Outkast founder and master-of-all-trades Andre 3000’s mother has been found dead in her home, it has just been confirmed.
Unsubstantiated reports broke earlier this afternoon but a representative of the musician and actor has now stated that Sharon Benjamin-Hodo, believed to be in her early 60s, has passed away on what is her son’s 38th birthday. No cause of death has been established.

The campaign was run out of New Morning Light Missionary Baptist Church in Conley, Georgia, which was presided over by her husband Pastor Robert Hodo.
