Editorial Review: Album Description: Gnarls Barkley is the highly anticipated collaboration from Danger Mouse and Cee-Lo. Danger Mouse is one of the most important artist/producers in music today. "Demon Days" sold over 5 million worldwide and Dangerdoom's "The Mouse And The Mask" sold over 100,000 units. Accolades include GQ's "Men Of The Year" honor; Spin's "Eccentric Genius Of The Year", NME's "Hottest Hip-Hop Producer In The World", Entertainment Weekly's "Album Of The Year", Grammy nomination for Producer Of The Year, and more. Cee-Lo is a Grammy-nominated, founding member of Goodie Mob. He wrote and produced the Pussycat Dolls #1 smash hit "Don't Cha", and his two solo albums for Arista scanned over 500,000 units combined. He also wrote hit singles for Ludacris, Common, P Diddy, Trick Daddy, and others. "Goodie Mob" has sold over two million albums worldwide. "Crazy", from this release, is all over UK's Radio One. Amazon.com: In 2006, Danger Mouse is King Midas of the music world. He has an uncanny knack for creating jagged, dense, frenzied beats and odd, eerie, vivid soundscapes that never compromise the music's natural flow. Meanwhile, rapper and singer Cee-Lo, a veteran of Atlanta's Dirty South scene, has never been one to be constrained by hip-hop conventions, and is a willing partner in adventure. The result is an intrepid psychedelic blend of pop, hip-hop, soul, and rock that consistently challenges and delights. It's no wonder that "Crazy," with its modest riff, irresistible hook, and disarming opening line ("I remember when, I remember, I remember when I lost my mind") became a worldwide Internet sensation a full six months before the official release of St. Elsewhere. But that relatively simple soul-pop gem is the tamest track on this wide-ranging, often dark and introspective collaboration. (In fact, the duo considers Gnarls Barkley to be a wholly new creation, as opposed to a collaboration of existing artists.) "Everybody is somebody, but nobody wants to be themselves," Cee-Lo croons on "Who Cares?" He and Danger Mouse try very hard not to be their old selves as they creatively and confidently break down boundaries, but the brilliant cores of their musical personae--Cee-Lo's eccentric spiritual soul man and Danger's bold sonic explorer--remain. --Marc Greilsamer Customer Reviews
Average Rating:
 Rating:  - A nice little albumIt's a refreshing, fun album, with no really weak songs and quite a few that are really catchy. It's not for everyone, granted, but I enjoy it a lot. Rating:  - not a fani bought this based on the reviews, thinking that i was going to like it. maybe i need to give it a good listen, but i've tried twice and i just can't get into it. Rating: - Life is Flawless in ElsewhereDanger Mouse is one of the most inventive producers I've ever heard. Cee-Lo shares a lot of that creativity in his vocals. This mash-up was one of the biggest successes in the music industry. A new genre was generated out of the storm of Gnarls Barkley. I am a strong supporter of this new age, and these two guys are leading the movement. We are at a time when people are dying for something new. Gnarls Barkley is the most original music in this age. Theres nothing quite like them. So anyway I would go through the tracks, but I don't have a problem with anyone of them. The most important track on the cd is "Crazy". This opened the door to the new realm of music, and the whole world responded and loved it. The song won a Grammy ... Read More: Rating:  - "Dissappointing"Very dissappointing. Could only find 2-3 decent tracks on this CD. Just not worth the cost. Wish I hadn't bought it. Rating: - A new take on an old ideaThis has the flavor of classic funk (specifically the later years of Motown) but with a new twist. It invoked in me the same sensation as when Jamiroquai first came out. There's something wonderfully and comfortingly familiar while having plenty of newness so it doesn't come across as too-safe retro tripe. |
