Atlanta hip-hop artist Andre 3000 doesn’t seem to get the same level of love from his local successors. Young Thug recently appeared on T.I.’s podcast ExpediTIously, the admired artist is at the current epicentre of Atlanta rap. He explains why he never much paid attention to Andre 3000.
T.I. explained the Young Thug that he’s “missing out” and says he needs to work with Andre 3000, referring to his recent collaboration with Elton John. Young Thug responds with “I can’t rap you two Andre 3000 songs. I ain’t never paid attention to him. Never in my life.”
The artist then went on to explain the different between to two artists, he says “the difference between Elton John and Andre is, to simplify it, Elton John likes to kiss ass, and Dre likes his ass kissed. Elton John like “Hey! I like you, I remember your first song, I remember Gucci first song. When Guwop getting out?’ He a fan type of n****, to the point where I’m like, ‘Let’s do music,’ and he’s like, ‘N**** bet!’ Andre more like, ‘This is his secretary. Tell the n**** it’s Thug, n****.’”
T.I. also questioned Andre’s fashion pioneering to Thug’s, prompting the younger rapper to explain why he wore a dress on his Jeffery cover. “That sh*t was just that simple,” he said. “That motherf*cker matched! It was not for attention. That’s on the Holy Bible, that’s on my kids.”
