Hit It, Quit It, Ragtop

More on that Outkast HBO movie we enlightened you on long ago: It's got a working title of "Speakerboxx" (wonder where that came from?) Big Boi's in a love triangle and has to choose between being a businessman and his family, and Andre 3000 is involved in more of a tragic love story.

The director confirmed that the duo had worked on new musical material for the film: "There are some new tracks and OutKast songs I think should have been released as singles." Macy Gray is in the movie as "a jaded singer" and Patti LaBelle will also have a role. A soundtrack album from the film has been rumoured ahead of more new OutKast material later due out this year.
