So, is it me? Or are the Black Eyed Peas really embarassing?

circa the dutchess, when will.i.am was doing some really great production work and fergie was proving herself to be a surprisingly excellent pop star, i came round to the idea that BEPs were actually a pretty good thing, and now they just annoy me for not being better.

Had no idea she was the girl from Kids Incorporated.

the only UK top 40 hit to use Gotta as Got A prior to BEP was Ice-T's 'Gotta Lotta Love' in 1994.

the more you know

I've griped about the title of "I Gotta Feeling" before

I see it as a subtle tribute to Slade.

fuck i know i'm going to have to play this at the club and maybe i will like it at some point, but today i just can't, it's so empty and cynical

i like david guetta the most out of this combo, he's been doing nice work lately imo

re: BEP - their dancing is so goofy, I bet they could have been cast as characters on Cop Rock.

poor guy, nobody laughed at his obscure TV show joek

it's funny how this new song sounds like it could have come out in 2011. I don't know if that's refreshing or not, but this really feels like no time has passed between that era of BEP and now.

also hilarious that will.i.am jacked the most obvious Marley chorus for the hook.
