Cee-Lo Green - Bridges
Artist: Cee-Lo Green
Producer: The Neptunes
Album: It’s OK EP
Label: Elektra/RRP
Cee-Lo Green just doesn’t quit, does he? Not satisfied with conquering the rap and soul games, the Goodie Mob alum-turned F*ck You hitmaker has found a new mission: to bring peace and harmony to the entire human race. A tall order? Damn straight. But Bridges, a Lady Killer outtake repurposed as the B-Side to new single/EP It’s OK is a promising start. Superproducers The Neptunes work their magic behind the boards, serving up psychedelically spacey blend of vintage-soul guitar riffs, synth-bass and near-whispered backing vocals as Cee-Lo outlines his plan for global unity: “I wanna be the bridge between every sister and brother, father and mother, friend and lover, black, white and other.” Of course, he can’t do it all by himself—we’re all gonna have to roll up our sleeves and get to work, uh, building bridges out of him. Metaphorically speaking. Anyway, if Bridges gives you hope for the human race (or just gets your head nodding), you can expect plenty more freshness on Cee-Lo Green’s digital-only It’s OK EP, available now via iTunes.

Cee-Lo could cough-up a Slurpee in the studio while the red record button is pressed and end up pressing up the moment as a digital single - that would sell. "Bridges" is much better than that described-moment, but you get the idea...

like Z said, Cee-lo knows how to crank out solid tune after solid tune. I love his unique voice and style, and have always thought he was immensely talented. This track is quality, but not exceptional. His vocals are definitely the highlight.

If I met someone who was living under a rock in the middle of Afghanistan ask me who is Cee-Lo Green I would point them to this song. The theme, the vocals and the production embodies the man.

The Neptunes never cease to amaze me. Neither does the Lady Killer. Thinking back to Cell Therapy and realizing that this cat never steers us wrong.

This isn't the Cee-Lo i prefer. The Neptunes don't do him justice. I prefer he stick to the soul, this is just bad in my opinion

His voice is amazing and unmatched, everyone knows that, and he's made it perfectly clear by now.. but if you took out the vocals it all just sounds like someone came and took a dump in my speakers
