André: Hey ya miss Zombie White Girl, can I talk t’ya for a second?
Zombie White Girl: hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh….
André: Stank you…stank you smelly much…hey Bentley can you grab my camera for me? Okay miss, I just need to request a short moment from you, if you don’t mind naw…
Zombie White Girl: hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh…
André: Well you see, I know I’ve been on GQ and Esquire a mighty-ighty many times, and that Benjamin Bixby line is doin’ pretty well, but lately…well, to be honest, lately I haven’t been feelin’ like my dapper ol’ self.
Zombie White Girl: hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh…?
André: Well, I wasn’t going to elaborate much on that, but since you’re asking — I’ve been thinkin’ a lot about what it means to be a legend…and I feel like I’m missing something…I’ve got the classic albums, been on the world tours, hell, I even inspired that one group iLL-Literacy to go on and do their thang.
Zombie White Girl: hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh….
André: Yeah, I think they’re amazing too. Anyway, I’ve pretty much got the music part of my legendary status down. I mean, not to be un-humble mumble, but I only have to record one verse a year an’ the whole world gets a-scramblin’ to post it up on their websites and such. It really ain’t no thang.
Zombie White Girl: hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh…
André: Oh right, right, I’m sorry…the point. Well, you know with so many legends passing lately, I’ve been thinking to myself, what do I need to not only prove that I’m a great artist, but also the MOST DAPPER artist? Naw, I’ve got my straw hats, french cuffs, hell, I even wear wool cardigans in Atlanta and it’s never cold enough in Atlanta to wear wool cardigans! And so I was thinkin’ about the greatest legend of all, Michael Jackson, and how stylish he could be in any siteeeation…moonwalking, in ancient Egypt, even as a zombie!
Zombie White Girl: hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
André: Okay, okay hold on shawtie, I know that wasn’t the best depiction of your people, but you see what I’m sayin’. And so I thought about becoming a zombie myself, but there are some inconveniences to that…such as being undead.
Zombie White Girl: hhhhhhhhhh…
André: Yeah, tell me about it. But me and Bentley, we was just walkin’ around this here street when I saw you! And when I looked in your eyes, I just knew you were the one…and if not, you are the prototype…for the kind of zombie I need to take a picture with!
Zombie White Girl: hhhhhhhhhhhhh?
André: Well, this is more of a personal project, but I figure…if I can pose next to a disheveled zombie girl with a fucked up face (no offense, but it’s pretty fucked up), I’ll just know that I’m the most dapper of ‘em all! So…mind if I take a quick picture with you?
Zombie White Girl: hhhhhhhhhh…
André: Thanks Zombie White Girl, you’re the best. Just for that, I’m going to bless the earth with a new song!
