Yeah, I've had that one for a while. Niiiiiiice. You got this? Not as good as the first, but still...melikes.

for some reason ceelo's voice reminds me of macy gray's voice on the hook though
thanks day
Wrrrrrd, I actually heard those 2 in reverse. That "Crazy" cut is stronger, IMO, but they're both good. I know I'll probably get CLOWNT for all of this, but it sounds pretty promising to me. Cee Lo is that dude.
I got your back, dude.
The production isn't super-sophisticated, but it functions as a good backdrop for Cee-Lo, who's the real star of this record anyway. Indie/alt.rock vets should prepare to flip over the dead-straight cover of The Violent Femmes' "Gone Daddy Gone" as well. There's even one joint called "Boogie Monster" that sounds a little like Queens Of The Stone Age without the super-heavy guitars. "Crazy" is getting a ton of radio exposure in the UK, so a big pop hit is pretty much assured with that at least. I think the Moby/Fatboy Slim crowd are gonna eat this up, which should make for a steady series of five-pagers on its relative merits throughout the summer...
Thanks Day, would have never checked this if you didnt recommend it. Saw those Gnarls Barkley is crazy pictures all over myspace, and saw Danger Mouse was involved so I got real scared.
poor cee-lo.
Listening to anything Cee-lo is involved in these days is just depressing.
GooDie MoB had the ideal blend of personalities, and nothing those guys can accomplish individually will ever compare to it.
are you telling me you didn't love
??
I wish you hadn't told me that that existed....
Thanks day, feelin' this.
WOW.
that last Cee-Lo has been one of my fav. lp's in the past few years. Daniel, I thought you said you never heard that full-length outside of "You're the One" with Timbaland and T.I.....
Noz:
Cancer isn't a very funny joke. Sorry.
Gnarles Barkley:
Funny thing about that project that it's one-half one of my favourite "rappa turnt sanga" with one of the few artists that I kinda-sorta genuinely loathe. I also wonder if the same college corn-balls who hate Jay-Z/Rap but love the "Grey" album are going to be into Cee-Lo from now on.
King P'ssssssss
I think this is safe to say that this won't happen. Dangermouse is a pretty safe bet for hip hop oriented stuff- meaning that the album will garner enough steam behind him(especially critically) but won't blow upp too much.
I second you man. This is a great album:
"All Day Love Affair"
definition of
How anyone (even Fauxrockski) can front on this one is beyond me
Sounds like it was made for some alternate universe Northern Soul scene.

STORMING CHUNE
Not funny as in didn't make you laugh or not funny as in offensive? if it's the former, i apologize.
