GNARLS BARKLEY ST. ELSEWHERE Rapper Cee-Lo and producer Danger Mouse (he of the gene-spliced Grey Album--a mix of the Beatles' White Album and Jay-Z's Black Album) present the best psychedelic soul record since the P-Funk era. Cee-Lo has Bobby Womack-style chops and a willingness to get vulnerable, but Danger Mouse replaces all the moldering soul tropes--over-the-top strings, key-changing hysterics--with minimalist bass lines, trippy samples and planetariums full of crunchy galactic sounds. The result on Necromancing, Just a Thought and the superb Crazy (the first single...
Gnarls Barkley “Crazy” Dir. Robert Hale “Crazy,” the first single from the team of Cee-Lo Green (the soul machine) and DJ Danger Mouse (“The Grey Album”), is so goddamn funky that it reached number one on the UK singles charts in its first week of release…before the single was even sold in stores.

Nominations for their productions flooded the urban categories of the 2005 Premio Lo Nuestro awards, in which fans’ votes recognize Latin music; in February, they traveled to Miami to receive top “Urban Album” honors for “Mas Flow 2,” another multifaceted collection...

...Jermaine engage in rhyme-scheme and sound-scape rip-off so blatant that it simultaneously makes the listener forget the former’s significant contributions to hip-hop while somehow also eclipsing the mountain of crap that the latter has produced. Poor J-Lo is stuck in the middle (literally—the video splits LL’s still-impressive torso in two, with the aging ass queen wasting space, wearing strange towel-hats and barely singing.) I am also afraid that the average age of the three stars (damn near 40) is going to encourage hordes...
