CNN —Some fans may not be happy with Andre 3000 for releasing a record that isn’t a rap song, but give the man some credit.
The artist, who has been beloved as both a solo act and part of the hip-hop duo Outkast, has broken a Billboard record for the longest song to ever crack the Billboard Hot 100.
90 and “becomes the longest-running song ever to have hit the chart, surpassing Tool’s ‘Fear Inoculum,’ at 10:21 in length,” according to Billboard.
Andre 3000, now 48, has suggested that he may have aged out of the hip-hop game.
Much of his audience has pushed back on that, while embracing the new music.
