Andre 3000 To Appear In Music Video!?!?!

It is a well-known fact that Andre 3000 does not do music videos! In fact, this has led to artists either replacing his verse for video versions (see Beyonce’s “Party” video) or not releasing a video for a single entirely (Young Jeezy, “I Do”). But it looks like Rick Ross has convinced the notorious rapper appear in his visuals. Mr. Three Stacks is featured in “Sixteen”, a song from Rick Ross’s album God Forgives, I Don’t and rumor has it these two are collaborating on a treatment for the video. This is a huge deal because like I previously stated, Andre 3000 does not do music videos. In an interview with MTV back in March, he had this to say:
“Every artist I work with from Beyonce, from Young Jeezy and Jay-Z, from BoB, it was all understood before my first rhyme was written that there was going to be no videos. And I always felt like—you know, I haven’t been in even in a video with Big Boi—it’s kind of disrespectful of me if I can just jump in a video with a new artist and I haven’t even jumped in the video with my own partner. So I always said, I’m not going to fully jump back into it until I really do it. I’m not going to play around. If it’s not my project or an Outkast thing, or you know, if I’m supporting Big Boi, then it just didn’t make sense for me. It just didn’t feel right doing it. So it’s a loyalty to myself and trying to make sure I really wanted to be in the business again.”
Well, call Ross lucky because he definitely is winning if he can pull this video off!
