I just read an interview with Outkast in the latest Fader magazine. It was kinda vague, but what I took away is that this will be the last outkast album. As most fans know their next cd will be a double cd, and Big Boi and Andre will have their own cd. Well Andre was talking about how him and Big Boi would always bump heads musically and alot of the songs would end up with him comprimising the songs integrity. Neither one came out and said that Outkast is done but alot of the things they said in the article lead me to believe that, they even pointed out how when they recorded Stankonia, they never recorded together sometimes they wouldn't see each other for weeks while recording. I know this is a common practice when it comes to recording but you would think that these cats would try to be around each other while recording their tracks just to vibe off of each other. Andre even made a comment about how he didn't like their clothing line and how he wouldn't wear any of it. The way the article read made it seem like both of these cats are ready to move on and do something different, I could be wrong, we all know how some magazines take things and twist them. I would hate to see them break up, but if that meant that Andre would stretch out and explore more adventurous stlyes I think it would be a blessing. Oh yeah he also said that he's singing on 90% of his disc and doing very little rapping. I can't wait for this to drop!

here's a link to the coverBastards won't let you see the article.

with so many other groups cloning their style now, it is time for them to go after creating a monster.

Probably...but it was a good 10 year run, so I'm not mad at all.
