(GEMS RADIO)—OutKast have another accolade in the bag. André 3000’s “Hey Ya!” reached 10 million units sold. This is the first for the hip hop duo. The song is off of 2003’s Speakerboxx/The Love Below. The album was also certified diamond about 15 months after its release.

With all good news, André 3000 also mentioned that the duo will not be getting back together anytime soon.

He told Rolling Stone Magazine the following:

“I’ll say maybe 10, 15 years ago, in my mind, I thought an OutKast album would happen,” he said. “I don’t know the future, but I can say that we’re further away from it than we’ve ever been. I think it’s a chemistry thing. We have to be wanting to do it. It’s hard for me to make a rap, period, you know? And sometimes I’m in the belief of ‘Let things be.’

“It was a great time in life, and our chemistry was at a certain place that was undeniable. And I think the audience sometimes believes that something has to last forever, and I don’t think that. Any kind of art form, I think that’s probably the opposite. It probably should not last forever. It’s not like a product. In the end, we did give a product, but what made that product was a certain time in both of our lives.”
