Overview

• André 3000 made a dramatic return to the Met Gala after 17 years, wearing a custom Burberry x Benji Bixby jumpsuit and carrying a grand piano on his back.
• On his way to the event, he released a surprise EP, '7 Piano Sketches,' comprised of seven improvisational solo-piano tracks with voice-note introductions.
• The tracks were recorded over a decade ago, with many originating as iPhone recordings shared with friends and family, now curated into a cohesive project.
• The jumpsuit and piano stunt were created in collaboration with stylist Law Roach and Burberry's Daniel Lee, blending André's fashion legacy with Burberry's heritage.
• This marks André's first music release since his 2023 album 'New Blue Sun,' continuing his exploration of experimental, non-rap compositions.
