André 3000 is back - with two personal tracks

Revealing the tracks via his Instagram page, the artist stated that both tracks are in memory of his parents.

“Happy Mother’s Day. I’m sure all the cards, dinners, flowers and last minute gifts are appreciated but I’ve learned the best gift a parent could get is to simply know their child is ok.”

Don't we love a star who makes touching tributes to their parents? Joining Instagram for the first time, André 3000 chose to alert fans about his two new tracks - 'Me&My' and 'Look Ma No Hands' - via some personal insights and memories he has of his mother and father. The posts were uploaded on 13th of May, Mother's Day in the US.

Both tracks are currently available via his Soundcloud and are linked below. 'Me&My' is an emotional piece of music, a piano ballad written in memory of both André's parents who are now deceased. Then coming in at seventeen minutes, 'Look Ma No Hands' is composed of a jazzy bass clarinet melody.

Melding personal loss into his music, these tracks are worth your time today - and maybe send a message to your own parents too.
