Breh was diagnosed with severe social anxiety

It ain't easy to just drop music like that :manny:

Back in the dungeon family days, he had a team behind him to push him but once they reached their peak popularity, it was just too much

I'm just glad we got what we got out him while we did. Imagine if he never rapped at all

Just kept it to himself cause of nerves. Anxiety aint no joke. So to have accomplished what he has despite it, says a lot
He has social anxiety and is worried about how ppl receive him??? Well then yeah, best bet is to make a move that will anger and alienate everyone who liked you to begin with lol.

If you accept that 3 Stacks is in a new phase of his career and isn't interested in rapping (and clearly HASN'T been in 20 years) then this is actually an exciting development. I love Jazz and World Music and listening to his interview on NPR it seems like this is going to be a Free Jazz album with elements of world music. Andre is a very creative individual and he said he's spent years with a flute Master learning and playing different types of flute and flute music. He's taking this seriously and i'm proud that dude is 48 years old and at the very least putting his heart into SOME form of musical expression.

Everybody can't be Nas, who lives and breathes bars within the core of his soul. Andre has said he has different goals and seeks different modes of expression. He didn't even want to rap at first, he wanted to go to Art school and become a painter. He doesn't enjoy freestyling. He has anxiety performing. He gets bored doing his old songs. Andre been telling us without outright telling us that rap is a hobby he just so happened to be supremely gifted in, but he doesn't want it to define him.
Then he should stay the fukk out of my rap newsfeed.
