Goodie Mob - Fight to Win
Artist: Goodie Mob
Featuring: Cee-Lo Green
Producer: Rico Wade
Album: Age Against the Machine
Label: Atlantic Records
While most will undoubtedly agree that it’s been dope to watch ATL eccentric Cee-Lo Green ascend to the highest echelon of pop success over the last couple years, one question has remained on the lips of Dungeon Family devotees through it all: when is Goodie Mob going to start releasing new music again? Well, I’m happy to say that day has finally come; premiered yesterday on NBC’s The Voice, new single Fight to Win marks the beloved Southern quartet’s official return to the game after about eight years on hiatus. Rather than returning to the classic Goodie sound, though, the crew have retooled their style for maximum pop appeal—in fact, the record wouldn’t sound terribly out of place on a Cee-Lo solo effort. Here, produce Rico Wade‘s bombastic, keyboard boardwork sets the stage for towering inspirational verses from Mr. Calloway. Big Gipp, Khujo and T-Mos take center stage during the record’s majestic speed-soul climax, delivering declamatory bars through a soup of studio effects. So, does this single bode well for the 2012 incarnation of Goodie Mobb? Debate away—and keep it locked for further news and tunes leading up to the yet-unscheduled arrival of the group’s Age Against the Machine LP.

This sounds nothing like the Goodie Mob I grew up listening to, but I understand that in today's age - after Cee Lo's pop explosion on a mainstream level - this was the only way we'd get the band back together. And I cannot front, this is excellent.

New Goodie Mob? I agree with Z that it doesn't sound like their old sound, but this is still dope.

Yeah, this is clown shoes. Cee Lo singing with Goodie Mob standing around. This isn't the Goodie Mob that was part of the Dungeon Family. Ask Andre or Big Boi what they think of this.

I loved this. I've been preparing myself for this moment for a while now. I knew to let go of what I knew GOODIE MOB to be 10+ years ago. It's only natural for them to have evolved. I feel this is very ADULT HIP HOP. I am knocking on 30, and this is the kind of HIP HOP that caters to me. It feels good and it's inspirational. And I'm glad that it can co-exist with who Ceelo is as a solo artist, that can only mean big things for the group. Hurry up with the album, so ya'll can hit the road. S/O to RICO WADE's Production, I'm glad he produced the first cut. I feel home. DF SALUTE!!

Where is the rest of Goodie Mob? I'm extremely disappointed... All I can get from this cut is that Cee-Lo is looking for another market that he lost out on once he became a pop super hero. Anything post Cee-Lo Green the Soul Machine isn't "hip-hop" it is all pop... call it Dungeon Family if you want, but that doesn't make it DF.
SO SO disappointed. +1 to what Andre and Big Boi would say haha |

He could have atleast rapped... I mean come on!!!! And how is the band together? This cut is solely made of Cee Lo with one line from 1 other member of GM. So terrible....
