André 3000 heeft goedkeuring gekregen van Jay-Z en Beyonce voor een track op zijn nieuwe album.
Vrijdag dropt Dré zijn eerste album ‘New Blue Sun’. Het is 17 jaar geleden dat hij voor het laatst te horen was met Outkast. In gesprek met NPR vertelt de Outkast legende over track 5, ‘Ninety Three ‘Til Infinity And Beyoncé’.
“So No. 5 is called ‘Ninety Three ‘Til Infinity And Beyoncé.’ That was more when I was a youngster – Souls of Mischief was one of my favorite groups and ’93 ’til Infinity,’ everybody remembers that song,” zegt Andre. “So it was kind of like a fun nod and you know, Buzz Lightyear from Toy Story, he always say, ‘To infinity and beyond!’ You know? So, it was kind of like, ‘Ninety Three ‘Til Infinity And Beyoncé. So it was kind of just this fun thing.”
“Thank you Beyonce for letting me use the name!” zegt hij. “I actually had to clear it. I had to call. And thanks Jay! I text him, I was like, ‘Hey man, can you ask Beyoncé? I know I got this clearance thing coming through for this song.’ And I explained to him how I used it. And I’m just happy they let me use it so thank y’all. I really appreciate that.”
