Trying to find similar bands

[nickjonaslover.]

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to find music like Gnarls Barkley ("Just a Thought"), Outkast ("Hey Ya"), Nina Simone ("Red Poppies", "Sinnerman"), Portishead, Thievery Corporation.

I don't know if those fall into a similar genre, per se...
but I wish to find more music that might compliment those choices...

I just listed songs along with the artists to give an impression of what I like about those artists.

I'd like to focus more on the Gnarls Barkley end of the spectrum, though. If that makes sense.

Thanks

Surreal And The Sound Providers-Hip Hop but very funky and soulful.

DangerDoom is quite funky.

Plus, it's one half of Gnarls Barkley.
