a microscopic fascination with Andre particularly, because him being a recluse almost makes little sense to some people. Why is someone so great so reclusive, is what seems to be what most people try to figure out and he has always been so private. I think we should celebrate Big Boi and Andre 3000 as the musical icons they were and still are. They both are still keeping up in their own ways and really, I can't say I blame them for doing what they do.
It's really eye opening how a man that wrote some of the best verses in his respectable genre can doubt himself. I wonder if he understands how many people dropped their jaws whenever they heard a new Andre 3000 verse and he is the only rapper I ever heard who never dropped a verse that was boring or average in his career (besides Big L) . His bars are never just ok they go beyond and over. I hope his human mind one day grasps the fact he is a God Level Emcee and can never be played out..real heads know his lyrics are timeless
He was an excellent producer as well. When I heard the song that he produced for Aretha Franklin's last studio album "Nothing Compares 2 U " I had to do a double take at the credits on the song. To hear how well he arranged the track and got the Queen to do some more jazz was a epic!
One of the greatest duos EVER!!!!! It's hard for some of us as fans to realize that they're human just like us. Regardless of money or fame he's still susceptible to the problems and struggles we all have to face. Sucks cause they were truly incredible.
Do DAS EFX - and yes, Andre 3000 stunted himself, but it was after he made himself an icon - but incredible video as usual and I can't argue with it......and yes, if Andre 3000 dropped an album today, it would blow up......

I'm not sure about that I like 3k but I think at this point he has a niche fan base that would definitely Bump it (myself included) but I don't it going number one
I think you need to do a video on explaining what your criteria is on how an artist growth is stunted. Alot of your videos lately have been on reach with certain artists growth being stunted. Andre had major success. More then so many artist during his era and even with today's standard.
He's still one of the greatest ever. Sometimes he's in my top 3, sometimes he's my number 1. And I think it's time to start recognizing The Love Below as a solo album. Even if it was released under the 'OutKast' name, he more than carried his own throughout that whole album and gave us a classic. And the endless amount of top tier feature verses prove to me that he hasn't lost it
Can't say Stunted Growth to this, 3 Stacks is a Top 10 or 5 MC of all time, to include him Big Boi been owning their masters damn near since they started. HE STRAIIIIGHT!!

Aquemini is still my go to album to this day. We'll never know unless 3000 actually speaks about it himself. As a fellow Gemini I know that we like to keep to ourselves which I strongly believe he's doing. He's my favorite mc mostly because I can relate to the planetary expression. 3000 isn't coming back to make music, I highly doubt he will. It's all in the name (Outkast) too imo. Since their debut album I knew they weren't going to make music for too long together anyways. 12 years is a long enough time. And Big Boi will continue doing his thing. Goodie Mob too. But the Outkast business is gone.
Been listening to listening to Southernplayalisticcaddillacfunkymuzic and Atliens albums past couple months and wow Outkast has to be the best hip hop group ever.
I look at Andre the same way ppl look at Haley's comet. It doesn't come around often, but when it does it was amazing to see. And 3 STACKS is the same way. When he's featured on a song, WE ALL LISTEN .
He gets all the sunflowers🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻 all the Roses🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹this Legend will always and forever be one of the coldest of all time, he is in my top 5, and he proved that ATL had something to say!! Love you Andre 3K #andre3000 Outkast 4lifw
He wasn’t technically stunted because OutKast flourished but in a way he was stunted because he could have done so much more by branching out and making his own solo catalogue. You can tell by the way he murders every feature he’s on. It’s like what if Bo Jackson never got injured.
I honestly don’t want another 3000 album. I like his catalogue. Those of us in the south know that 3000 has Goodie Mob and Dugeon family verses that are classics to go along with his OutKast body of work. I think Jay-Z has misconstrued what success is. If Jay -Z actually retired when he said he was . Would you say his growth was stunted also? 3000’s Love Below album was so far ahead of its time it’s scary. And he made majority if not all the beats. I can respect him leaving the game when the passion is no more vs. these dudes just making quick money off these thoughtless raps diminishing their own legacies.
I'm 43yrs old. I was 15 when SouthernPlayalistic came out. That album and the Kast albums that followed have truly shaped my life and me as a person. In my humble opinion NOTHING about 3000 career is stunted... In my humble opinion he is the greatest lyricist of my hip hop listening lifetime... I'd rather not hear a forced solo album and just enjoy all the bars he has blessed us with. Would I like to get another Kast album or a solo 3stacks project of course I would. But not dissatisfied with what 3k and Big Boi have given us...
@@joshuabryant8504 Right , whatever inner demon he was facing led to him not feeling worthy...I guess that's still qualified as a fear .. He fears not being worthy and puts himself down as a result of something he'd done
Come on man. Andre is top 5 all time. Lyrically almost nobody can touch him, and he's probably the only artist besides Black Thought that when he drops a verse to this day, the entire hip hop community stops to listen. The man is unquestionably one of the GOAT's. Anyone who says otherwise is just mad he's living life on his own terms now. He doesn't owe us anything.
At first I was on the side of no solo album= can't be the goat , but just the fact he's so high on every reputable hip hop heads list means he's a goat
Said this before but I’m convinced of a few things here. 1. People do not fully understand “stunted” growth. 2. Most do not watch or listen to the videos 3. JC gives it up to the artist EVERYTIME! It’s not for everyone to agree with because that’s not always the case with myself. I’m fine with the singles and features because honestly a underwhelming solo project would probably be worse than what we get. 3 Stacks has been great for the culture and I’m glad he’s living his felt purpose
This is my favorite rapper of all time and nobody can tell me nothing about em because I witnessed his career before my eyes instead of doin research this again was another crazy that wasn't even worth making he's a legend when you end your career on that note like most can't should tell you somethin but I guess it doesn't
His growth was never stunted he did his thing and he let himself out the game.He didn't let anything bother him as a father n as a man. He's living his life as a human being.
I personally think that including Andre3000 in this video series is the most typical way to bring down the fact that he is and was as great as you say he "could've" been. I like your series but not this one. Its a reach... a looonngg reach...!!!
Can y'all *IMAGINE IF* , the ever so talented Highly Respected Critically acclaimed Award Winning Bar Spitter named, *ANDRÉ 3STACKS* had the Social Media Presence and Charismatic Personality&Ego as *Sauce Walka* (for example) 🤯🤯🤯🤯🙆♂️🙆♂️🙆♂️🙆♂️ *ANDRÉ* would have quadrupled his Net Worth ANNNNNNND would have probably been held to a waaaay more higher regard than *JAY-Z* in nowadays society 🤞🤞🤞🤞.... This episode is literally the pinnacle of the subject topic 🤞💯 🏁
The all time GOAT!!! Dre changed the way I see, hear, feel and interact with the world and the people in it. The only mcee to ever make me laugh allowed and cry on the same song. I was blessed enough to get to hang with him on 4 occasions and he is as humble and cool as you would imagine him being. The only thing better than the way he raps, is the way he lives!!
Bro IS one of the greatest and that isn’t a debate and he doesn’t need to do anything, and I mean ANYTHING, to prove otherwise. Can’t believe this is even a questionn
man, i knew he would come into the picture sooner or later. Andre 3000 is always gonna be a tricky slope to determine if his growth was stunned. he did win multiple Grammys and all. But i understand. he could have been one of the biggest solo artists of all time if he just had taken that plunge into it.
This was just hard to watch knowing he's a legend people think you're suppose to be hot your whole career well guess what...? It just doesn't work like that😑
Going 2 jail and music changing is what stunted pats growth. But, at the same time I think he reached his potential as a gangsta rapper from Memphis. His first two official albums are 🔥. Laying the smack down is good 2 but not on the level as the previous 2 and I think he was in jail when that came out. After that it was pretty much downhill as music changed. Also he started messing with different producers which changed his sound more. Project pat is by far my favorite out the hcp and I still bump him to this day.
I mean no disrespect you because I value the efforts you put in but the story of Andre 3000 is much different than what it is sensationalized to be. Andre has been saying he didn't want to be a rapper in his 40's since the late 90's, even before he recognized social anxieties or social pressures. * I am not a good writer and I do apologize for any repetition or era. I know due to the way a lot of old footage and content have been erased or "lost" in the development of social media, it is hard to show sources as proof but that's simply the truth. So there has always been this desire of his to "step away" a bit. And he did, maybe for many reasons but he had always spoken about age. Long, long before he was even old. And now, there seems to be a narrative that gen-z have kind of crafted around Andre that's not completely correct but I think it's possibly due to not necessarily growing up with Outkast in entirety for some or not being old enough to understand the hip-hop landscape at the time in general.
lot of people who are too young don't understand the musical landscape Outkast came out of. Some of the appreciation he has been shown over the last year or two specifically is very much superficial and lacking nuance. Outkast came out of The Dungeon Family, the whole group were anomalies in terms of talent. Outkast brought something new and different every single album. By the time Andre and Big Boi made their last album, rap was really permeating into mainstream. Reaching that sort of success at that time without even touring for their biggest album was unheard of. I'm not the best at writing but what I'm trying to get across is the 'stunted growth' narrative is not completely correct. I get the sentiment because after many years of teasing a solo body of work, he never really did it. And that's okay, it's time for people to also appreciate him for what he is and where he is. It's not impossible but I think a true fan would really appreciate all he has done over the years instead of try to bring him back into a musical landscape that is 100% different than it was when he was really active. He has felt that way for 20 years, he said it in a lot of interviews. He also wanted to explore other genres of music. TLB wasn't even a hip-hop album, for example. He didn't want it to be one. Hey Ya also wasn't even supposed to be the first single, and a lot would be different if it wasn't. It also was supposed to have Killa Mike on it.. We have to communally let Andre 3000 be. And as a unit, really respect the duo of Outkast for really changing so much of the game by being as great as they* were. A lot of people try to separate Andre from Big Boi, but I assume a lot of that is age and the fact that a lot of people who like him know him from the last ten years or for Hey Ya. Not so much what most of his core fans would say was his best work (those who have been listening to him for maybe 30 years almost). Yes, sure he has admitted he deals with confidence issues but we also have to accept that he has been saying this since he was younger and in his 20s-30s. That's why he pivoted into other interests after Stankonia such as acting.. fashion.. other genres of music here and there while doing features after SB/TLB dropped. I just think this "greatest rapper of all time" is kind of generational and it's sad to see him getting dragged into discussions at times by people who really don't understand many portions of his career, his decisions (most of which had been spoken of decades ago) and thought process. It's also real weird to come out of the era he came out of and deal with the internet, because he is essentially under a microscope in some way. And a lot of the fascination folks have developed is a bit superficial. I have supported Outkast and each individual member since I was also 17 years old. Same age, so yes, I am older but that's the era I came out of. It was very different even when their last studio album came out. The expectation and pressure and stuff, it's sometimes hard to work through even for the greatest of the bunch. At this point, that's why I love when Big Boi just makes music because he digs it and same for Dre. Andre was just featured on the Everything Everywhere Soundtrack as an instrumentalist and that's a big deal but little people are talking about it. People that are fans are not excited about when he does those things, but we should be happy he's trying and doing his best.
Also Stankonia did not go diamond, please retain factual information, that’s important to note. While Stankonia was a very critically acclaimed album that sold millions, their biggest and most commercially successful album was SB/TLB. When you reach that rare sort of success 10-12 years into your career, you really don’t need to do anything else. But because Andre was so ahead of the time, people who did not get to consciously experience Outkast in their prime or Andre in their prime (which seems everlasting), there’s this desire to keep bringing him into a discussion he hasn’t ever wanted to be placed in. That’s a lot of pressure for someone who already had a full career. He could have went quiet completely after Outkast dropped Stankonia with how big they were. It’s just the way it is.
Super insightful comment and thanks for providing this b/c I am in my late 20s and have noticed the way people who didn’t grow up actually understanding Outkast or André 3000, just very enamored by his talent which is understandable because he’s great. Outkast was great / Big Boi is great.
Thank you for this! I was just gonna post that he did said that he didn't want to be a rapper he his 40s. Besides, for him to come back now (even without his anxieties), it would look ridiculous because he's 47 yrs old!
Andre is the goat period sometimes genius is difficult Andre you are definitely something I think he evolved from just an artist to a man finding his happiness working for the system is not always enjoyable sometimes the industry stunts artists growth
It sad that we never get a solo album from three stack! I would love hear whatever he choose to put out because he have the talent that can transcend rap game like rakim or big daddy kane or notorious big or 2pac or jay-z and even Nas...
Nothing stunted Andre 3000..he is the greatest to ever do it!! I love his music!! Good video tho..I know he is going through something..prayers up..good video ..he is in my top 10
Imo outkast is going into the hall of fame they 5mic album's and imma go out on a lim and say that they are the greatest rap group of all time they ✔️ every box from what every generation perceived as great so for me I've never wanted 3000 solo album but I sure could have went for another outkast album's sn# could you do a stunted growth on juvenile I'd love to hear how you break down his career ✌🏿💚
I know during an interview, he said he hasn't been in a creative/music making mood for a while. But, he would just mess around with it here and there. I'm just praying that love and drive he had for music comes back, very soon.
Can Andre 3000 come back and be one of the top rappers, or is it too late? ruclips.net/user/stuntedgrowth
Absolutely! His verse on Ye “Life of the Party” was fire💯💪🏾✅
I say no cuz he not concerned wit that anymore I think he likes working on his time not a corporate record label would like to get a solo album from him though 😏
Do a Stunned Growth Wale ‼️
I don't know if he can do it or not, but he probably can't, or at least he won't. But in the meantime do your next Stunted Growth on Twista.
Remember, 3000 was on the last A Tribe Called Quest Album in 2016. OutKast can sellout The Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta. Right now!!!!!

I look at Andre the same way ppl look at Haley's comet. It doesn't come around often, but when it does it was amazing to see. And 3 STACKS is the same way. When he's featured on a song, WE ALL LISTEN .
He gets all the sunflowers🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻 all the Roses🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹this Legend will always and forever be one of the coldest of all time, he is in my top 5, and he proved that ATL had something to say!! Love you Andre 3K #andre3000 Outkast 4lifw
He wasn’t technically stunted because OutKast flourished but in a way he was stunted because he could have done so much more by branching out and making his own solo catalogue. You can tell by the way he murders every feature he’s on. It’s like what if Bo Jackson never got injured.
I honestly don’t want another 3000 album. I like his catalogue. Those of us in the south know that 3000 has Goodie Mob and Dugeon family verses that are classics to go along with his OutKast body of work. I think Jay-Z has misconstrued what success is. If Jay -Z actually retired when he said he was . Would you say his growth was stunted also? 3000’s Love Below album was so far ahead of its time it’s scary. And he made majority if not all the beats. I can respect him leaving the game when the passion is no more vs. these dudes just making quick money off these thoughtless raps diminishing their own legacies.
Yea man they've got so many songs to enjoy. Shit , Outkast has more albums than any other rap artists I can think of.
What?... Andre 3000 (formerly known) time stamped a hip hop era with his creative genius....
I'm 43yrs old. I was 15 when SouthernPlayalistic came out. That album and the Kast albums that followed have truly shaped my life and me as a person. In my humble opinion NOTHING about 3000 career is stunted... In my humble opinion he is the greatest lyricist of my hip hop listening lifetime... I'd rather not hear a forced solo album and just enjoy all the bars he has blessed us with. Would I like to get another Kast album or a solo 3stacks project of course I would. But not dissatisfied with what 3k and Big Boi have given us...
Somehow FEAR got to him, but it's strange bc there's STILL a demand to hear his next solo album
I think it was also insecurity as well because the dude was always putting himself down.
@@joshuabryant8504 Right , whatever inner demon he was facing led to him not feeling worthy...I guess that's still qualified as a fear .. He fears not being worthy and puts himself down as a result of something he'd done
He is and has always bn one of the greatest
man this dude was my top 5 hands down !!!!!!!👁👁
Come on man. Andre is top 5 all time. Lyrically almost nobody can touch him, and he's probably the only artist besides Black Thought that when he drops a verse to this day, the entire hip hop community stops to listen. The man is unquestionably one of the GOAT's. Anyone who says otherwise is just mad he's living life on his own terms now. He doesn't owe us anything.
We need Stunted Growth videos on Slim Thug & Saigon
That Love Below is his Solo album 💯💯💯
3000 going to come with one more watch this these Generations need to hear his voice.
Andre was simply afraid to get out into the marketplace. He felt as long as he could come out with the occasional verse, he can't fail.
that dairy analogy was freaking dope lol
What happened to Andre in one word, Erykah Badu.
WE NEED A PETEY PABLO STUNTED GROWTH DIARY OF A SINNER 1ST ENTRY WAS A CLASSIC
At first I was on the side of no solo album= can't be the goat , but just the fact he's so high on every reputable hip hop heads list means he's a goat
If he went full speed as a solo artist between 2005-2009 he would've been what Kendrick is now but 3stackz legend is different and that's ok ✊🏽
One of the greatest EVER!!! Appreciate you putting this out bro ✊🏾
Dude would drop one verse that was better than most rappers albums 😂
Andre 3000 my fav rapper of all time
Thank you for this video great work 👏 can you do kurupt from the dogg pound I know it would be fire 🔥
Said this before but I’m convinced of a few things here.
1. People do not fully understand “stunted” growth.
2. Most do not watch or listen to the videos
3. JC gives it up to the artist EVERYTIME!
It’s not for everyone to agree with because that’s not always the case with myself. I’m fine with the singles and features because honestly a underwhelming solo project would probably be worse than what we get. 3 Stacks has been great for the culture and I’m glad he’s living his felt purpose
This is my favorite rapper of all time and nobody can tell me nothing about em because I witnessed his career before my eyes instead of doin research this again was another crazy that wasn't even worth making he's a legend when you end your career on that note like most can't should tell you somethin but I guess it doesn't
His growth was never stunted he did his thing and he let himself out the game.He didn't let anything bother him as a father n as a man. He's living his life as a human being.
StuntedGrowth has been on 🔥🔥🔥 with all these drops
When a man can't handle fame and power, it will psychologically damage him and I feel that is what happened to Andre 3000..
I always wanted to see him and CeeLo green make an entire album together !! 👁👁
I personally think that including Andre3000 in this video series is the most typical way to bring down the fact that he is and was as great as you say he "could've" been. I like your series but not this one. Its a reach... a looonngg reach...!!!
Time, and the music landscape changing.
Can y'all *IMAGINE IF* , the ever so talented Highly Respected Critically acclaimed Award Winning Bar Spitter named, *ANDRÉ 3STACKS* had the Social Media Presence and Charismatic Personality&Ego as *Sauce Walka* (for example) 🤯🤯🤯🤯🙆♂️🙆♂️🙆♂️🙆♂️ *ANDRÉ* would have quadrupled his Net Worth ANNNNNNND would have probably been held to a waaaay more higher regard than *JAY-Z* in nowadays society 🤞🤞🤞🤞....
This episode is literally the pinnacle of the subject topic 🤞💯 🏁
The all time GOAT!!! Dre changed the way I see, hear, feel and interact with the world and the people in it. The only mcee to ever make me laugh allowed and cry on the same song. I was blessed enough to get to hang with him on 4 occasions and he is as humble and cool as you would imagine him being. The only thing better than the way he raps, is the way he lives!!
Bro IS one of the greatest and that isn’t a debate and he doesn’t need to do anything, and I mean ANYTHING, to prove otherwise. Can’t believe this is even a questionn
Do a Stunned Growth King Los‼️
I fear a Bone Thugs episode would run an hour plus.
Amazing. Please do Kool G Rap!
man, i knew he would come into the picture sooner or later. Andre 3000 is always gonna be a tricky slope to determine if his growth was stunned. he did win multiple Grammys and all. But i understand. he could have been one of the biggest solo artists of all time if he just had taken that plunge into it.
This was just hard to watch knowing he's a legend people think you're suppose to be hot your whole career well guess what...? It just doesn't work like that😑
TBH He’s Just So Great, I’m Fine Wit Him Just Doin Features Forever. He Always Drops A Fye Feat. #OneLove3K
Andre will always the GOAT all time but he will be back and decides drop his solo album at that point, it is no rush
I think you should cover Project Pat on next episode of stunted growth. As he’s Juicy J older brother and an honorary member of Three6 Mafia!
Going 2 jail and music changing is what stunted pats growth. But, at the same time I think he reached his potential as a gangsta rapper from Memphis. His first two official albums are 🔥. Laying the smack down is good 2 but not on the level as the previous 2 and I think he was in jail when that came out. After that it was pretty much downhill as music changed. Also he started messing with different producers which changed his sound more. Project pat is by far my favorite out the hcp and I still bump him to this day.
Top 5 lyracist ever imo. He just needed a solo album or 2 to make it official
My dude I got to correct you on that Stankonia went platinum but speaker box/ love below was there diamond 💎 record
Love Andre 3000...
I mean no disrespect you because I value the efforts you put in but the story of Andre 3000 is much different than what it is sensationalized to be. Andre has been saying he didn't want to be a rapper in his 40's since the late 90's, even before he recognized social anxieties or social pressures. * I am not a good writer and I do apologize for any repetition or era.
I know due to the way a lot of old footage and content have been erased or "lost" in the development of social media, it is hard to show sources as proof but that's simply the truth. So there has always been this desire of his to "step away" a bit. And he did, maybe for many reasons but he had always spoken about age. Long, long before he was even old. And now, there seems to be a narrative that gen-z have kind of crafted around Andre that's not completely correct but I think it's possibly due to not necessarily growing up with Outkast in entirety for some or not being old enough to understand the hip-hop landscape at the time in general.
lot of people who are too young don't understand the musical landscape Outkast came out of. Some of the appreciation he has been shown over the last year or two specifically is very much superficial and lacking nuance. Outkast came out of The Dungeon Family, the whole group were anomalies in terms of talent. Outkast brought something new and different every single album. By the time Andre and Big Boi made their last album, rap was really permeating into mainstream. Reaching that sort of success at that time without even touring for their biggest album was unheard of. I'm not the best at writing but what I'm trying to get across is the 'stunted growth' narrative is not completely correct. I get the sentiment because after many years of teasing a solo body of work, he never really did it. And that's okay, it's time for people to also appreciate him for what he is and where he is. It's not impossible but I think a true fan would really appreciate all he has done over the years instead of try to bring him back into a musical landscape that is 100% different than it was when he was really active.
He has felt that way for 20 years, he said it in a lot of interviews. He also wanted to explore other genres of music. TLB wasn't even a hip-hop album, for example. He didn't want it to be one. Hey Ya also wasn't even supposed to be the first single, and a lot would be different if it wasn't. It also was supposed to have Killa Mike on it..
We have to communally let Andre 3000 be. And as a unit, really respect the duo of Outkast for really changing so much of the game by being as great as they* were. A lot of people try to separate Andre from Big Boi, but I assume a lot of that is age and the fact that a lot of people who like him know him from the last ten years or for Hey Ya. Not so much what most of his core fans would say was his best work (those who have been listening to him for maybe 30 years almost).
Yes, sure he has admitted he deals with confidence issues but we also have to accept that he has been saying this since he was younger and in his 20s-30s. That's why he pivoted into other interests after Stankonia such as acting.. fashion.. other genres of music here and there while doing features after SB/TLB dropped.
I just think this "greatest rapper of all time" is kind of generational and it's sad to see him getting dragged into discussions at times by people who really don't understand many portions of his career, his decisions (most of which had been spoken of decades ago) and thought process. It's also real weird to come out of the era he came out of and deal with the internet, because he is essentially under a microscope in some way. And a lot of the fascination folks have developed is a bit superficial. I have supported Outkast and each individual member since I was also 17 years old. Same age, so yes, I am older but that's the era I came out of. It was very different even when their last studio album came out. The expectation and pressure and stuff, it's sometimes hard to work through even for the greatest of the bunch. At this point, that's why I love when Big Boi just makes music because he digs it and same for Dre.
Andre was just featured on the Everything Everywhere Soundtrack as an instrumentalist and that's a big deal but little people are talking about it. People that are fans are not excited about when he does those things, but we should be happy he's trying and doing his best.
Also Stankonia did not go diamond, please retain factual information, that’s important to note. While Stankonia was a very critically acclaimed album that sold millions, their biggest and most commercially successful album was SB/TLB. When you reach that rare sort of success 10-12 years into your career, you really don’t need to do anything else. But because Andre was so ahead of the time, people who did not get to consciously experience Outkast in their prime or Andre in their prime (which seems everlasting), there’s this desire to keep bringing him into a discussion he hasn’t ever wanted to be placed in. That’s a lot of pressure for someone who already had a full career. He could have went quiet completely after Outkast dropped Stankonia with how big they were. It’s just the way it is.
Super insightful comment and thanks for providing this b/c I am in my late 20s and have noticed the way people who didn’t grow up actually understanding Outkast or André 3000, just very enamored by his talent which is understandable because he’s great. Outkast was great / Big Boi is great.
Thank you for this! I was just gonna post that he did said that he didn't want to be a rapper he his 40s. Besides, for him to come back now (even without his anxieties), it would look ridiculous because he's 47 yrs old!
Andre is the goat period sometimes genius is difficult Andre you are definitely something I think he evolved from just an artist to a man finding his happiness working for the system is not always enjoyable sometimes the industry stunts artists growth
It sad that we never get a solo album from three stack! I would love hear whatever he choose to put out because he have the talent that can transcend rap game like rakim or big daddy kane or notorious big or 2pac or jay-z and even Nas...
He did his thing
he was absolutely amazing in Aquemini
such a great video
Nothing stunted Andre 3000..he is the greatest to ever do it!! I love his music!! Good video tho..I know he is going through something..prayers up..good video ..he is in my top 10
Clicked so fast!!! 🤙🏾💯
Imo outkast is going into the hall of fame they 5mic album's and imma go out on a lim and say that they are the greatest rap group of all time they ✔️ every box from what every generation perceived as great so for me I've never wanted 3000 solo album but I sure could have went for another outkast album's sn# could you do a stunted growth on juvenile I'd love to hear how you break down his career ✌🏿💚
This is the best one by far, not discounting all the others you’ve done but this one was all on point
I know during an interview, he said he hasn't been in a creative/music making mood for a while. But, he would just mess around with it here and there. I'm just praying that love and drive he had for music comes back, very soon.
I love at 8:47... you used a picture from his days with Tretorn shoes. Real ones (sneaker people) know.
Stankonia did not go Diamond, (selling 10+ million domestically)....it was Speakerboxxx/The Love Below.
Right. Made a mistake. Good catch Thanks!
That verse on “Sixteen” is arguably the greatest verse ever written.
Forever the 🐐 regardless
Can you do a Sean price ?
