Because both Danger Mouse and Cee-Lo are bad motherfuckers. Go listen to the Danger Mouse & Daniele Luppi album called "Rome." Features Norah Jones nad Jack White and its very spaghetti western sounding.

And old school Goodie Mob is the shit. When I was younger I dug on Cee-Lo's first solo album too.

And the Danger Mouse mashup of Jay Z and the Beatles White Album (The Grey Album) was pretty damn cool too.

Proof that pop, hip-hop, and anything on the continuum between the two can actually be smart and musical.
"If there was only a way that I couldn't even any less than I already can't then I'd gladly not, but I think I've entered some quantum paradox, dark matter levels of can't evening where the total absolute value of not evenness exceeds all ability to explain the can'ting." - MR RUBATO
