@@Miscellaneous_master I think that has to do with Chris brown being more conventionally attractive so people can look past his misdeeds more so than a fatter darker man.
@@imbored1989 I believe that canceling only works if the person leaves after the initial backlash if they have money, fame, and a headstrong fandom like Jeffree Star they're almost immovable.
He went more behind the scenes as well as He was doing that in the beginning but decided to pursue it full time, He still is getting Royalties from Beyoncé etc
While no act of violence against any sex or race is ok, that is just merchandising and it is still done to this day in ways your small mind cant even realize. Stop asking for attention and go do something productive.
i don’t think he’s a novelty act. he’s like a real abstract, avant-garde soulful artist. he kind of reminds me of André 3000 in that sense. he had a few mainstream hits which might sound poppy and novelty but he has some very strange and jazzy songs out there too
I mean I get what you’re saying and I don’t think he’s a novelty, but he’s also not some avant garde artist either. Simply because his other material is outside of the mainstream pop diet doesn’t necessarily mean it’s some wild experimental music.
Doubt it, TLC barely got paid for it. Royalties back then we’re almost never given- they’d pay a set fee and the rake in hella money while the ones who actually did the work got next to nothing
Video Idea: How Zara Larsson ended her own career. Zara recently released her sophomore international album and it debuted only at #140 or something, which is really bad considering she had a lot of promo. For me, she ended her career by her low work ethic and her bad label. Lush live was released in 2015, but her album dropped 2 years later. And after that she waited another 4 years to release an album. You can't do that as a newcomer
I was disappointed her recent album didn't do as good as so good. I was wondering why she didn't become the next big thing considering she had good hits.
@@blueisblue599 Same over here! I actually do think the album contains good songs but it's not up to what you would expect after going on a four year hiatus. It's so unfortunate because Zara is one of the best performers out there.
its def not her low work ethic, she’s a rly hard worker and is constantly in the studio. it’s entirely her label aka epic records. anyone who’s a fan of any artist under that label knows how ASS that label is. super unfortunate since her new album is soooo freaking good
My girl and I used to watch The Voice on the regular back then. She was the big fan, I was low key crushing on Miss Aguilera. One time I referred to Cee-lo as the Cocoa Marshmallow.

Wow I feel so dumb I thought CeeLo Green and Gnarls Barkley were two separate artist like I remember me and my coworker having a full out conversation/argument about who sang the song crazy cause I said that it was ceelo and they’re like no it’s not it’s Barkley and I went along with it because I thought it was two separate artist long behold it’s same freaking person wow my mind is so blown right now.

DJ Danger Mouse has been around sort of behind the scenes for SO long! Ya’ll remember The Grey Album? He mixed every song on The Beatles’ White Album with every song on Jay-Z’s Black Album and it was incredible! That came out back in ‘04!
Is he high? You can’t do sexual shit to an unconscious person and then say it’s not rape. Consent is everything. An unconscious person isn’t consenting, that’s straight up rape🤦♀️ Christ he didn’t even have the decency to apologize and accept that people didn’t take it out of context, he was completely wrong.
Ikr that reply was so obviously made out of fear cause he got caught admitting he did horrible shit 🙄 I truly feel terrible for the women he was ever involved with
Damn, hate how people ruin their own careers especially when they're talented. Ceelo was an amazing voice and personality. The song crazy was as the title suggested "Crazy". Yoy couldn't escape the song. It was everywhere. Everybody loved it.You could sing along and dance to it. It was powerful and cameout at the right time🔥
I stopped listening to him when I read an article about the assault that quoted him saying her being passed out in his presence was her consent. He felt no remorse. He’s a disgusting person. 🙄 he can stay gone 🤷🏽♀️
@@ef1112 I didn’t see anything negative like that in his personal life in the beginning. I won’t support an artist by consuming their content if I don’t support what that artist stands for. There’s nothing confusing about it. I’m not going to contribute to the pocket of someone that has no respect for women, just like R Kelly. Ppl show you who they are eventually IF you’re paying attention. It’s then your choice what you want to do with that information. Simple.
@@Brittlesmith Support is a huge word coming from people like you.How many of his CDs have you bought in order for you to say you supported him? When will people like you get out of their pink bubble and realize artists are not Marvel superheroes? They are normal human beings that make mistakes.. just like you.All that assuming he was found guilty.. which wasn't even the case.
@@ef1112 you don’t know anything about me other than I won’t purchase his music. I know celebrities are human. That doesn’t mean that I have to support the ones I don’t agree with. It really doesn’t matter if he was found guilty. He straight up said that it is ok to force your sexual attentions on an unconscious person who cannot consent. That’s rape. There’s no contesting that. He said he was perfectly okay with raping an unconscious person. I will not support that. I won’t buy tickets to his concert. I won’t purchase his cds and I won’t stream his music. Sure I’m just one person but I’m sure there are other ppl who feel the same that will not spend money on him. You don’t have to understand it. If you’re fine consuming his music and contributing to his paycheck despite his views then that’s your choice. I made mine. You don’t have to agree.
Only things I knew about Ceelo were his fuck you song, his feature on a Mac Miller song, and him showing up as a gold robot to the Grammys that one year
Does anybody remember Gettin' Grown? When I was 12 or 13 it came out and I loved it! Amerie came out the same summer. Someone said music really is the closest thing to a time machine we will ever have.
@Flocxs - no they told the truth. How you look matters when it comes to certain allegations. The only people who are cancelled is those who are no longer profitable or never were. The industry has people who can ‘fix’ certain situations. Please don’t believe Twitter people hold that much power
Bright lights bigger city is such a timeless banger... But this dude's Twitter apology goes out in history as one of the worst internet apologies of all time... Jesus.
@@oldcrow6752 not everybody talented has to be jerk. Its not a norm and it should not be presented that way, because we will have blind eye on this problematic behaviour because they are talented. They also represent and have influence on People. And there are many very talented and smart artists but they are not pushed because being controversial sells records... But thats another story 🙂
@@mrsx7944 no it is not. Its because people created that thing that celebrities can do anything, so they are just big headed. So you want to tell me that its ok that some of the artists are jerks? If yes, then why people hate so much on regular people for exact same thing?...
Glad you did this video! Always wondered what happened with him...I've known about him since his time in goodie mob and always liked his music...loved gems like fool for you, sometimes, base head jazz and closet freak....very talented dude but always seemed like a dude with a attitude problem to me.
Honest, but not truthful. Cee Lo has preserved his freedom and his talent. HE owns HIMSELF- that is why you say he ruined his solo career. Just saw him perform a concert in 2022 and he still is one of the best, polarizing voices of our time. Continue being Honest (but not truthful)
He may be incredibly talented, but I think once someone has such harmful views and committed SA on people, they shouldn't be allowed back into stardom *especially* since his tweets make it crystal clear that he had no regrets and was asking for forgiveness, not truly apologising to the women he harmed. Let's give a platform to people who are talented and actually deserve it instead
I live in a small town where CeeLo also resides, CeeLo is kinda like Bigfoot here. Everyone has a story of seeing him but no one has any pictures. Everyone knows where his house is, but no one’s seen a car in the driveway. CeeLo does live here he’s talked about it many times. Hopefully one day Ill see the bald headed brash bard too.
the fact that he can openly say something like "the ladykiller became the ladykiller bc he got his heart broken" is disgusting. Something that happens all the time in real life and it's not taken nearly as seriously as it should be, precisely bc it's normalized and romanticized all the time by ppl like him.
So disingenuous. I'm not trying to come at you, but give the man the benefit of the doubt. He's not condoning actual 'lady killers.' Christ. I get this is the internet and I'm about to be surrounded by the speech police but comments like this makes me wonder how people speak in private nowadays. Ever said anything funny but horrible, knowing that no one around you actually believed you meant it? Imagine someone thought you meant every word, and chose to define you with that for the rest of your life.
@@joebrown6778 He didn't make a passing comment around a small group of friends. He named an entire piece of work based on the concept of killing women, and he knows he has a platform, he was hoping for it to get attention. So no, no benefit of the doubt, I don't condone the normalization of violence against women. I hope he grows and unlearns the misogyny.
@@veronicavdelgado9061 There's a movie called Promising Young Woman that released recently. I can't wait to watch it, but from what I gather the protagonist goes around killing predatory men. And I don't think I'll walk away from that movie believing the director obviously condones that kind of violence. Are 'The Killers' sympathetic to actual killers? If we (I include myself) want women's rights to be taken seriously, we should promote serious arguments for it. This isn't that.
@@oh.hey.2045 1. How would that offend me? 2.If you seriously believe murder (as defined by law) is acceptable, you're the one with the problem. Not me. We have a criminal justice system for a reason, imperfect as it may be. 3. And now because of your comment you've got me defending rapists. This is the part where I look overly sympathetic to rapists because I can see how murdering them in cold blood is problematic to say the least. And it hasn't escaped my notice that you didn't engage my main argument at all. Btw, can't help but notice your avatar so I don't think it's a stretch to guess you know Light from Death Note. Your comment brought him to mind. I'll let you guess if that's a compliment.
Arguing if someone remembering if something happened doesn’t imply he thinks rape is ok or that he did. I think he believed that someone will know if something happened even if they black thinking a raped person knows and would report it in reference to his trial where the woman admitted to waking up and hanging out with for another 24 hours at least. And the the if someone is with you consciously it’s consent meaning an awake person who is willing there it’s consent. I think he just said it like a moron when fighting with people on twitter as the comments were clearly mistyped.
He is. You can tell by how he mispronounced St. Elsewhere that he’s probably never listened to CeeLo. The script was written for him by someone else. Very common with TH-camrs.
@@thejoker-wu1sp Not if you actually listen to the album. It’s spoken in the songs. I’d excuse someone for not knowing what the name is referring to (an old TV show that popularized the “it was all a dream trope”) but him not knowing how to pronounce it and yet speaking like he’s super familiar with his work tells me he didn’t write this.
My favorite song by Ceelo (and the Goodie Mob) is my anthem - "Fight to Win" and his true genius was proven in his spoken work piece "Sometimes". Then again, Bro is his own worst enemy because he's too all over the place without being truly spiritually grounded. Yet Bro is definitely an Omo Esu (Child of Esu)!
I carried him out of a club when he was drunk after a show in 2003 when I was a bouncer. Sloppy drunk. He needed help and I'm pretty sure he drove after.
I disagree with the sentiment that this man's talent is a novelty. I just found out today that he sang the song Crazy, a timeless masterpiece. I thought he had a nice voice but only remembered him from the F-you song. This man is extremely talented!
@@mchanel. r kelly is not a good example as he was bad before music and you can here is in his music how bad he was. same goes for chris brown he was bad before the music he just got fully exposed when he punched whats her name

@@TheNinjapancake14 Oh wow! I hadn’t heard that but I just googled it! I’m definitely going to give that a listen. I love both those artists!!
@Luke yeah he’s actually pretty prolific considering how behinds the scenes he seems to be.
@Miles Prower I haven’t heard that! I’ll check it out!
Danger Doom
He’s so compounded and short with little tiny hands
Cartoon supervillain 🤣
I heard was in SPED classes in school
Like a Lego Duplo character
ooo t-rex tease✨
He reminds me of Big Ed from 90 Day Fiancé
2:20 Street Elsewhere? I'm pretty sure it's "Saint Elsewhere," after an 80's medical drama of the same name.
*Edited to add time stamp*
I thought so too
"my apologies that you felt offended by me saying that if you're not conscious then it's not rape, it was out of context"
Is he high? You can’t do sexual shit to an unconscious person and then say it’s not rape. Consent is everything. An unconscious person isn’t consenting, that’s straight up rape🤦♀️ Christ he didn’t even have the decency to apologize and accept that people didn’t take it out of context, he was completely wrong.
Ikr that reply was so obviously made out of fear cause he got caught admitting he did horrible shit 🙄 I truly feel terrible for the women he was ever involved with
Can we really say ceelo destroyed his career when in reality he far exceeded his career expectations in the first place?
well he definitely tanked his image
Lmfaoooooo
@@animal1nstinct394 Wow people hate an abuser? How terrible!
@@animal1nstinct394 lol as a feminist I ageee but he will die in a bad light so we aren’t too mad 😂🤷🏽♀️
@@animal1nstinct394 Feminism has nothing to do with this...
He "apologized" for people taking his tweets exactly how he presented them. What a clown 😄
🤣💀
Damn, hate how people ruin their own careers especially when they're talented. Ceelo was an amazing voice and personality. The song crazy was as the title suggested "Crazy". Yoy couldn't escape the song. It was everywhere. Everybody loved it.You could sing along and dance to it. It was powerful and cameout at the right time🔥
I stopped listening to him when I read an article about the assault that quoted him saying her being passed out in his presence was her consent. He felt no remorse. He’s a disgusting person. 🙄 he can stay gone 🤷🏽♀️
Disgusting guy but crazy musical talent. What a waste
So did you listen to him because of his personal life in the beginning? I can't understand people like you no matter how hard I'd try.
@@ef1112 I didn’t see anything negative like that in his personal life in the beginning. I won’t support an artist by consuming their content if I don’t support what that artist stands for. There’s nothing confusing about it. I’m not going to contribute to the pocket of someone that has no respect for women, just like R Kelly. Ppl show you who they are eventually IF you’re paying attention. It’s then your choice what you want to do with that information. Simple.
@@Brittlesmith Support is a huge word coming from people like you.How many of his CDs have you bought in order for you to say you supported him? When will people like you get out of their pink bubble and realize artists are not Marvel superheroes? They are normal human beings that make mistakes.. just like you.All that assuming he was found guilty.. which wasn't even the case.
@@ef1112 you don’t know anything about me other than I won’t purchase his music. I know celebrities are human. That doesn’t mean that I have to support the ones I don’t agree with. It really doesn’t matter if he was found guilty. He straight up said that it is ok to force your sexual attentions on an unconscious person who cannot consent. That’s rape. There’s no contesting that. He said he was perfectly okay with raping an unconscious person. I will not support that. I won’t buy tickets to his concert. I won’t purchase his cds and I won’t stream his music. Sure I’m just one person but I’m sure there are other ppl who feel the same that will not spend money on him. You don’t have to understand it. If you’re fine consuming his music and contributing to his paycheck despite his views then that’s your choice. I made mine. You don’t have to agree.
He gives me the creeps.
Always. Something about him seems "off".
You should do one on why Ne-Yo's career flatlined after like 2012
Absolutely! Because he been struggling since
His comments are disgusting. He doesnt deserve a plateform anymore. Bye 🤝
😂 “bye” okay
I was today years old when I learned that Gnarles Barkley was a duo featuring CeeLo Green and not one person
Who else thought of the Family Guy cutaway of Ceelo trying to find pants? “'Yeah I need to find something a cartoon apple would wear'”😂🤣🍎🍏
Only things I knew about Ceelo were his fuck you song, his feature on a Mac Miller song, and him showing up as a gold robot to the Grammys that one year
Check out outkast git up, git out, and anything from goodie mob. Dude was the hook, he held all them together in a song.
Does anybody remember Gettin' Grown? When I was 12 or 13 it came out and I loved it! Amerie came out the same summer. Someone said music really is the closest thing to a time machine we will ever have.
this man has classics still. crazy is an undeniable one and still holds till this day.
Cee Lo is an amazingly talented artist and one of my favorite lyricists, but his ego is his own worst enemy
That golden Grammy outfit destroyed his career
He's weird in the worst way
his eyes say it all
Dang this channel shows me how truly hard it is to be a long-lasting music act. Usher, T- Swift and Justin Beiber to name a few are really anomalies
His voice is like it was plucked from the 1940s
I love it
Huh? what singers from the ‘40’s does he sound like? Lol
More 70sish
he and xtina was the real deal on the voice
Horns effect. Had someone attractive done what he did, I promise it would have panned out differently. The sexier the human the longer the leash.
Asking for permition to use that line 🙏
For example Chris brown
@Flocxs - no they told the truth. How you look matters when it comes to certain allegations.
The only people who are cancelled is those who are no longer profitable or never were.
The industry has people who can ‘fix’ certain situations. Please don’t believe Twitter people hold that much power
@@mssha1980 That's true.
Sheesh, I didn’t know any of that... RIP to his career, I guess
Bright lights bigger city is such a timeless banger... But this dude's Twitter apology goes out in history as one of the worst internet apologies of all time... Jesus.
Nice profile pic 🥰🥰
ceelo is and always will be one of the best voices out there...
He is that kind of talented person with horrible personality 🤷♂️
Like pretty much everyone with talent
@@oldcrow6752 not everybody talented has to be jerk. Its not a norm and it should not be presented that way, because we will have blind eye on this problematic behaviour because they are talented. They also represent and have influence on People. And there are many very talented and smart artists but they are not pushed because being controversial sells records... But thats another story 🙂
why is cee lo supposed to have a horrible personality?
@@mojttoofficial1399 you sound like a whiner. Most artists are troubled ppl with messed up personalities. That's just a fact.
@@mrsx7944 no it is not. Its because people created that thing that celebrities can do anything, so they are just big headed. So you want to tell me that its ok that some of the artists are jerks? If yes, then why people hate so much on regular people for exact same thing?...
your voice is giving me “NUMBER 15, BURGERKING FOOTLETUCE” vibes bro
when I hear Ceelo I think of his American Dad Episode 😭
Me too😭
Melanies cover of crazy 😜
Lmfaoooo
That's my favorite episode
Glad you did this video! Always wondered what happened with him...I've known about him since his time in goodie mob and always liked his music...loved gems like fool for you, sometimes, base head jazz and closet freak....very talented dude but always seemed like a dude with a attitude problem to me.
Honest, but not truthful. Cee Lo has preserved his freedom and his talent. HE owns HIMSELF- that is why you say he ruined his solo career. Just saw him perform a concert in 2022 and he still is one of the best, polarizing voices of our time. Continue being Honest (but not truthful)
He may be incredibly talented, but I think once someone has such harmful views and committed SA on people, they shouldn't be allowed back into stardom *especially* since his tweets make it crystal clear that he had no regrets and was asking for forgiveness, not truly apologising to the women he harmed. Let's give a platform to people who are talented and actually deserve it instead
You end all of your sentences like the mastercard heir in Family Guy when he laughs.
the fried voice up talk is killin me 😂
”I apologize for my tweets being taken out of context” is like saying ”I apologize for my finger deciding to pull the trigger”.
At the end of each sentence, you extend every word “dontchaaaa, albummmm”
Vocal fryyyyy
I live in a small town where CeeLo also resides, CeeLo is kinda like Bigfoot here. Everyone has a story of seeing him but no one has any pictures. Everyone knows where his house is, but no one’s seen a car in the driveway. CeeLo does live here he’s talked about it many times. Hopefully one day Ill see the bald headed brash bard too.
Love your videos! Very well researched and executed. By the way "St." is short for "Saint" as in the movie "St. Elsewhere."
I'm glad you pointed this out nicely, I was gonna be all snarky about it like 'oh myy gaawd this man just said Street Elsewhere help me loord'
@@squanchy666 🤣🤣🤣
Is no one gonna talk about how the narrator drags his words out?
Funfact: He also sings Background On TLC's hit Waterfalls
the fact that he can openly say something like "the ladykiller became the ladykiller bc he got his heart broken" is disgusting. Something that happens all the time in real life and it's not taken nearly as seriously as it should be, precisely bc it's normalized and romanticized all the time by ppl like him.
So disingenuous. I'm not trying to come at you, but give the man the benefit of the doubt. He's not condoning actual 'lady killers.' Christ.
I get this is the internet and I'm about to be surrounded by the speech police but comments like this makes me wonder how people speak in private nowadays. Ever said anything funny but horrible, knowing that no one around you actually believed you meant it? Imagine someone thought you meant every word, and chose to define you with that for the rest of your life.
@@joebrown6778 He didn't make a passing comment around a small group of friends. He named an entire piece of work based on the concept of killing women, and he knows he has a platform, he was hoping for it to get attention. So no, no benefit of the doubt, I don't condone the normalization of violence against women. I hope he grows and unlearns the misogyny.
@@veronicavdelgado9061 There's a movie called Promising Young Woman that released recently. I can't wait to watch it, but from what I gather the protagonist goes around killing predatory men.
And I don't think I'll walk away from that movie believing the director obviously condones that kind of violence. Are 'The Killers' sympathetic to actual killers?
If we (I include myself) want women's rights to be taken seriously, we should promote serious arguments for it. This isn't that.
@@joebrown6778 no offense but killing rapist is different than killing because someone broke up with you
@@oh.hey.2045 1. How would that offend me?
2.If you seriously believe murder (as defined by law) is acceptable, you're the one with the problem. Not me. We have a criminal justice system for a reason, imperfect as it may be.
3. And now because of your comment you've got me defending rapists. This is the part where I look overly sympathetic to rapists because I can see how murdering them in cold blood is problematic to say the least. And it hasn't escaped my notice that you didn't engage my main argument at all.
Btw, can't help but notice your avatar so I don't think it's a stretch to guess you know Light from Death Note. Your comment brought him to mind. I'll let you guess if that's a compliment.
Good job enunciating. Try not to drag the end of every phrase.
Arguing if someone remembering if something happened doesn’t imply he thinks rape is ok or that he did. I think he believed that someone will know if something happened even if they black thinking a raped person knows and would report it in reference to his trial where the woman admitted to waking up and hanging out with for another 24 hours at least. And the the if someone is with you consciously it’s consent meaning an awake person who is willing there it’s consent. I think he just said it like a moron when fighting with people on twitter as the comments were clearly mistyped.
Can you do what happened to Rixton?
Yesssss please!!!!!
I know Ceelo from Goodie Mob.
this guy talks like hes reading an auto generated script
He is. You can tell by how he mispronounced St. Elsewhere that he’s probably never listened to CeeLo. The script was written for him by someone else. Very common with TH-camrs.
No offense to the guy but he might want to take a speech class or something. He has very awkward delivery.
He said "street elsewhere " instead of "saint elsewhere " guess that st can throw some off...
@@thejoker-wu1sp
Not if you actually listen to the album. It’s spoken in the songs. I’d excuse someone for not knowing what the name is referring to (an old TV show that popularized the “it was all a dream trope”) but him not knowing how to pronounce it and yet speaking like he’s super familiar with his work tells me he didn’t write this.
@@alexandermckay9521 but its still saint elsewhere not street and that sounds crazy like when white people call 2pac two pack lol.
I love how "Don't cha" sounds so much like "Fuck U" :P
Good vid but why the upward inflection in every sentence?
Shit. Wondered what happened to this man. Had no idea he had these controversies. Favorite song from him is Transformer with his Gnarls Barkley group.
Damn I wonder how it would’ve sounded if The Pussycat Dolls did the song “Crazy”
My favorite song by Ceelo (and the Goodie Mob) is my anthem - "Fight to Win" and his true genius was proven in his spoken work piece "Sometimes". Then again, Bro is his own worst enemy because he's too all over the place without being truly spiritually grounded. Yet Bro is definitely an Omo Esu (Child of Esu)!
i remember him from the voice lmao
Who tf disliked it he just posted it
@Margret Stop spamming
It’s like the character Rollo goodlove that Ceelo voiced in the boondocks was him just being himself lol
Only reason I still remember CeeLo is for his outkast features and his features on doo-wops and MOTM2
are you talking about "Doo Wops and Hooligans'"? and btw, what is MOTM2
@@marshayas3494 clearly someone has too much time during the day💀💀
You should make a video on Jennifer Hudson or Aaliyah next
The tweet doesnt say "passed out implies consent." It says "they're only consenting if they're _consciously_ WITH you."
I carried him out of a club when he was drunk after a show in 2003 when I was a bouncer. Sloppy drunk. He needed help and I'm pretty sure he drove after.
He's the tallest dwarf I've ever seen.
I forgot he existed, then he appeared on igor.
Where on Igor???
@@chatman4998 background vocals in gone gone
@@ax1338 omggg I didn’t even notice
The shooketh was that Forget You came out after Crazy. I have always thought it was the other way around 😳
*reads titles*
*laughs maniacally*
I disagree with the sentiment that this man's talent is a novelty. I just found out today that he sang the song Crazy, a timeless masterpiece. I thought he had a nice voice but only remembered him from the F-you song. This man is extremely talented!
ST=Saint in this application my guy.
Came here to say this.
Holy shit, I wasn’t expecting this to take such a dark turn
It’s a shame because Crazy is one of my all time favourite songs. Sometimes you just have to separate the music from the artist.
same with film and TH-cam sometimes. everything and everyone can go bad at any time to me it's human nature to go back to primal instincts.
No r kelly supporter🤮
@@mchanel. r kelly is not a good example as he was bad before music and you can here is in his music how bad he was. same goes for chris brown he was bad before the music he just got fully exposed when he punched whats her name
@@Suno-ta-sei Rihanna, like she's the most recognizable name in the world right now..
I remember his daughter was on “My Super Sweet 16”
He was also Stan's hot tub on American Dad.
