The Fader x Andre 3000 [INTERVIEW]



The Fader gets Andre 3 Stacks on the line fresh off his “DoYaThing” collaboration with Converse, the Gorillaz and James Murphy to speak on his collaborations, almost turning 40, the information era, OutKast, Rap’s next generation, and an upcoming solo project.


FADER: A music video used to be such an event. Is it also about taking some of that excitement back?

Andre: Yeah, maybe. I don’t know. Things have changed now. There’s so much content. People record everything. People will record [themselves] sitting on the toilet seat just talking. I don’t know what’s an event anymore. The only thing I know how to do is go with what I know, and I just feel like—it just didn’t seem like a right time to do it. For me to jump in videos, if I wasn’t sure I was prepared to back it up. I always felt like, if I’m going to jump in the video, there’s going to be an album coming.
