CeeLo hasn’t been too active with music this year aside from dropping a remix over Childish Gambino’s hit ‘Redbone’. But he’s now back with all seriousness with a brand new song ‘Brick Road (Cookin Up)’.
This is definitely one of the strongest tracks that the talented singer-songwriter-rapper has released in a while. “Cooking up is a process, and it’s also a recipe,” he tells DJ Booth. “It’s not fast food, it’s a delicacy. I wanted to write something relative for the here and now, and let people know I’m coming from the curb, and I’m talking from the turf.”
The track is off his upcoming mixtape titled Songbirds which should be impacting in the coming weeks. Along with the track, CeeLo has also announced that he’s back in the studio recording with Danger Mouse for a new Gnarls Barkley album. They have already finished half of the new album, the follow up to 2008’s The Odd Couple which featured the smash hit ‘Crazy‘. “We have already started on a new [Gnarls Barkley] album,” Green reveals. “We’re halfway in and we have some overtures from the other projects that may not have stood the test of time, we don’t know yet.”
They plan to meet top of 2018 to finish rest of the LP. Until then, stream ‘Brick Road (Cookin Up)’ below.
