Andre 3000 Stars in Political Action Film

Outkast’s Andre 3000 is starring in an upcoming film, “The Battle of Seattle,” alongside Oscar award winner Charlize Theron, Martin Henderson, Woody Harrelson, and Ray Liotta.

The political action movie is set during the infamous World Trade Organization meeting in Seattle, and recounts the ensuing riots from the perspectives of the protestors, pedestrians, politicians, and WTO delegates.

During the five-day WTO meeting in 1999, tens of thousands of protestors took to the streets, and what started as a peaceful gathering escalated into a full-blown riot, ending in a state of emergency and an intervention by the National Guard.

The movie is written and directed by Irish actor Stuart Townsend.

I respect that opinion hdawg...but when it comes to lyrics i dont give a phuck if andre was rapping over a country western track....hes a dayem beast. Since your throwing your opinion around...shyt i'll toss mine a little and say that anybody will be searching far and wide to find a emcee to "match" his talent let alone "out spit" him....or the boy cee lo green. Then cee lo can turn right around and out sing ya azz too. But thats just opinion. Im looking past hip hop, it takes a brother with talent to kill with the beats and rhyme....then step into another genre and make serious paper. Serious paper.

Andre is hiphop's prince. Dude is kinda swishy, but he probably bags more chicks than you ever will.
