Andre 3000’s solo LP has been in talks since 2012, but while speaking with BET President Stephen Hill on Friday, the ATLien says we may finally see it early next year. Is that The Truth?
The BET Awards nominations were announced earlier this week and not everyone was too pleased.

The album’s success feels less like a temporary trend and more like proof that strong songwriting and authentic artistic expression can remain relevant across generations. It is interesting to see how numbers can tell part of a story, whether we are looking at album sales or using a proportion calculator to understand relationships between different figures.
