I’m really sick of these less than 60 seconds video teasers, but this is to promote Cee-Lo and the crew gettin’ back together for their Sept 19th show in the ATL so it gets a pass. Plus I fucks with the Motion Family. Here Gipp shares his thoughts. Guess each member gets his own shine in the next 3 upcoming promo spots. Yipee.
