At the Camp Flog Gnaw festival, Kendrick Lamar and Baby Keem performed 'The Hillbillies' for the first time with Tyler, the Creator. Andre 3000 is set to release 'New Blue Sun,' his first album in 17 years, featuring instrumental compositions. The album is influenced by real instruments and calmer music, with song titles like 'Ninety Three ‘Til Infinity And Beyoncé' and 'Ants To You, Gods To Who ?'. Tyler, the Creator and Frank Ocean listened to the album, describing it as 'chasing a butterfly through a garden.' Andre 3000 expressed respect for them as musicians. The album is inspired by Laraaji, Brian Eno, Alice Coltrane, Steve Reich, Pharoah Sanders, and an ayahuasca trip where Andre turned into a panther. The album cover art was also revealed, and Andre 3000 encouraged younger artists to 'keep pushing.'

Interesting trend. A move toward real instruments and away from electronic or samples. Also, calmer music. Andre 3000's first album in over a decade is just comprised of flutes with no lyrics. Thomas Bangalter of Daft Punk released an orchestral album earlier this year https://t.co/EuppZ9dtma
