Goodie Mob's debut in 1995 was the gold-certified album Soul Food, which was produced by Organized Noize and was critically acclaimed. Cee-Lo was the most visible member of the group prior to his departure in 2000 (among other projects, he was recording in collaboration with DJ Danger Mouse as Gnarls Barkley), while Big Gipp has made several rounds on other Dungeon Family members' albums, and T-Mo and Khujo form a duo within the group called The Lumberjacks. All four members had a feature cameo in the 1999 film, "Mystery Men" as a criminal gang known as The Not-So-Goodie-Mob. Goodie was first heard featured on several songs from OutKast's first album Southernplayalisticadillacmuzik. All four members were born in Atlanta, and the group is based there with the rest of the Dungeon Family, a collective that includes OutKast and P.A. As explained on the track "Fighting" on Soul Food, Goodie Mob means "the GOOD DIE Mostly Over Bullshit". The group's name acts as a double backronym. Goodie Mob is a hip-hop group based in Atlanta, Georgia that formed in 1991 and currently consists of members Cee-Lo, Khujo, T-Mo, and Big Gipp.
