Talk:CeeLo Green - Knowledge (XXG)

Cee Lo was just on Chelsea Lately and specifically said he does not have a brother, he has a sister. There is no citation attributed to the sentence I quoted either. Seems like this sentence should be removed unless someone can cite a source. 1538:

Good work! Probably don't need a subcategory, the search function finds both forms. The articles themselves (not the category) should match the historical record. If the albums are "Cee-Lo", then match the album wording. One problem is that international reviews still use "Cee-Lo", while U.S. reviews

931:

There is a new article on visionary mag quoting the blender article. The removal of the blender article (and no other article from 2006) is also noteworthy. I added in the sociopathic quotes from the visionary article. Just because cee-lo is getting the articles removed from the internet doesn't mean

605:

There are some inconsistencies with the article. Soul Food dropped in November of 1995, at which point His mother was still alive. On "Guess Who" Cee Lo talks about how she's talking so he knows she's going to walk again. Also, in Rolling Stones he talks about how she got into the accident while they

2549:

I think it needs it's own section. He has now pleaded no contest to one of the charges so, at the very least, that part needs to be changed in the personal section. Here is just one of the many news links showing "no contest" which is far different than "not guilty" as stated in the personal section

1726:

I've just recently noticed that news sources began calling Green as CeeLo. Now, his official website , twitter and facebook etc have all been changed to "CeeLo" as well, and he has been credited in his new songs like "Only You" and "Hello" (T.I. song) as "CeeLo". Should this name change be reflected

2196:

change. The difference between CeeLo and Cee Lo is insignificant to virtually everyone but this discussion and (possibly) him, so we should bow to how the person spells their name. Richard M. Nixon's middle name is commonly spelled Milhouse, but he himself spelled it Milhous. Which one do we use on

2135:

So if Cee Lo (or CeeLo) decided to change his handle to Zebra Lotush Pringles, are we going to change the title to that? Our policy COMMONNAME already sets out clearly that we do not change the article name in accordance to artist's preference. Rather, "Knowledge (XXG) does not necessarily use the

3548:

sentiment I find it extremely weird that someone have tagged "CeeLo was in the movie XY" sourced with IMBD as "unreliable source". I mean, it's kind of obvious to check, one watch the movie and see that CeeLo is in it, listed in the actors list... Also I am not quite sure what kind of source the

721:

I just finished reading the article in the current Rolling Stone (Aug 2006) about Cee-Lo, that specifically said his 2 solo albums were commercial flops. I believe stating that he has "two successful solo LPs" is a complete misnomer, and needs to be removed, as they were far from successful, and

614:

If he was born in '74, and she was injured when he was 17, that would have marked the accident around 1991, and her death by 94, a year before the album was dropped with him talking about her still alive. Something isn't adding up, if the album was dedicated to her before it was released, there

subject's 'official' name as an article title; it prefers to use the name that is most frequently used to refer to the subject in English-language reliable sources." Cee Lo has clearly been better known as Cee Lo, and not CeeLo, throughout his established career. So Cee Lo it shall stay. ☯

2301:

But CeeLo himself spelling his name without the space makes it correct, as far as I'm concerned. If he pulled a Prince and asked to be known by some bizarre new name, I'd understand your hesitancy. But when the debate is over a space (or hyphen), I see no reason to not go along with him.

2572:

Final sentence of the section says "On October 21, 2013, Green substance after the Los Angeles District Attorney's Office declined to file a charge of rape of an intoxicated person, citing insufficient evidence." I would edit it, but I'm not sure what it is supposed to say

2104:

rules, but also because there is another added reason in this specific case: Google automatically adds up "Cee Lo" and "Cee-Lo" together - and that makes any attempt to make reliable judgement exclusively on the use of "Cee Lo" invalid. --Loginnigol 22:37, 30 September 2013

1052:

in my opinion, the main melody line of f you (forget you), which gets repeated over and over through cee lo green's hit song, sounds a lot like the main melody line from a 1969 single by Houston Texas group The Clique entitled I'll Hold Out My Hand. Just a coincidence?

633:

Is somewhat confusing, but the second to last page clearly reads "in memory of" and cee-lo's thank you's have R.I.P. after her name. so she had to have died sometime between the recording and the publishing, unless there's a reissued version of the CD

840: 3525:. I would not, from experience completely trust AllMusic, but I would when compared to the user-generated Songfacts. Would some editor, with more interest in the subject matter than I, care to investigate further ? Thanks. - 740:

who took an album and a few songs off of Cee-Lo featuring list, I have all of these songs and the album "dirty south classics" that's how I know they all exist. So please do not erase these songs or albums again. Thank you.

2250:

Because the middle name isn't in his article title? I used him as an example where sources are split nearly evenly on the spelling of his name, yet he clearly preferred the spelling that at first glance would seem more

1068:

not very close. just generic similarity to music from the era. hopefully, we will have some learned commentary on Green's melodies to add to the article. im absolutely amazed anyone is trying to write songs any

2020:, we see press referring to our lovable singer as "Cee Lo Green". This is contrary to what FilmFan claims about just mostly old sources using the name "Cee Lo" (with the space). A search for CeeLo Green yields 3119: 2374: 2465:

Exactly. When a source uses multiple varieties, including the correct one, then that correct version should automatically count for more by virtue of it being correct. --Loginnigol 16:57, 3 October 2013

706:

It is true, He was indeed born Thomas Burton. He explains in his book (and on Leno) that when his mother passed away he changed it to 'Calloway' (her maiden name). --Loginnigol 18:55, 29 September 2013
