There's been plenty of chat about what flamboyant fellow André 3000's new album doesn't sound like, with some fans having little tantrums that it's not the grand rap return they dreamed of. But you know what? The album that New Blue Sun *is* is right up our ambient alley, and we're well and truly here for this slow psychedelic goodness. The title of the opening track of this 87-minute opus says it all, really: "I Swear, I Really Wanted to Make a 'Rap' Album but This Is Literally the Way the Wind Blew Me This Time". If spiritual jazz, devotional music, new-age ruminations, and super-chill-vibez are your vibez, this is 100% going to be your triple-album of the year. - Flying Out


"New Blue Sun represents a continuation of adventure and discovery for me. Even inherent in the meaning of my name André 3000, there is a wonder or looking forward to the new or what is next. This discovery has happened many times in my life and career and it’s very exciting to witness. I say 'witness' because I am also watching it happen along with you all and I never really know what will come or how I will respond or interpret the inspiration. We all have aspirations, ideas or plans but isn’t it the most awesome when life surprises us in a way that becomes greater than anything we could have imagined? New Blue Sun and the process in which it was recorded is that discovery and witnessing being played out in real time, alive, breathing, and improvised. It’s much more than 'Andre’s flute album'. Ha."André 3000
