Listen: Andre 3000's Amazing Year in Guest Verses
It's been nine years since we got a whole record worth of André 3000, with 2003's OutKast double album Speakerboxxx/The Love Below. Three Stacks has intermittently interrupted his reclusiveness to hop onto other rappers' tracks since then, but never so much as in the last year. Beginning with Beyonce's 4 at the end of June 2011 and wrapping with this summer's releases from Frank Ocean and Rick Ross, André has accumulated a serious, wacky and jaw-dropping resumé of flows in the past year. Listen to our Spotify playlist while reading along with our rundown below.
