B.o.B sat down with ThisIs50.com to discuss how he got in the game, comparisons to Andre 3000, and his new single 'I'll Be In The Sky'. "It's an influence that's obviously heard in the music," B.o.B said of the Outkast star. "It's kind of inevitable. I don't mind.

Are you serious? This cat said : people say you suck people say u sound like sh*t, people say you sound like Andrae 3000 its all in the same boat” … this is heart breaking, I mean im like what the FREAK man!!! If some one says u sound like 3000 thats a darn compliment. I tried to give this fella the benefit of the doubt, when I found this interview I was hoping to hear something like yeah it was produced by 3000 or outkast or something or atleast this guy would say something like 3000 was his all time favorite rapper and hero or something. but nooo this kat comes out all but tries to dis the comments about him sounding like 3000. Is he crazy? THERE IS NO WAY ANYONE COULD JUST HAPPEN TO SOUND ANYWHERE NEAR LIKE ANDRAE 3000 OR BIG BOY, THIS WAS NO ACCIDENT THIS DUDE TRAINED FOR 2 YEARS TO GET THIS SOUND!! HES STR8 FAKE, STYLE BITER!!! …hear breaking!!

late comment but i personally think that he didn’t mean to insult 3000, but he came in the industry to do his own thing, and he gets his comparisons from his rapping and singing style, content, and voice. he’s not against being like 3000, he’s against being like anyone
his content is insane in today’s hip hop industry and i think the industry needs more artists willing to explore like 3000 and b.o.b
