André 3000 surprises fans with a new instrumental project titled 7 Piano Sketches, consisting of seven piano-centered tracks. Introduced by an unnamed narrator, it includes vocal effects like a laugh track. Initially considered as The Best Worst Rap Album in History, André describes it as an emotionally freeing experience. The project began nearly a decade ago, recorded in a sparse Texan house. André strategically released it late at night, coinciding with the Met Gala, where he showcased a unique Burberry outfit inspired by piano, aligning with the album's theme.
The original title for it was The Best Worst Rap Album in History, and it's jokingly the worst rap album because there are no lyrics at all.
Having lived with the recordings for a time, André was drawn to the idea of creating more and sharing them in the Spring, a time of year that promises renewal.
