Gnarls Barkley's Final Album

The duo's debut album, *St. Elsewhere*, released in 2006, was a massive critical and commercial success, reaching number four on the US Billboard 200. The lead single, "Crazy," became a global phenomenon, topping the charts in the UK and reaching number two in the United States. It created a unique legacy by becoming the first UK number-one single based on digital download sales alone. Their second album, *The Odd Couple*, followed in 2008 and, despite being stylistically similar to their debut, it did not achieve the same level of commercial success. The album was leaked online before its official release, which prompted the duo to move up its release date. After this album, the duo went on an extended 18-year hiatus. During the long break, both artists pursued successful solo careers. CeeLo Green released several solo albums, including the 2010 hit "The Lady Killer," which featured the worldwide smash "F**k You". He also served as a coach on the popular reality television singing competition *The Voice*. Danger Mouse (Brian Burton) solidified his reputation as a highly sought-after producer, working with a wide range of acclaimed artists. His production credits include work for Gorillaz on their album *Demon Days*, as well as albums for The Black Keys, Beck, and Adele, earning him multiple Grammy Awards. He also formed the band Broken Bells with James Mercer of The Shins. The new album, *Atlanta*, is named after the city where both artists have roots. CeeLo Green was born in Atlanta and was part of the Southern hip-hop group Goodie Mob, while Danger Mouse spent his adolescence and college years there. The lead single from their final album, "Pictures," is inspired by CeeLo Green's childhood experiences riding Atlanta's public train system, the MARTA. Green has said the song represents a "full circle moment" and a return to the spirit of self-discovery that has always been at the core of Gnarls Barkley's music.
