While we sit patiently waiting for an Outkast reunion that may or may not take place, life goes on and other music is made.
That being said, do you recall when Andre 3000 posed for those Dungeon Family GQ photos shirtless with that mask on?

The reason behind Dre’s get up apparently had to do with the promo for the Gorillaz single he was working on.
Andre Benjamin dropped a few bars for Gorillaz mastermind Damon Albarn alongside James Murphy last September in London and “DoYaThing” was born.
The original track, created for Converse?s Three Artists, One Song series, features Dre’s hypnotic twang delivering a euphoric, minute-long freestyle as he rhymes sploooshy sploosh with blooopdie bloop kinda like he did on Jeezy’s “I do” with whoopty whoop and bleepty bleep.
The official video for the song was released a few days ago and Dre appears in video but claymation form … remember I told y’all he says he won’t appear in any music video unless it’s with Big Boi. CLICK HERE to revisit that post.
Anywhoo… check out the video for “DoYaThang” PLUS listen/download the extended 13 minute version of the song (that includes even more of Dre) below…
Cute video… right?
Well the ?DoYaThing? saga continues with an extra long twist. Check out the? full 13 minute extended version below, featuring an extra verse from 3 Stacks that includes a lengthy audio freakout where Dre repeatedly shouts ?I?m the shit!? before the track winds down into an weird outro.
