Cee Lo Green is one of the world's top business people

  • May 14, 2012
  • Mikey

Fast Company have named Cee Lo Green in the Top 5 of their 100 Most Creative People in Business list.

It's no FHM Hot 100, but a nice com­pli­ment all the same.

The 'Groupie Sex' hitmaker explained the key to his success is main­tain­ing his irre­press­ible work ethic.

"Either you’re working hard trying to make it happen," he told the magazine (quoted here), "or you’re working three times as hard trying to keep it happening."

Or you're reclining back in a big swingy chair, kicking buttons.

The "singer-writer-producer-per­son­al­ity-actor-entre­pren­eur-mentor-freak" said his 'business' was all about doing the important jobs. "We don’t do it all," he mused. "We do what counts." (Pays the most).
