CP: what exactly is so bad about this, out of curiosity? PS I've been splitting time basically between "Satisfied,"It's Okay" and new Kanye... decisions decisions...

Maybe it's just not my genre or something. I mean, I generally try to remain objective when I'm rating stuff, minus the odd blip, but I heard/hear Forget You every day at work, on the worst radio station you could ever imagine, and it fits in seamlessly with Robbie Williams, Spice Girls, Westlife, Boyzone etc. I know people say that the non-censored version is infinitely better, but I listened and disagree. I sat through the album three times (after reading this review) trying to find something I liked, but the whole thing just sounds revolting to me. Ultra-basic rhyme schemes, purile lyrics, workaday instrumentation - just third rate pop delivered by a guy who sounds like a black adam-sandler-retard.

To a certain degree I can see how he's most definitely right though. Cee Lo doesn't distance himself that much from the crowd.

I saw the Gwyneth Paltrow performance of "Forget You" on Glee and I just about killed myself.

Think i'm gonna give this a whirl right after I finish with Tricky. Even if I don't like it the girls will.

Same here man. I despise the edited version of that song so very much, even worse when sung horribly and not by Cee-Lo.



I can't get over how retro this sounds, and not in a kitschy way. "Satisfied" sounds like a long lost B-Side from Motown in the 60s, like it was just ripped right out of that decade. So good.

'The Lady Killer' - the 3rd LP from unique Atlantan Cee Lo Green - effectively updates classic R&B with a mainstream accessible combination of retro-soul & pop. Superbly produced & arranged, the album is filled with strings, horns & backing vocals, while mixed results come from the loose concept which occasionally sends the album into darker territory. The thing is, even if a song may not suit him, Green's personality & voice almost always make it somehow work. And I'm not sure anyone could dislike the contagious 'F*ck You', which is a genuine song of the year contender. Recommended Tracks: F*ck You, Bright Lights Bigger City, It's OK & I Want You.

The music is good but I usually try to avoid this type of music because I get a feeling like its another douche 'hey im god' album, but right now it sounds pretty sincere and awesome

I think Satisfied is a close second to Fuck You for me
