Jive Says No to an Outkast Reunion

Jive Says No to an Outkast Reunion

An Out­kast reunion has been in the talks for some time now, but Jive Records exec­u­tives are doing every­thing in their power to make sure it doesn’t hap­pen. The reunion was sup­posed to take place in Big Boi’s upcom­ing album, “Sir Lus­cious Left Foot: The Son of Chico Dusty” but Jive won’t allow Andre Ben­jamin to reunite with his ex-bandmate.

He says “Jive is try­ing to block Dre from being on my record. We can’t be on songs together now.”

Big Boi moved to Def Jam from Jive Records after the label told Big that they were stumped on how to pro­mote his new album.

Jive Records told me my album is a piece of art, and they didn’t know what to do with it,” Big Boi told GQ in a recent interview.
