Andre 3000 mentions Prince in Oneworld magazine interview

relevant excerpt: [Who is the George? Clinton? -Ben]

{{{GEORGE: Who havent' you worked with that you have always wanted to, on a collaboration or track?

DRE: Well, when we did the song "Synthesizer" on the Aquemini album with you, that was a blessing because I've always wanted to work with you. And I still think we have some more things to dig into. So we got to get together again. I never worked with Prince. I'm most definately a fan of Prince.}}}

GEORGE: I was just with him the night before last and I was just kidding with him and recording some stuff.

DRE: I never even met the brother, tell the truth.

GEORGE: He's real cool people, quiet and shy, but real cool.

DRE: Yeah, that's cool. Sly [Stone], I want to see what Sly's doing now.

GEORGE: He's cutting. I don't know whether he's putting stuff out or what's on his mind. He's hard to figure out, he lives by the word of "If you want me to stay, I'll be around today." Whatever he was talking about, he could be trying to send us a message.

DRE: I just want to see him and touch him, you know. I never even seen him like now, you know.

GEORGE: I'll give him the message--him and Prince?

DRE: Yeah, please, man, 'cause I've got things, like out of all the stuff we're doing right now, it could not be done without the stuff you all did.

I like that he doesn't act like he's an original and gives props to his influences. Dre is a cool cat.

Seriously, he seems to have a really humble attitude, and frankly, P hasn't put out anything as good as those last 2 Outkast records in ages. And a Prince wannabe? influenced, sure, but that's like calling P a George/Sly wannabe.

I have a feeling it will be their night,meaning they will win a few Grammys.
And what I want to see is,everytime they accept an award,they thank P and go on and on about how much they loved listening to him growing up..basically kiss his butt.
