Somewhere between Outkast's "Hey Ya" and this group's "Crazy", the formula for success with this stuff became clear: Make hip-hop-styled music based around the sound of the 1960s- the old soul music that's a common ancestor to nearly everything going today- and you'll bring in fans from every direction. Oddly enough, that means this album will be a grower- dead opposite the flash and fade of that debut.ĭanger Mouse, meanwhile, is tackling a different set of challenges. Get over the lack of colorful pop baubles, and you'll notice that the best work here comes in the form of low-key cuts about isolation and uncertainty, like "Who's Gonna Save My Soul". What Cee-Lo seems to be after is a kind of restrained, gut-searching soul music, packed with even more self-doubt and self-laceration than the first record. More importantly, there are times, as DM's beats trail by in their muddy, tasteful way, where Cee-Lo sets to work developing something terrific, even if it's not the shiny pop thrill a lot of fans might want. It'd be cruel and point-missing to pick on them for this- as cruel as it'd be to tell your friends they're more "fun" when they're off their meds. And much like your average SSRI, it means less of the unpredictable magic and the sideways song-notions that sold the first album. They've done that, to an extent- not by any huge, transformative leap, but a little. It was inevitable that these two would have to fight past their idiosyncrasies (producer Danger Mouse's short attention span, singer Cee-Lo's ease with throwing vocals together on the fly) and deliver something more focused, something that doesn't require so much sorting through. Hit the big time on the strength of one of those, though, and the world has big-time demands. The joy of this duo's debut was a kind of erratic, anything-goes lightning-bottling its chintzy, slapdash qualities were more than made up for by the number of bottles containing honest-to-god scraps of actual lightning. was used in the generation of this content site is 100% curated by humans.Since Gnarls Barkley jumped into everyone's consciousness on the back of a single called "Crazy", would you forgive me the groaning joke if I said their follow-up sounded a little like someone prescribed mood stabilizers? That's the gripe you'll probably hear from most people: The Odd Couple is flatter, in both directions.
