@BigAngBlack @blackmastodon @BlackMastodon This is like Best New Artist nominee, and you look at his or her Wikipedia, and it's their 7th album.
I will bet my left thumb that Andre has done songs, maybe even EPs, with little to no contribution from Big Boi. And vice versa.
OTOH, new music is always welcome.

He's learned so much production over the years, he's made beats and done verses with other artists for awhile even before this new exploration started

No cuts from the album but there is some flute playing to get an idea what he's been into

Maybe that's what 3stacks needs to do, start scoring movies!

That Idlewild track is crazy and ppl slept on it mainly because it was a "soundtrack"
