DETROIT, MI Sunday Apr.11.2004 /netmusiccountdown.com/ -- Outkast's Andre 3000 says that once he's completed the two records left on his contract with Big Boi, he's outta there. The rapper says that he wants to commit himself fully to acting, and then after that, move on to something else.

Andre's in the new Elmore Leonard movie, the sequel to "Get Shorty," and will also play Jimi Hendrix in the Hughes brothers film of the late guitar legend. "I'm over music," he says. "It's draining. I think I'll just get really deep into film and grow a beard so people won't know who I am. Then I'll go away. I'll go away and do something else. It just scares me when people scream. 'Cause I'm sitting there and what am I supposed to do? It's embarrassing."
