text: I got to listen to the new Outkast record for Idlewild with some other interweb people yesterday at Zomba/Jive. It was a bit long and the second half dragged a bit, but maybe I need to see the movie. Anyways, one of the big things a lot of talked about was how this would be the last Outkast album. Dre flat out denies a breakup, but in my mind it's felt like they've been two solo artists that have unofficially been broken up for a while now...
  "Yesterday I got a phone call from Big Boi and he said that on some hip-hop Web sites that the headlines were reading something to the effect of, 'It's Official: Outkast Is Broken Up,' or something like that," Andre said. "And man, we're looking at it like, where is this sh-- coming from? I was on 'TRL' today to release a new video, and I meant to say something [about the situation] on the air. But the way they had the questions set up, I didn't have a chance to do it...
  N---as hit me in the street like, 'Yeah man, I heard the bad news. Sorry to hear about that,' " Andre continued. "I'm like 'Man, what are you talking about?' Everything is still tight, most definitely." [MTV]
