You can hear the whole album streaming for free at:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/feature.ht...d_t=201&pf_rd_p=1604452202&pf_rd_i=B00DYVUC00
I'm checking it out now.
Update:
Went through the album and it's disappointing. It's got Cee-Lo's fingerprints all over it. And not rappin' ass Cee-Lo from the old Goodie albums, not even the Cee-Lo from his solo albums. This is basically a Goodie Mob album as led by a Gnarls Barkley/The Voice Cee-Lo. It's got some good joints, but if you're expecting that good old Down South type rap, you aren't going to find it. I think it's comparable to Big Boi's last album. The rapping is good and nothing stands out as terrible, but the sound of it as a whole is probably far away from what anyone was expecting or hoping for.

A brief song by song review:
U Don't Know What You Got - A great intro with Big Rube. Kinda makes you believe you're about to get that Old School Goodie.
State of the Art - The concept of the song is good, but this ain't really even a rap song to be honest. If you like Gnarls Barkley, you'll probably like this, but if you're looking for Goodie Mob, you'll be like WTF?
Power - See above. Basically a Gnarls Barkley type song f/ the rest of Goodie Mob.
Silence - Interlude
I'm Set - For some reason this track isn't available.
Vallelujiah - First good song. The beat is still a little different than you might expect, but the rapping and feel of the song is just what you'd expect from Goodie.
Pinstripes - Ya'll have heard this one already in this thread. Dope track.
Special Education - Same as Pinstripes.
Ghost of Gloria Goodchild - Track not available.
Kolors - This isn't even a rap song. It's spoken word to a beat. It's good for what it is, but not exactly what I was expecting to hear on this album.
Come As You Are - Same as State of the Art and Power.
Nexperiance - This is a Cee-Lo solo. I'm guessing this is a leftover track from one of Cee-Lo's projects. Sounds like something you'd expect from one of his first two solos. It's not bad, but again not what you expect on a Goodie Mob album.
The Both of Me - Track not available.
Balls - Interlude
Amy - Ummmm...I don't know what to say about this one. It's a song about a white girl, and it's another Cee-Lo solo. I'm starting to think that this was never really a Goodie Mob album, but a Cee-Lo solo that he let them hop on.
Understanding - This is a smooth track. I like it.
Uncle Red's Interlude - Track not available, but it's an interlude so who cares?
Father Time - This is a good track with a nice concept.
This isn't a Goodie Mob album. It's a Cee-Lo album f/ T Mo, Khujo, and Gipp. I was afraid this would be the case when they said Cee-Lo would be handling the album's direction. I wonder what the other dudes were thinking when they made this shit, but I suspect that this was an album that Cee-Lo already had in the works and he put them on it.

When Cee-Lo was actually rapping, he was one of my favorite MCs ever. That said, I think he just officially buried the Goodie Mob with this album.
