With his work in Outkast and hit music like "Hey Ya", Andre 3000 has managed to bring funk back onto the music scene. Physically he looks almost like a reincarnation of Sammy Davis, Jr., but his music reminds more of George Clinton and Sly and the Family Stone.
Andre 3000 (real name: Andre Benjamin) met his Outkast mate BigBoi (real name: Antonie Patton) while studying at Atlanta's Tri-City high school.
