Gnarls Barkley has quickly become the most<br />
colorful rap outfit in recent memory. The funloving<br />
Atlanta duo, comprised of<br />
producer/deejay Danger Mouse and<br />
rapper/singer Cee-Lo Green, are all about<br />
making vibrant music and performing on stage<br />
in funky costumes worn by characters in movies<br />
like Austin Powers and The Wizard of Oz. Aside<br />
from playing the role of international men of<br />
mystery and walking on the yellow brick road,<br />
they bumped into the Aphilliates as they<br />
traveled their journey to happy-go lucky, musical<br />
dominance. So, they toasted some<br />
marshmallows over an open fire and decided to<br />
put down a mixtape for a collaborative effort,<br />
thus making heads take A Trip to St. Elsewhere.<br />
Cee-Lo Green and Danger Mouse serve as<br />
excellent tour guides for St. Elsewhere and by<br />
the end of the trip, it's easy to understand why<br />
St. Elsewhere is perhaps the most<br />
underappreciated island within the Hip-Hop<br />
community. Unlike most rappers who spit about<br />
guns and drugs over the same recycled street<br />
beats, Gnarls Barkley goes outside of bubble<br />
and allows every song to have its own identity.<br />
From the urban gospel "Go to Church" to the<br />
emotional soul searching in "What It Is" featuring<br />
Scar, the gentleman of Gnarls consistently deliver<br />
quality music with versatile messages.<br />
The collaborations are just as terrific. The boys out<br />
Outkast join them on soulful "In Due Time" and the<br />
upbeat "Git Up Git Out." "Timbaland, the producer<br />
who helped bring sexy back, adds some heat to<br />
"I'll Be Around," while Jazze Pha and T.I. team up<br />
with the boys for a love song all club goers will<br />
enjoy, entitled "The One." Even when working with<br />
friends, Gnarls Barkley keeps their edge.<br />
What a wild, strange trip it has been to St.<br />
Elsewhere and what a great one at that. Other<br />
artists should use this mixtape as a guide on how<br />
to make their next projects more original.<br />
KEY SELLING POINTS:<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Featuring the smash single Crazy<br />
Gnarls Barkley remixes "Feel Good Inc." by the Gorillaz and while most remixes are<br />
played-out and poorly executed, they successfully pull this one off. They keep the<br />
original beat, hook and background vocals the Gorillaz record, and integrate their<br />
verses into the track<br />
Strong online marketing on lifestyle and hip-hop websites including banners, ads<br />
and contesting<br />
