"Gettin Grown" was nominated for the 2003 Grammy Awards for Best Urban/Alternative Performance.
Goodie Mob alumnus Cee Lo Green brings his solo debut, which is chock full of the smart rhymes, clever wordplay, and churchy singing skills that lift him above the pack. He states his case from the outset with the sardonic "Bad Mutha," a George Clinton-meets Richard Pryor deconstruction of the more macho side of rap, and rapidly moves through "Big Ole Words" ("how can there be a now if there never was a then/that is just like a yang without a yin") which despite his comic Dylanesque vocal is actually a Zen-like meditation on death and eternity. The Rick James-inspired "Closet Freak" (not so much about being a freak as about being unique), displaying a rapid-fire delivery and distributing some razor-sharp wit along the way. Green's hip-hop world is Technicolor as opposed to the black and white of many of his peers, and while first impressions may be of a clownish prankster with a case of the too-smarts, there's an underlying depth to his material that'll repay repeated listens with interest.

4 discs out of 5 - ...Cee-Lo is Southern soul personified. The rhymes, the gospel, the music, the melodies - they run in his blood. He was born to do it. And he does it well.
