Andre 3000 Wants To Attend Juilliard

OutKast's Andre 3000 has already earned a Grammy Award for album of the year for his latest release, Speakerboxxx/ The Love Below, but the talented rapper recently explained that he would like to study classical music. During an interview with Rolling Stone, Andre 3000 said, "I want to go to Juilliard to study classical music. I've been thinking about it for about a year. But things got kinda busy. This record took off. I can't be in school right now. But I'm taking saxophone and clarinet lessons. I'd study classical composition and music theory. Like, now, I was working on songs for Gwen Stefani (news)'s album, and I could tell her how to sing them but not the range."
The rapper also addressed the break-up rumors that have been surrounding OutKast since the group issued its latest release. He said, "There'll be two more OutKast albums. I'm willing to accept that no matter what I do next, it may not be as big as 'Hey Ya!' or OutKast. But it's a growth thing. Paul McCartney (news) and John Lennon (news) never did anything as big as the Beatles. But they still did some cool sh-t on their own."
Next up for OutKast is the release of a new single, "Roses." The group will also begin production on a movie in May for HBO.
In the meantime, Andre 3000 is busy filming his role in the Get Shorty sequel, Be Cool. The mild-mannered rapper will play the role of a hardcore rapper in the film, which also stars John Travolta (news) and Cedric The Entertainer.
