We Decode André 3000's Track List on 'New Blue Sun'

Okay, crack buka sing dingin lan nyepet ing kap pikiran - sideways - amarga kita bakal dumunung headfirst ing André 3000's funhouse saka tracklist kanggo "New Blue Sun." It's more twisted than a bag of pretzels and twice as salty. Ready? Set? Here we go!

Cue saka vinyl scratch ing nyata kita. karo "I Swear, I Really Wanted to Make a 'Rap' Album but This Is Literally the Way the Wind Blew Me," André punika ora mung nglumpukake tembok keempat - dheweke ngembangake tembok keempat mung kanggo nglumpukake iku, uga. Iki minangka wong cuaca nyebat kesempatan dhuwur kanggo hip-hop karo mandi disebat saka ... apa wae iki.André mung nguripake, nguripake rap-beats menyang angin, lan ngrekam suara sing padha nggunakake nalika padha ngluwi. Bye-bye, beats!

Tiptoeing ing saapbox karo "This Time The Slang Word P(*)ssy Rolls Off the Tongue With Far Better Ease Than the Proper Word Vagina. Do You Agree?"—kanggo, judul iku pretsel linguistik sing diwenehi ing saus panas. Ngobrol babagan ngluwihi es karo slalgehammer! Judul iki minangka salah siji teman sing ngandika apa sing kabeh ngendi nanging banget sopan kanggo ngandika. It's André turning the mic to us for a round of socially-charged Wheel of Fortune—where vowels cost more than your comfort zone.

Ingkang menyang "That Night in Hawaii When I Turned Into a Panther and Started Making These Low Register Purring Tones That I Couldn’t Control … Sh¥t Was Wild," titil cukup gedhe kanggo dadi Tweet kanthi dhewe. iku setengah dokumenter alam, setengah pengalaman-out-of-body. Salah iki ngetokake aku ngetokake yen gambar-gambar keamanan ing rumah André ndadekake dheweke nyebat ing ruang tamu karo Nat Geo nyatakake play-by-play.

Kritik karo "BuyPoloDisorder’s Daughter Wears A 3000™ Button Down Embroidered," judul track sing sing sing-man-handedly nyumbangake taman tema preppy ing alam semesta alternatif. André's mixing family drama karo terapi ritel. Manawa Disorder iki, lan bisa kita njaluk undhang kanggo Thanksgiving dysfunctional?

Next, "Ninety Three ‘Til Infinity and Beyoncé," mixing nostalgia with modern pop culture, this title is like your uncle trying to be cool at a family reunion. "Remember the good old days of '93? Beyoncé does. Maybe."

Tahan ing halo sampeyan kanggo "Ghandi, Dalai Lama, Lord & Savior J.C. / Bundy, Jeffrey Dahmer, lan John Wayne Gacy," karena André's ana ing iki nggawe chart kursi kanggo pesta makan saka langit utawa neraka (kanggantung ing setengah sampeyan makan karo).

Dan mung nalika sampeyan ngira ora bisa luwih aneh, kita served "Ants to You, Gods to Who?" kang ana André googling "relative size of universal objects" nalika procrastinating ing esai eksistencialist. It's a little antha wearing a toga, ngandhut ing bintang-bintang lan ngandhutake, "Do I even lift, cosmos?"

Sekali, "Dreams Once Buried Beneath the Dungeon Floor Slowly Sprout Into Undying Gardens," mung njaluk minangka sekuel kanggo "The Secret Garden" yen iku ditulis dening Edgar Allan Poe ing dinten optimistic. It's André, trawling subconscious dungeons kanggo mimpi-mimpi pesky sing teka.

Oke, ana kita duwe iku—sampun-bending liwat taman tematik sing iku "New Blue Sun." Sampun kita nampa pungkasan joyride kita, kita ora bisa nggawé takeaway: André 3000 nggawé apa sing dheweke mau, judul dadi kutha, lan kita kabeh terlalu curious kanggo ngundhuh ngendaki. Apa sing ana kanggo nggunakake iku buckle-up, hit play, lan ndeleng yen musik iku setengah-setengah luwih lezat minangka judul-titik iki. Sampeyan, mbukak tangan lan kaki ing kendaraan ing kabeh wektu-André iku diwenehi roda, lan Lord mung ngerti ngendi kita diarani!
