Andre 3000's Jimi Hendrix Biopic: See The Rapper In Costume (PHOTO): "This will be the second unauthorized biopic on Jimi Hendrix and the second covering only the three years Experience was created. Hendrix was more than just three years. The first one was a made for cable on Showtime and a media friend of mine gave me an advanced copy. It was bad and the same problem exist with this one as with that one and that is the estate didn't give permission to use the music that they control. They can't control his image but the music was legally fought to control. Hendrix did more in his life than just those three years and a lot of this film will just be filling in a small portion of a life that may nit satisfy the true die-hards of Hendrix. What about when he played with Little Richard, B.B. King and The Isley Brothers? What about his time in the military and how he broke his leg? what about his relationship with his mother and father and who gave him his first guitar? The first Showtime film was poorly developed and this may have the same pedigree if they can't expand more than just three years because the only thing Andre is doing is playing dress up."
