Episode 46: Reflections: André3000 Is The Moment
If the ‘flute’ album is not on your radar, I’m throwing a bit of shade in your direction. Maybe you’re new to the legend. Maybe you live under a rock with no access to wifi. If that’s the case, I apologize. Anyway… André Lauren Benjamin. Rapper, singer, musician, songwriter, record producer, and actor. A member of the Dungeon Family. Superstar. AT-alien. 1/2 of one of the greatest rap duos in history… Outkast. André Three Staks. Beautiful Black Renaissance Man.
Listen to my reflective conversation with Kristin Robinson @kris.in.transit, a fellow multi-hyphenate Creative and fan of André3000.
