According to msnbc.com, while they never worked together, the ‘Black To Black’ songstress and Green were trying to partner up to jam in a recording studio, and were ”fond” of each other.
"We were discussing working together," Cee Lo said. "We have a mutual friend, [producer] Salaam Remi.
"There was a rumor that we had already recorded together. It wasn't true and I don't know where that came from. But we did grow fond of each other and thought we could work together."
"I could listen to her and she registered to me as the real thing...” he said of the late songstresses' songs. “It's so untimely and unfortunate. What a loss. Music has lost a daughter."
Meanwhile, critics are in an uproar over the supposed title of his hip hop group Goodie Mob’s next album - "We Sell Drugs, Too."
"I said it on Twitter but I was being totally sarcastic," Cee Lo insisted. "I was just being sarcastic and silly. I have a wild sense of humor."
