    I saw 3000 in a Whole Foods in Atlanta. He was signing a kid’s sweatshirt when I walked into the isle. I already knew how he felt about being in public. He looked at me… and I nodded and didn’t say a word. The look of relief on his face as he walked away was 100% worth not getting a selfie.

      Andre has rap lyrics available just can't put it into words. His expression is a happy medium. Hence the flute. Just like what Nas said about how he preconceived what others would think about what he says rather than just try. Could it be lack of words or lazy efforts.😢

    I have definitely seen Andre 3k in the most random spots in Philly for a stretch, with his flute. This was within the last 3yrs. People would walk by, double take and immediately hop on their phones to call others to let friends know. Small crowds would gather around, but in Philly, strangers respect space so no one would invade his space without being mindful. One time I seen him and he rocked out with a vocalist who had been walking by, a complete stranger who started freestylin over his flute. She was beautiful, had an amazing voice, and they vibed for about 10 mins. Seen him another time just out reading a book in a downtown park. Not at all trying to bring attention to himself, and again Philly did not bother him. He is forever mysterious, unassuming, and definitely an authentic creative

    He's really like someone who has gotten to a point in his life where he's at peace with the world. His motivations aren't commercially driven, nor does he feel the pressure to keep doing things to desperately stay culturally relevant. He's making art on his own terms and does so the for the sheer joy of it, and sharing that joy with others. He is levitating with the love for creation in his heart and a smile on his face, and I nothing but my deepest respect for him. My dude has found himself.

But Andre made it feel like he was just any guy, like almost excited at the prospect of playing for someone. While other artists charge 10, 50, 100k for a show. Makes me think of the times music was just small gathering around a single instrument, before is was made into a business. When artist were still reliable. Gotta love 3stacks

    André 3000 seems happy, peaceful, balanced and healthy. He's like a ray of sunshine. I'm happy to see/hear him play a new genre of music that HE genuinely is excited to explore. I appreciated his candor about fame. Wishing him all the best. Can't wait to hear his new music 🎶

    This whole interview was a delight and has given me an even deeper respect for one of my favorite rappers of all time. I love how Andre cares so much more about his art than just making a "rap" album for the sake of it. Very intelligent artist & he seems like a kindhearted person too.

    • @PaulPawlPall
      @PaulPawlPall 5 місяців тому +10

      Yeah, it’s wild seeing comments here thinking this interview comes across as “sad” or “confusing.” Dude has reached that place in life where one has a really healthy sense of themselves and what works for them to keep learning and living and staying mentally grounded. He knows who he is and what it takes to grow as an emotionally healthy person. I also don’t think many people really understand how much of an intense headfuck fame would be, being in the public eye to that of extent. Andre seems like a very grounded and secure individual, and to find that when millions of people know who you are is extremely impressive and encouraging.

    • @Missjunebugfreak
      @Missjunebugfreak 5 місяців тому +8

      @@PaulPawlPall I totally agree. It's weird seeing anyone call this interview sad when if anything it had me smiling through most of it. Andre seems to be at a more contented place in his life where he doesn't desire to make music for the sake of having "hits" or being cool. He just wants to express himself artistically with as much authenticity as he can. That to me is a sign of a person who knows himself and has integrity.

      Well said!!!
      I too, feel Andre is giving us the space to appreciate the "chill", "serene", and "simple" everyday life and be "OK" with it!!! I love luxury items and outings like the next person, but in honesty, true gratification and joy comes, when you are in the peace and quiet by yourself; many times, with nothing but a great scenery, driving in your car, or in the quiet of appreciating your life and the blessings bestowed upon you...
      Andre 300 is giving the world a canvas to sit down and welcome peace....
      Beautiful project!!!!👑🎼👑🎼✊🏽
