It was the most under-discussed show of 2007, but Andre 3000's collaboration with the Cartoon Network, <i>Class of 3000</i>, is nothing short of revolutionary. Most of the main characters on the show are non-white, the music reflects true pop music so closely you'll have a hard time discerning where Outkast ends and Class of 3000 begins, and the humor that imbues every story detail boggles the mind. The premise concerns Sunny Bridges, a musician who has suffered at the hands of the unscrupulous music industry and returns home to Georgia to end his career, only to be offered a job as a music instructor at a local school. He takes it, flying under the radar to avoid media attention while becoming immersed in the world of his students. It's a fascinating concept, and the program features a different style of music in every episode. If this doesn't have the makings of a cult classic, we'll eat our MP3s. - Sarah BardeenSouthern Rap/Hip-Hopen720Tue, 15 Dec 2009 08:02:42 -0800 http://static.realone.com/rotw/images/logo_rhapsody_113x22.gif http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.38902&variant=artist-playlists&rws=%2Fandre-3000%2Fplaylists.rss The high priest of funk now writes and produces a cartoon?
