In addition to the album, Mike also recently confirmed that he’s got another song with Andre 3000 in the vault. On The Breakfast Club, he explained that he’s saving it for another album, next year. Mike says Andre’s verse clocks in at seven minutes. “There is another Killer Mike and Dre feature, and all we gotta do is make this album go Number 1 and make the guys from the label really, really happy and I’ll be right back next year,” he said. “He [Andre 3000] always raps longer. When you handsome, all the girls like you, you get to rap longer… It’s a record that women gon’ like. And players. If you’re a player, you gon’ love it too.”
Fans have been holding out hope for new music from Andre 3000 for years. One avenue it’s been rumored to arrive in is by way of a reunion with Big Boi. However, Outkast’s longtime collaborator, Sleepy Brown, shot down that idea during a recent interview with TMZ.
