Song of the Day: Andre 3000, "Class of 3000 Theme Song"

Um, did anyone know that Andre 3000 of Outkast has his own show on the Cartoon Network? I consider myself pretty well-versed in all things music- and TV-related, and I honestly had no idea. Perhaps that's because I don't have kids, but if I did, I'd be plopping them down in front of the tube every Thursday night to catch "Class of 3000."

The animated series has Andre voicing a character named Sunny Bridges, "who quits the entertainment business and returns to Atlanta to teach a diverse group of child prodigies at the Westley School for the Performing Arts." New episodes start tonight at 7 p.m. EDT, and Andre is also releasing a 14-song Class of 3000 soundtrack on July 3. Even the theme song is adorable and catchy. It starts with a roll call (I'm partial to Philly Phil) and goes into a playful jam full of Prince-esque guitars, jazzy clarinets, and "la-la-la's." Listen and tell me what you think when you read more
