While discussing his upcoming Absolut-sponsored documentary Distilled with Us Weekly, Cee Lo Green let it slide that he’s teaming back up with Danger Mouse for a new Gnarls Barkley release. “There is a new Gnarls Barkley album coming out!” he told the mag. “I would hope it would break more grounds. Knowing the nature of the space that we shared I am pretty sure it will be somewhat similar.” Crazy! Take a peek at Distilled below while you try and count all the projects currently on Cee Lo’s To Do list.

Gnarls Barkley’s last release was in 2008 with their album The Odd Couple. Though critically praised, it failed to deliver a single as successful as their mega-hit “Crazy” from their debut disc, St. Elsewhere. (Though let’s be honest, many albums fail to have a song like “Crazy” on them.)

We’re totally on board with this dynamic duo re-teaming, we just have no idea how Green will fit it in in between taping The Voice, filming his own talk show Talking With Strangers, and hitting cities around the country while on tour with Rihanna. Not to mention he’s still in the midst of promoting his own solo LP, The Lady Killer.

Need further proof of Cee Lo’s busy schedule? Watch the trailer to his Distilled documentary below.

Part 1 of Distilled will premiere on June 27.
