"When I was younger, me and my friend were in a car accident. We were riding with my friend’s mom, but we were so young, we didn’t know what happened until we woke up in the hospital. I didn’t know, I was a kid," the rapper recalled.

It seems the universe then intervened in a major way to make sure that that wasn't the end of the future legend's story.

"We were on this street in Atlanta and it was a non-busy street, and fortunately, this guy who had money passed by, and he had one of the first working cell phones. It was like a suitcase and he was able to call an ambulance," Andre explained. "If we didn’t have that cell phone, we would have been out there for a minute and might have died.”
