Outkast's Andre 3000 got out his coloring pencils and favorite crayolas. He headed over to the Cartoon Network and pitched himself a show. A show about the future. A show about himself.

One day Andre 3000 will have amassed 27 Grammies and a Nobel Prize. When this day comes he will change his name to Sunny Bridges, or at least go by this name, and turn his back on all the chump bitches who obviously can't step and decide to train young, budding musicians, leaving celebrity to go suck it.

Cartoon network of course snapped at the chance to be the home to the new series dubbed Class of 3000. Students in the late 2990s apparently still have names similar to today, and in fact even use the title Lil', which I thought we'd have figured out is stupid in the next thousand years. Sunny's students are Lil' D, Tamika, Philly Phil, Madison, Eddie and twins Kim and Kam. The show's characters represent a broad ethnic diversity, which Dre said stems from his own life growing up:

Class of 3000 has no official start date or time slot, but is slated for CN's November lineup. Outkast fans will want to watch because each episode promises a new song by Andre with an animated music video. Guest artists were invited to draw these music videos with contributions already by Overton Loyd, renowned for his work on album covers by Parliament, Peter Chung ( Aeon Flux ), Alan Bodner ( Iron Giant, The Life & Times of Juniper Lee ) among others.

Dre is also suggesting the show will feature many, many guest artists who will drop by and peddle their shit. Dre spoke about the likelihood of guests:

If you're a sucker for songs with La La Las, head over to the show's homepage and join in singing the theme song. It's a pretty funky theme song.
