After early reports it appears OutKast will indeed grace the stage at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival this spring. In an interview with Stereo Gum, focusing on Future’s rise to stardom, Organized Noize member Rico Wade (who is Future’s older cousin) confirms Big Boi and André 3000 are scheduled to perform together.

“Rico explains, eager to shed light on his own under-recognized legacy. As we bide our time in the lobby, he affably spills the beans about unreleased Andre 3000 solo songs from a decade ago and his hopes to score Future a cameo during OutKast’s reunion sets at Coachella.”

The Grammy Award-winning Atlanta duo have been on hiatus since 2007. Billboard previously reported late last year that OutKast were in negotiations to attend the yearly festival, starting as the beginning of a reunion run wiht additional festival dates later this year. Along with confirming their reunion, Wade revealed André 3000 and Future have collaborated on a song titled “Benz Bi**h,” set to appear on Future’s oft-delayed Honest sophomore album.

“Eventually he pulls out his iPhone and plays me a Future/Andre collaboration he produced called “Benz Bitch” that’s earmarked for Honest. It’s yet another side of Future and one rarely heard: brainy, libidinous space-age funk mined from Stankonia’s dankest caverns, an homage to his Dungeon Family roots.”

The 2014 Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival kicks off on April 11 in Indio, California. The official lineup will be announced in the next couple of weeks.
