CeeLo Spits Gospel On A Rap Song (1997)
CeeLo’s guest appearance on Outkast’s 1997 single “In Due Time” gave many of us a glimpse into the artist he was bound to become. He saaaaaang the hook to set the tone for the record and delivered a rap verse that used a Gospel music-like cadence. If you were to take his vocals and put it over a church organ, it would become a standard your choir would perform at Sunday service.
