The LOX Want André 3000 to Rap Again: ‘You’re One of the Greatest Ever’

“Rap about his travels. He’s one of the greatest to ever do it. He could’ve rapped over the flute beats. Straight up. I think rapping about what is he gonna rap about is a good point of view. It gives different people different perspectives.”

The LOX, who are all in their forties like 3000, have continued performing since their inception in 1994, around the same time that Three Stacks joined Big Boi to introduce Outkast. Whereas the group has taken part in Hip Hop 50 celebrations this year, 3000 recently told CBS Mornings that he had no interest in returning to the stage.

“I don’t necessarily like looking back,” he told CBS Mornings’ Anthony Mason. “And I wouldn’t wanna be in a place where I’m doing it on some, just because I’m trying to meet an expectation. I didn’t get into Outkast for that. We were just kids, like, trying to see how far we could take it.”
