The premise for the new OutKast flick . . . Sound familiar? In a Prohibition-era speakeasy, a manager-performer (Big Boi) and his piano player (André 3000) fight off gangsters looking to take over their business.
Not completely comparable to a past "musical," but if Kristin Scott-Thomas appears in this one, I'm through. Good night, sweet Prince | 7 June 1958 - 21 April 2016

I thought the storyline was supposed to have Andre falling in love with a white girl against her family's wishes? Now that would sound more like UTCM to me.  | |

Yeah, but verily I assure you, Dre3K will have a love interest and fake his way through a romantic piano ballad. Good night, sweet Prince | 7 June 1958 - 21 April 2016

Yeah, but verily I assure you, Dre3K will have a love interest and fake his way through a romantic piano ballad. Perhaps, but Dre actually plays the piano quite well (for someone who only plays by ear). I've seen some footage of him in the studio when he was laying down the foundation for "Stankonia (Stanklove)" on the piano and it sounded quite nice.

[This message was edited Tue Jun 29 9:41:08 2004 by okaypimpn] I saw some of that footage on Outkast: driven on VH1. I'd love to see more of it. Shit, the boy sang in the church choir when he was a kid, so technically, he was a singer before he was a rapper anyway. The Org is the short yellow bus of the Prince Internet fan community. | |

Kinda...Dre came up with the melodies of songs from The Love Below, but had the seasoned keyboardist, Kevin Kendricks, play the more intricate keyboard parts (ie. piano parts on "Love/Hater" and "Roses"). Dre is infact playing all keyboards on songs like "She Lives In My Lap" and "Dracula's Wedding" | |

actually, that doesn't sound anything like UTCM.  "Awards are like hemorrhoids. Sooner or later, every asshole gets one." | |

2 fish out of water, relatively speaking, facing powerful, evil, rich forces and a love story likely thrown in for good measure. Differences and similarities aside, I was joking. Good night, sweet Prince | 7 June 1958 - 21 April 2016
