Waithe was talking about how as an artist, âDifferent things inspire you,â and the producer and actress brought up LLâs foray into acting. âSometimes some things are more fascinating to an artist,â she said before using Andreâs flute album as an example. âEven Andre 3000. Do we want him to make a rap album? Sure. But heâs like, âIâm on this flute game, yâall. This is my jam right now, Iâm super into this.’â

The man they call Big Elly wasnât having it, countering, âI need him to spit, though,â before going on a mini-rant. âI need him to spit. Flutes? Man, come on, bro,â he said before acknowledging that âthe comments are gonna be crazy.â LL continued his point by giving Andre his flowers before declaring himself anti-flute. âHeâs amazing, all right? His bars is all the way up. Iâm very clear. Not the flute, B. Not the flute. Donât do the flute.â
This made Lena fight enthusiastically for 3 Stacksâ latest work. âI liked the album. Itâs very calming, Iâm sipping tea,â she said, before Big Elly interrupted her and fired back. âLetâs not lie to ourselves: I donât wanna hear him do the flute,â said LL, who then asked the room, âYou wanna hear me do a violin? You might not wanna hear me do shâ, but do you wanna hear me do a violin?â
LL isnât alone. Co-host Maverick Carter agreed, saying, âI wanna hear him spit too.â Fans have been clamoring for an Andre 3000 solo rap album for years, and it seems like the Queens legend has been waiting on one as well.
âI want him to get with Big Boi. I want them to make an Outkast [album]. Or do a solo album,â LL Cool J said. âEvery time he does fâing one verse, itâs enough material for one album. Heâs so gifted. So itâs like, come on, B, not the flute. We not gonna lie. ⌠Donât gas ⌠that man needs to know the truth. He needs to know the truth.â
