Good stuff, which seems rarer and rarer nowadays.

Damn, I had no idea this was in the works, and I love Cee-Lo.

Something else worth checking, and that I haven't seen mentioned in this thread, is the new album from The Coup. "Pick a Bigger Weapon" is in stores now, and it's pretty damn good. It also features a great guest spot from Black Thought And Talib Kweli.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
