The following is a news release from Morongo Casino Resort Spa:

94.7 The Wave will host the Grammy Award-winning hip-hop and R&B artist CeeLo Green at the Morongo Casino Resort & Spa on Friday, November 10.

Born as Thomas DeCarlo Johnson, CeeLo was among the pioneers of Southern hip-hop in the 1990s as part of the group Goodie Mob before landing massive pop hits in the 2000s. His first two albums, “Cee-Lo Green and His Perfect Imperfections” (2002) and “Cee-Lo Green...Is the Soul Machine” (2004), landed in the Top 30 of the Billboard 200. The next year, he produced the hit “Don’t Cha” (2005) by the Pussycat Dolls and “Crazy” by Gnarls Barkley in 2006.
