Just bumping ...And His Pefect I and it's making me feel really good. That intro where he impersonates the dunskie being like "Yo your violator shit was hot, but son, son, dudes wanna hear you RHYME!" Then he drops that madness, and at the end kicks some "I don't ever wanna hear nobody talk about n****s from the South can't rhyme." Don't know how this album doesn't constantly come up as a role model. Dude's talent is multifarious--he's writing interesting stuff, raping hard, picking cool beats, remaining creative on all fronts.Anyone know what's up with a new Goodie Mob, or a Cee-Lo rap record? The Gnarls Barkley stuff was cool, but for very different reasons.b/w"Dro in the Wind" is that Fire.

    To be honest I always thought that song was rather embarrassing in a Killah Priest sort of way. Never mind the contrived alliteration.

    I respect Cee-Lo's creativity, and I bought both his solos right when they dropped, but I can't say I return to them too often.

    That record is classic to me, and it came out during a time when I would still sit and listen to a full album on repeat and really soak it up. I always thought it was slept on.
