- André Benjamin (Clarence)
André Benjamin is best known for his work as half of the world-renowned, pioneering, Grammy Award-winning duo, OutKast. Their album "Speakerboxxx/The Love Below" sold over ten million copies, propelled by Benjamin's number one single, "Hey Ya!" For their distinguished body of work spanning over a decade, OutKast has received multiple Grammy Awards, including Album of the Year for "Speakerboxxx/The Love Below" in 2004.
Fueled by his artistic passion, Benjamin now has turned his attention to other creative outlets and is making an indelible mark on the film and television world, having recently starred in Universal Picture's Idlewild, a musical set in the prohibition-era South in which Benjamin stars and for which he co-created the story and co-wrote the soundtrack with his OutKast partner, Big Boi; the drama Four Brothers for director John Singleton, in which he received rave reviews for his portrayal of an adopted brother opposite Mark Wahlberg; and Be Cool the sequel to the smash hit comedy, Get Shorty and co-starring John Travolta, Uma Thurman, Vince Vaughn, and Cedric the Entertainer. Benjamin also lent his voice to the anime feature Whasango and Paramount Picture's live-action/CG feature, Charlotte's Web.
Benjamin will next be seen in the drama, Battle In Seattle, co-starring Charlize Theron and directed by Stuart Townsend.
Benjamin is also creator and executive producer of "Class of 3000," an animated series for the Cartoon Network which is entering its second season. He also provides the voice of the series' main character as well as composes the series' music.
André Benjamin is also an accomplished painter and clothing designer, further solidifying his role as a true multi-media artist and entrepreneur. Among his many accolades, Benjamin has been named the World's Best Dressed Man by Esquire Magazine and was named as one of Premiere Magazine's "New Power Players."
André Benjamin, a musician and actor who is half of the acclaimed, multi-platinum selling music duo Outkast and has appeared in films such as Four Brothers and Idlewild, plays Clarence Withers, the flamboyant "superstar" of the Tropics. "I guess he's the most athletic of them all," says Benjamin. "He has this natural ability from the neighborhood or from the playground style of playing. He likes to go for all the shots and doesn't like to pass the ball. He doesn't even run down the court to play defense."
Will Ferrell was impressed by Benjamin's contributions to the film. "For André to be thrust into a comedy like this and have to be the best player on the court, he's been amazing. He brings his whole charisma to the film. And he may be the most stylish person I will ever meet in my life!"

Andre 3000 is by far the most talented rapper of all time
Idk about “by far” but there are few in his league and those that are are definitely head and shoulders above the rest
i didn't realize it before but andre is probably the only person i know that show class and swag at the same time and still make 'em look original lol
There is a reason he is known as Andre icecold 3000. You can see that the girl is hot for Andre... But he is ICECOLD
andre,3000,,, is that dude,his clothing line is a smash too....
this dude has MAD swagg!
When the OutKast sound changed and I started producing my own records, I would mirror what I thought that character doing that music would look like. As the sound got a little wilder, freakier and funkier, so did the clothes. Then when the sound got more sophisticated, the clothes changed again.
Andre Benjamin
the greatest rapper ever. Of life. The greatest rapper to ever walk the face of the planet
Dre is so fresh so clean
"nahhh i mean its styl der"
DAMN HE SO FINEEEEEEE
I though I was the only one who thought that but yes he is fineeeee!!
dam wish he still made songs i love his style he has unique flows... miss it
definitely one of the top 10 lyricists of all time
You still on youtube bra
True, my man... true... he has class, but he also has "swagger"
I love Andre 3000!
OUTKAST FOR EVER !!!!!! :( damn they have very good old musicss
Andre and Big Boi make some of the best music my brain has ever heard.
Without a doubt one of the greatest MC's of all time.
that's a good point about how it all started with the party. hip-hop comes from sound system parties in jamaica where DJs would say they're own little rhymes over the records. a jamaican-born kid in NYC called Kool Herc brought that concept to house parties he'd host at his moms in the bronx. and hip-hop was born. it was really was that simple, i mean there's alot of factors that played into how it ended up looking and sounding, but it's birth was that simple and humble.
every time he talks it sounds like hes rapping! lol!!!
that girl is fine
That "reaction" he's talking about is J Cole.. You watch that guy go places.. but really though i got mad respect for 3000, he will always have a clever verse that doesnt need to curse every 10 words.. he's so talented with what he does
Cole is a great now
It wasn't Cole at all , more like Kendrick
@@theavatar9191 Called it I guess lol
@@MrCtlyons Definitely did 😂
It's Andre 3000 and Sunny Bridges!
Best rapper. ever. period.
the interviewer's hormones are goin crazy
damn that chick is fine
Hiphophead1 Ohhh boy, grow up
Man where?! This must have been the style 4-10years ago 🤷🏽♀️
Still in love. HOT and smart.
Now this is one cool, real brotha! No ignorant ass coments just real talk.
The man is amazing!
andre be talkin bout real shit and he have the perfect answer to the question to the about hip hop and lmao at bear attack
andre is a brilliant man.
Andre 3000 can even paint well, there adverts for his psychedelic paintings in the back of a couple of Outkast albums.
loveeee himmmmm
Andre's smooth like a hot comb on nappy ass hair.
The greatest of all time
He made a great point that dancing was in the beginning
oh my God, he is so fine!
Most def, he's a musical genius really, he plays like 4 instruments and raps and sings(though his singing isnt the greatest, hes still far from tone deaf.)
the rap game let alone music needs andre back. so people remember what a good rapper is. all this new shit wiz, lil wayne, drake, ect, ect. that everyone thinks is so good is clueless and forgot what real rap is. Outkast 4 life!
AMDRE 3000 ISz THE BESTt RAPPER ALIVE.!
HANDSz DOWN.!
man thats the key what he just said "went to a party theme..what people fail to realize is that hip hop started at the party" and that right there is the motherfucking truth, so all these late 80s, early 90s bitter has been rappers are mad they don't have a #1 album. The dudes complaining the most are New York cats too like tribe called quest, KRS-1 (omg this dude needs to stfu). Yet dudes like Jay and 50 are keeping it rolling and keeping it fresh, sure you might not love em but theyre workin
ANDRE HAS THE HENDRIX PERSONA..
WHAT I LOVE THE MOST IS THEY SOLD TEN MILLION ALBUMS OVER THE EYS OF ALL THESE HARD RAPPERS THAT TALK TALK STREET BATTLES AND GUNS.WE JUST WANNA RELAX AND HAVE FUN WHEN IT COMES TO POP MUSIC..
dre ben dont quit.Gather up fat sax and o.n.p. and put out another classic. We need it out here. we miss yuh.
I love all music wat happen to the love of music
luv him!
That's why she shouldn't open it for letting words OUT, but for letting things IN
PLEASE COME BACK TO RAP
he has charisma
Interviewer was hot as hell
Good interview, bad interview, I was just happy to see 3000:)
we don't even GOT corndogs lmao.
dat shit cracked me up, someone in the library all looked over at me, fuck outta here with that let me lol ahahaha
mens, i m european and i don t understand why there is so much people upset about who is the best between andre and eminem, the both are really good this is the point. it s not necessary about money all the time. you make me sad, i ve got impressions the best for you guys is the one who seel more. artist is not just about money, wake up guys !!
So much sexual tension.
Hell yeah it is! lol I was thinking the same thing! I like this guy's sense of fashion.
Come back Andre...
thats is so right what dre said was exacly right
people really love andree 3000 i can understand why
so much sexual tension!!
singigs been around forever, what you talking about? he just picked it up because it fit.
Make more music Andre!!!!!!!!
I got luv 4 all of hip hop! I really miss the old hip hop eventho I respect wutz going on now but I wish Andre wud give us that style from ATLiens along with him, Bun B, Z-Ro, 1995 Cee-Lo Green the south still has some conscious flava in hip hop. I kno Dre has evolved into the ultimate artist which I luv but I miss him rhymin' on sum beats coming from Big K.R.I.T. or that old Organized Noise Prod
cont.:
Music didn't start off the block with twenty different genres. People experimented with music enough to make it it's own category. Like, Punk and Ska to Rock. Rock isn't the same as it was back in the day. The years have evolved it into what it is right now. Who's to say that rock today will be the same as rock twenty years from now?
You can tell she wants to jump his bones.. he probably hit that, good looks Andre!
Nah, he tryna' kick the shit you need to learn though//
That ether, that shit that make your soul burn slow//
such a fucking awesome hat
Happy b-day to Mr. 3K!
everyone knows the hustlas in the industry are overplayed and the talent is underappreciated. but thats all on the artist. some just want their shit sold and some just want their story told, but you gotta want a little of both to be successful
hes right... i listen to hella conscious and revolutionary hip hop...but umm @ when it comes down to it...hella music revolves around bein social and partying
The sexiest, softest lips ever on a man.
LOL! This guy is a genius!!!!!! LOL! While those conscious cats be talking and insulting Drake, Weezy, Kanye, Andre puts on the table!
s/he is right...kinda
love below/speakerboxxx sold as a double disc 5 mili, which as a double disc is 10. that would be a diamond.
Anyone know what kind of fedora this is, specifically?
The world wasn't ready for 2016 though...
I agree and by the way, Eminem is the best selling hip hop artist of all time. He's not black. Meaning to say, the best sold artist doesn't fit in the stereotype of HIP HOP ARTISTS. He may not be the best, but he has sold the most. and my own two cents, Andre 3000 is a great entertainer. He is an Actor and Artist and is doing well in both fields.
theres been a new dance since forever.
the only difference is that the internet makes it easier for dances to be seen. these dancing rappers dont walk up to record labels and get signed. these labels follow the internet buzz.
and theres not even that many dances. you cant name more than 10 dances that blew up the radio within the past year.
HIP HOP is only dead to those who want it to be.
the interviewer is a dime. although she don't know the words coming outta mouth.
@203runit no he is not dead
Originally Duo OutKast
@andreisabigliar What are you talking about? Tres' Stacks made has been on good terms with his child and Ms. Badu. She even made that extra video in honey to mimick Hey Ya for his birthday gift/tribute. So....yeah....
he seems super smart
good shit...
tech4156: that was a pretty rad comment. congrats
@lobo1como1yo That's exactly why I wrote it
Im glad someone else made the connection
can someone tell me what kind of hat that is? it aint no normal fedora... i want one in brown..
Comin' in with Crazy-fists!
lol she's got the hots for Andre
and love songs
cont.:
Hip hop IS for everyone. It's how the population views them that make them famous. If a white guy did as well as a black guy, he'll get some props too. Just because it started off popular with one race doesn't mean a thing.
Jazz, Rock, Pop, etc. are all culturally diverse. Some more than others, but that's not the point.
He fucking better not be. We don't have enough good southern rappers.
@kasimovaya "dressed so fresh so clean" :)
Don't believe everything u read. I just saw Jay and Em perform together for the DJ Hero game release2 months ago. Chris Brown not being on the BET awards show was a Stephen Hill/Debra Lee decision, not a jayz. Both are great lyricist but I enjoy 3 stacks the most.
dude i agree 100%
my guy looks like a black indiana jones but he is one of best ever
ALX - "Working Overtime"
its
good musik :p !!
listeeeeen up peeeps!!!
rap
Hip Hop isn't a sub culture, it is a culture. Rap music is the sub culture. Don't get it twisted.
When i first posted you had -3 and that shit was fucked up in my opinon. I read your comment before I actually saw the video and that shit had me crackin up once I saw Dre.
she is sooo cute.
coffee black lol
Everything he's been on recently he's absolutely destroyed. In the most beautiful of ways. The Sixteen verse and the Pink Matter verse are legendary... I really hope he returns and does another rap album before he retires. Or at least an album with SOME rapping. He's GOAT in my book.
That girl is about to shit her pants!!!!!!
youtube search "check my vision" ASAP!!!!!
one problem he fails to point out is that Main Stream although he says "its everything its partying, its being conscience its all this" but problem is that main stream is only doing the "partying, get stupid" part of hip hop and therefor making it look like the the unknown world that thats what hip hop is, so yes in essence main stream hip hop is killing Hip Hop's name and they don't care about their ppl or fans, thats why so many people say it or else, they wouldn't be saying its dying
