Australia is about as far away as you can get. I like that.
Andre Benjamin
It's harder to be a success, globally, and be artistic. Harder to have that balance than just to be artistic when nobody understands you.
Andre Benjamin
I think it's real important to show style now. The majority of style right now is to act like you don't have style at all, so most companies are getting rich off clothes that look torn, clothes that look worn.
Andre Benjamin
I think a lot of African-American kids don't have fathers to teach them how to dress, so you end up being taught by pictures in magazine and movies. You see cowboys, Indians, old Hollywood films, Cary Grant. It has an effect on you.
Andre Benjamin
You look in the mirror everyday and you see the same thing. As an entertainer, you wanna see something new.

Sometimes your fans are way deeper than you are. They think you meant something like this big power-of-the-world thing that you said, but really you were just trying to find a word to rhyme with another word.
Andre Benjamin
I'm a thinker I think too much. So for me to freestyle rap, it's like I'm thinking three, four time steps ahead, and I hate it.
Andre Benjamin
Now, my oral illustration be like clitoral stimulation to the female gender Ain't nothin' better Let me know when it's wet enough to enter
Andre Benjamin
I'm a fan of making things that I've seen but couldn't purchase, or things I bought that didn't fit the way I like.
Andre Benjamin
If you look at old football pictures, the jerseys were hanging, the sleeves were dangling, but now everything is tucked and tailored.
Andre Benjamin
I've learned that I'm most powerful when I'm doing my art.
Andre Benjamin
When the OutKast sound changed and I started producing my own records, I would mirror what I thought that character doing that music would look like. As the sound got a little wilder, freakier and funkier, so did the clothes. Then when the sound got more sophisticated, the clothes changed again.
Andre Benjamin
If models are made for modeling, thick girls are made for cuddling.
Andre Benjamin
SAD, BUT ONE DAY OUR KIDS WILL HAVE TO VISIT MUSEUMS TO SEE WHAT A LADY LOOKS LIKE.
Andre Benjamin
When I'm shooting a film, I don't look at playback. I don't go and do a scene and then hurry up and watch what I just did. I never look at it so I haven't seen any of it.
Andre Benjamin
It's funny, I don't even consider myself a rapper, I don't consider myself a designer, or even an actor. I just like creating stuff and trying to make good work, whatever it is. I don't care if it's designing toothbrushes. It's just making cool stuff to leave behind, that's all it is, it's nothing more.
