Both Big Boi and Andre confirmed that after their respective solo releases this year, OutKast will put out an album for 2009. People have assumed that the two were in bad terms or separating, but far from it, Big Boi says "Outkast are stronger than ever."

"We got a few songs we already picked out," Big explained. "We pick the beats first. I drop my [solo album] in July, Dre puts his out [later this year], and we drop that OutKast record at the top of [next] year."

Andre confirmed the project: 

"We don't have a date. We just know we have commitments and [we] we just try to get in there and do it.
