Sorry, Just felt like saying it (it's the title of his new single). Cee-lo Green never fails to be interesting. What can't he do really? He can sing, produce, write, and rap. His new album entitled "The Lady Killer" is a little disappointing though. The problem that I have with it is that all of the songs sound quite similar.
All of the songs have a retro '60's kind of a groove, which makes me long for his hip-hop/rap sound or even his gospel-tinged sound. None of the songs really stand out from one another, but it definitely has an ongoing theme of groovy '60's love. His singing voice is wonderful as always. He sings with a couple of groovy ladies on this disc that stand out. "Love Gun" features Lauren Bennett and "Please" features Selah Sue. Both ladies are reminiscent of Teena Marie.
I applaud Cee-lo for stretching his boundaries, just miss his hip-hop roots this time around. My favorite tracks are "F**k You!" and "Fool For You" which features Phillip Bailey from Earth Wind and Fire. I give this album 2 1/2 stars, could be better.

I'd never even heard of him until recently. Will have to listen somewhere else since this is NSFW:)
