The year is 2023 and André 3000 has just released his first solo album, New Blue Sun. Unfortunately, at least to those who had prior expectations, there is no rapping to be heard. Or singing. In fact, there’s no vocals at all. The entire project is centered around woodwind instruments.
No, seriously.
“I’ve been interested in winds for a long time, so it was just a natural progression for me to go into flutes,” André says during a sit-down with NPR. “I just like messing with instruments and I gravitated mostly toward wind.”
