I actually checked them out earlier today and was not very impressed. The single is quite good, but I should have known better, b/c I've never been too big on Cee-Lo.

There really isn't too much similar in the US to them. They're not topping any charts over here, but they are catching on a bit.

I like the single, as hookers said, but the rest of the stuff really doesn't do it for me.

America doesn`t really do pop so I can`t see them being that big over there.

pop? this is soul, r'n'b, hip hop and dance....i still don't see how anyone can dislike the album if they like Crazy....

Mainstream america does not have good taste in music. This will catch on big with magazines like Spin and such, but I have a hard time seeing them making it to the top of the charts (in the US)

There is a small bit about them in the new issue of Time. And there is one about those satanist nazis known as Red Hot Chili Peppers too.

I think they will catch on here, I can easily see two or three songs going big. Has Crazy broken out yet in the US? I'm so out of touch with all that so I wouldn't know.

I haven't listened to the radio or watched any musical television in a while, I really couldn't tell you. I have been out of touch with the mainstream music ever since I got the cable disconnected from my room

Oh how I miss MTV and day long marathons of Room Raiders

well, i would say they have potential to top the US charts too...but the album has been out in the US for some time now i think....
