"As of now, there are no plans for another OutKast album. I’m planning to do a solo project, hopefully it’ll come out this year. As far as OutKast, I really don’t know if or when that will happen."

"OutKast are a massive, massive influence– one of the biggest I have. I think they’re the best producer/rap outfit ever. Their attitude to production is so free. When they’re making something, it seems like whatever works for the vocal is justifiable. There’s a track called ‘Royal Flush’ where André [3000] does this verse. He just cleans up at the end of it!"
