Gnarls Barkley Changed My Life

Published Thursday, April 27, 2006 by one of four Young Guns | E-mail this post

What Up!?

I was able to download a leaked version of a new CD (But I swear to buy a copy when it comes out) which is a collaboration (or Collabo for us hip-hop fans) between the producer Danger Mouse and my favorite Rapper/Singer/Poet Cee-Lo Green who call themselves Gnarls Barkley, the album is called St. Elsewhere.

I've been waiting for this CD for over a year now when I first started hearing about it being made. When I was waiting for it to download I kept thinking it wouldn't live up to my expectations but it did...To The Extreme! This music is F'n "Punch in the Brain" Good.

This album is the next Outkast - Speakerbox/Love Below. It's this summer’s soundtrack, sounding simultaneously timeless, familiar and totally forward-thinking. I feel like I needed to tell all of you about it before it makes it huge, or "huger" than it already has. (The Song "crazy" is #1 in the UK, and is the theme song for my Chimprov troupe with Crad "Crazyname") It comes out early May so look for it, 'Cause it's going to be crazy!

Love,

Jules

This was a recetn requisition of mine. But, I got it, without previous knowledge of the composition of Gnarls Barkley. Your statements speak the truth and I advocate this album to be one of the best of the summer...Your musical taste continues to inspire and impress me... see you tonight... HAM-on

Intellectual property theft is not cool.

So when exactly does it come out?
The guy at Megatunes was only able to say, "About 1 or 2 weeks".
But he's stoked for it too.

And PS - Crazy is now being played on the Bounce.

Thanks for expressing your musical preferences, because after reading your post I found out more about Gnarls Barkley, and especially Danger Mouse. I'm not a huge fan of hip-hop and don't know much about it, but anyone who can create a sweet mash up using The Beatles and Jay Z is okay in my books! The Beatles can be mashed up with just about anything, including improv??
