We remember a time when the Black Eyed Peas stood up for something. When they were the anti-establishment, the anti-mainstream, the alternative voice, the underground movement, the rap group that used rhymes to educate and liberate. Back then the MCs were busting rhymes that meant something.
Today, the Black Eye Peas have become exactly everything that they were against, manufacturing songs that have less lyrical sophistication than a children’s nursery rhyme. The video you see up top is an indication of how absurd and full of themselves the BEP have become.
At a recent performance live on French TV, lead MC Will.i.am forgot the lyrics to his own single and resorted to reading them of a mobile phone. The blunder begins past min 00:30. Ridiculous.
Where is the love BEP? You are truly gone going gone.
Sidenote: Yes, this has nothing to do with mobile tech but there is a mention of a mobile phone 😛
