Song of the Week - Cee Lo

Cee Lo Green - F**k You
Album: The Lady Killer



Yes! I know this song is a couple months old now, but it’s just that good. Cee-Lo Green has rejuvenated the love of motown in this catchy song thanks to the plain comedic relief of the chorus. Though radio edits have tried to censor the song to “Forget you,” the full enjoyment of the song is lost in the lack of cursing. In fact, the blatant use of the F word is so overused that one would think the song would quickly lose its magic. But it doesn’t.

Cee-Lo Green is no stranger to the limelight. His hit song “Crazy” a one of the two member making Gnarls Barkley (the other being DJ Danger Mouse, a former Song of the Week nominee) topped many song charts for months. He’s also collaborated with Outkast, Puff Daddy, T.I., and pretty much every big name in the hip-hop industry.

At first, this song seems like a short lived pick me up song, but months after its release, the song is still just as catchy and enjoyable as it was several months ago. Don’t be shy to hit repeat.

What a great song to start the year!
