A3K: ‘It’s Tough Being African American’

It wasn’t that long ago when we were laying Andre 3000’s clothing line to rest. But then he got a shovel and dug it back up again.

Last week Dre launched his wack clothing line over the border in Toronto, Canada. But the interesting part came when he was asked him why his sales were nonexistent. Apparently, Dre really does wish he was white:

From Page Six:

Someone at the party asked the musician about his biggest challenge moving into fashion. First, he said, being an African-American was a challenge, as there’s a perception out there that “hip-hop stars will just throw their names on anything.” Then he added, “I’m not a gay man.” Says Canadian columnist Shinan Govani: “Basically the OutKast star says his challenges included a) being black, and b) not being gay.”
