Cee-Lo Green is an Atlanta original, born and raised there, and he came up in the Southern hip-hop crew Goodie Mob, which he joined in 1991. After three albums with the group he went solo on Arista with Cee-Lo Green and His Perfect Imperfections in 2002 and Cee-Lo Green... Is the Soul Machine in 2004, but his voice was always too big for any one box: a gospel-soaked wail that could rap, croon and shout the house down.
In 2003 he teamed up with producer Danger Mouse as Gnarls Barkley, and their 2006 single "Crazy" went everywhere, soul melodrama with a cinematic sweep. Then, in 2010, came The Lady Killer and "Fuck You", known on the radio as "Forget You": a gleeful, stomping Motown-style kiss-off, all sunny horns and handclaps wrapped around a bitter-sweet grudge. It became his biggest solo hit and won Best Urban/Alternative Performance at the 53rd Grammys.
He spent 2011 to 2013 as a coach on The Voice, voiced a mummy in Hotel Transylvania, and has kept releasing solo records and Goodie Mob reunions since. Five Grammys sit on his shelf.
