Lineage of Greatness is a new series from Call Out Culture where we trace the elusive spirit/muse that possesses an artist for a period of time making him or her the greatest.  It is temporary state, the muse is flighty and cannot be possessed forever.  We felt that Andre 3000 was the perfect artist to start this series with as his rain of greatness is otherworldly, he truly is one of the rare few to gain the greater understanding of the muse and managed to hold on to the mystical powers, seemingly growing stronger with greatness as the years go on.  In many ways Andre is like Qui Gon Jinn, almost a force ghost growing stronger and stronger.
