Anyone giving this a good review is full of shit, I love meditation music, love weird shit but this is just trash. The man can NOT play the flute in any way shape or form. There's much better music(not that this trash is music) out there if you mother fuckers need to zone out or get deep, Anyone making up think pieces over this trash is a hipster dumb ass.

The best part is that people are going to lie to themselves and others and call this genius just because it's Andre.

a lot of yall still sounding surprised as if the man didn't clearly state what the album was gonna be lol. Dude said he's exploring notes with an instrument he never used/played before. Expecting composed music or a well thought out piece shouldn't be on anyone's mind. It's exactly what it sounds like, him playing around with sound and experimenting with a new instrument and whatever it comes out to be is what it is. It's not something that I'll listen to but I respect it because at the end of the day it's "art". No different from an artist in front of a canvas with no clue what he's going to paint, but starts painting anyway. The process and even the finished product might be considered ugly, but to others it's a masterpiece. Look at half the paintings worth millions that look like shit lol, but you always hear people speaking about the possible thought process behind those paintings, the possible moods, the feeling that derives from them. He's making art and he was clear about what it was going to be if people checked out his interviews prior.

all the shit that has happened the last 3 years and him travelling around the world and his has nothing to talk about?
nas 50 and he just dropped 3 albums
also outkast were rappin about real stuff
they wasnt on some ingorant shit
so he can easy come out wtih a dope album
Also for him, it probably takes thought and effort to put ideas and subject matter together for an album that he just ain’t willing to do.

For him, he doesn’t need the money so the only other motivation for him would be willingness and time. To put it in perspective, it would be like us going back to work fast food again like we did when we were young. We don’t need the money so why are we doing it?

I started playing the tenor sax in Jr High. I went to Locke High School in LA which was the baddest high school band in the land. I was first tenor. Then, I picked up classical flute in college. Then I picked up the bass guitar later on.

I said that to say... His flute playing is trash. To Hell with the nostalgia crap. It kind of sounds like he was experimenting with "Eastern Indians sounds etc... John Coltrane did something like this as well later on.

Now, I know that I can be a musical snob because I play, but I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt still. The flute is an instrument that can be full of expression. It was one the first instruments man ever played. (The drum is probably first, then the flute, blowing through reeds etc...)

When I think of flute players, I think of the diversity of the music and even the players.
If you're going to play it; Then Play It, Homie... Damn.




In his interview he stated he was a baby at this and that is why he put out the album. He wanted to show his growth as he progressed to becoming better.

He stated he was not the best player yet.

This is why many can’t ever make money. My background is marketing and this is a common theme.

People think that you have to be “Great or the best” to make money. Andre and many other prove over and over again that you don’t have to be great or the best to make money.

Your potential audience hardly ever requires greatness or perfection.

Right and because he is one of my favorite artists of all times, I bought it just off the strength of that. Probably won't even listen to it, but I like to support people I fuck with.
