I was surprised at how will.i.am didn't take this opportunity to develop an ego. It's sort of a nice thing not to have when you're producing songs for other people, but with an album like this, with very few guests, the man could have left some serious footprint.
I think that the low expectations I had for this have probably positively affected my appreciation. As a continuous flow of an album it does work well, but it is pretty much harmless. Well, except for some of the lyrics. Some are PAINFUL. And not even in a consciously ridiculous way.
