In a review (which I cannot find for the life of me) of their first album, I referred to them as Roots lite or something like that. Not dissin' like you said, it's just how I saw them. I liked their first, went to see their live show, thoroughly enjoyed it, but I have yet to get into the second and I haven't even gotten to the third yet. And Cee-lo's steez is severely underrated. I was listening to the Dungeon Fam album recently and was thinkin dayum. This cat is nicer than I thought. And I ahve most of the Dungeon Fam's albums.
