Andre 3000 is working on a new album, according to Chris Rock

Comedian says 3 Stacks is 'hard at work'

Bar a semi-reluctant Outkast tour and several guest spots, we haven’t had a proper release from Andre 3000 for some time now.

This could be set to change though, with Chris Rock tweeting last night: “Me , Dave , D-nice , jack white and jarobi hard at work on the new Andre 3000 album” (sic).

It could be a joke, what with him being a comedian and all, but it wouldn’t be that random for Rock to be in the studio, having previously contributed that infamous ‘Yeezy taught me’ skit on Kanye West’s My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy album.

The hip hop community is craving a new album from 3 Stacks perhaps even more than one from Frank Ocean, and the signs are good given he’s been musically active lately, appearing on Kanye’s track '30 Hours’ and Erykah Badu’s ‘Hello’.

The group pictured in the Instagram post had gathered beforehand for a Phife Dawg tribute.

Here’s a couple more pictures Jacobi White posted of them hanging out in the studio.
