Funny I interviewed Andre last Sunday and he said that if anything he wanted to stretch the imaginations of his own community who listen to straight hip-hop. Of the singing he said he didn't think he was much good, and that he couldn't hope to aspire to Prince in that dept. He released a non rap album as he said he couldn't think of anything to rap about. I wanted to ask about Erykah Badu but I really feel bad asking personal questions so we talked about his perfect soulmate and fatherhood instead. ;)
