Class of 3000 is an American animated television series on Cartoon Network that was created, executively produced, and starred by André 3000 of the Hip Hop group OutKast. The series originally aired on Cartoon Network from 2006-2008 with some episodes exclusively airing online. In the show, André 3000 himself appears as superstar and music teacher Sunny Bridges. The show is set at Westley School of Performing Arts in Atlanta, Georgia. Mr. Bridges is a jazz and blues artist who also occasionally lectures in Atlanta's Little Five Points residential area.

Legal trouble

The show ran into some legal trouble when in 2008 Boston Globe worker and former art student Timothy McGee filed a lawsuit against Andre 3000 alleging that the idea for Class of 3000 was taken from McGee's failed pitch "The Music Factory of the 90's" back in 1997. Due to this, Cartoon Network had to pull the show until an agreement could be settled.

Re-emergence

Once the lawsuit was settled full episodes were reuploaded exclusively to iTunes. Some episodes missing were found once it debuted on iTunes. The missing episodes can be found online, albeit in Romanian without subtitles. As of March 2017, four out of the five episodes are now available in English.
