According to an interview on Blackfilm.com, there are big changes in store for rapper’s recurring character when FX show returns this summer.
Andre “3000″ Benjamin will reprise his guest role on the FX drama The Shield when the show airs its seventh and final season this summer, reports Blackfilm.com.
“I’m actually playing a guy running for mayor in the show finale,” he told the Web site. “My character was first introduced years ago in a small role.”
In 2004, the rapper made a guest appearance as the owner of a comic book store who tried desperately to keep the area outside of his shop free of hookers and drug dealers.
Benjamin’s appearance this summer will take place in episode 13. In the meantime, his next film, Semi-Pro, is due in theaters Friday.
