The legendary CeeLo Green joins us for a profound conversation that travels deep into his spiritual journey, artistic evolution, and newfound mission as a healthcare advocate. With the wisdom that comes from turning 50, CeeLo reflects on his transformation from a self-described "destructive person" to becoming a voice for community wellness and purpose.
"Adversity is not your enemy. Adversity is a sparring partner," CeeLo shares, offering a perspective that reframes life's challenges as opportunities for growth. His poetic insights on mortality—"use your mortality as your motivation"—reveal an artist who has found deeper purpose beyond his musical accomplishments.
The Grammy-winning artist opens up about his spiritual awakening, describing himself as "a reincarnation of realist" and "a shaman for the spirit of soul" continuing the legacy of musical greats before him. This spiritual foundation drives his commitment to community service, particularly as the inaugural healthcare champion for the 100 Black Men of South Fulton. On September 20th at Old National Commons, CeeLo will help provide $20,000 worth of free health screenings, addressing the critical issue of preventable diseases in the Black community.
Music lovers will appreciate CeeLo's revelations about his creative process, musical influences from James Brown to Jackie Wilson, and his current work on "Gnarls Barkley GB3, the final frontier." His definition of success as "health, wealth and wellness... sustainability, a system of one" reflects the evolution of an artist who has transcended the boundaries of fame to embrace a more holistic vision of accomplishment.
Whether you're a longtime fan or discovering CeeLo's wisdom for the first time, this conversation offers valuable insights on resilience, purpose, and using your platform for positive change. Join us for this unforgettable discussion with one of music's most distinctive voices.
