Colorful rap group
Outkast
won two awards at Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Awards.
The rap duo took home Best Song award for their
hit "Hey Ya," as well as Best Group honors.
"Thank you for inviting us to your award
show,” Andre 3000 told the crowd, made up mostly of screaming kids. "We’re
having a great time, and it is so great to learn how to read. You have to read,
that’s it, and count, and all that type of stuff. Stay away from drugs.”
Big Boi also reminded the importance of voting
to children to reminding them to tell their parents to vote in the upcoming
elections.
The Kids’ Choice Awards differ from most awards
in that kids vote for their favorite musicians, actors and sports heroes.
In related news, Big Boi recently joined the
line up for Atlanta’s Music Midtown Festival, taking place in Atlanta from April
30-May 2.
