OutKast reunion is definitely on the works, the crew announced that they will reunite this weekend and perform onstage at Coachella, via their newly created Twitter account. OutKast took an 8 year break from the music industry, which halted their performance on stage and recording activities. It will also be the 20th Anniversary of the hip hop duo.
The comeback of OutKast duo, Big Boi and Andre 3000, has been reported to be for stage performances only, and no recording albums were planned. The famous Atlanta duo will be on tour and information that they will be performing some of their notable songs.
The duo was first known to be as Two Shades Deep before it was changed to their more popular name, OutKast. They are known to have been performing mixed genre of music with some Dirty South, funk, soul, and definitely rap. Some of their most popular songs are "Player's Ball", "Roses", "Hey Ya", and "The Way You Move".
Both, Andre 3000 and Big Boi pursued solo careers during their 8 year break. OutKast reunion just this year will be a celebration of their 20th Anniversary in the music industry, and they will be appearing on more than 40 festivals in 2014, including Counterpoint, OVO, Big Guava, Hangout Festival, and Governor's Ball. The performances will be done worldwide, starting off at the Coachella Festival this coming April 2014.
The reunited OutKast members will not be recording an album for now, but Big Boi already released some of his solo records in 2010, and was reported to be busy working on a new solo album. Big Boi also said in an interview, "We're just doing the tour only. Just for the fans. That's all it is, a tour, I got a solo record I'm working on, but this is the OutKast 20th-year anniversary - just a way for us to celebrate with our fans, but no album in the works".
