Aural Only: Black Eyed Peas

Who do the Black Eyed Peas think they fucking are–Michael Jackson? I wouldn't even care if the double video for "Imma Be" and "Rock That Body" was the next "Thriller" on a cinematical level. It's still not enough for me to sit through ten minutes of these bitches frolicking about with some dancing robots.

As much as I loathe the Peas self-importance and general influence on music, I have to shamefully admit one thing. The beat switch of "Imma Be" is pretty fantastic, even if the rest of the song is completely unbearable. With the exception of Fergie, nobody in the group knows how to ride that beat, and it's a really sad day when Fergie is the least annoying member of this ensemble.

Also, did anyone else blurt out "OH NO SHE DI'N'T!!" at the conclusion of this video? Because I totally did, shortly followed by my face hitting my palm. Expect to see this on this Saturday's Weekly Top Ten, because I unfortunately can't let my personal bias lead to an ultimate Peas ban.

  1. i like the middle bit, imma BEEE checking out manhunt.
    some of those guys who did their own vids to the lady gaga backtrack’s should do some to IMMA BEE.
    IMMA BEE waiting for porn twins
    IMMA BEE waiting for dewitt’s naughty pics

  2. Had I not just jerked off before watching this, Fergie would have given me a total boner.
    Now dewit, lets rewind: No ones forcing you to watch this video, when has fergie ever been annoying, and why are you so against them all of a sudden?
    First: The videography was way above average. I wouldnt’ say great but it was damn good and very creative.
    Second: The songs themselves are lyrically good too. Besides the lyrics I could pick up on the main beat, and two underbeats which puts you at three different dance speeds of which work well enough together that you could switch between them. Someone who flails around to a song could almost look like they have rythym with this song. I don’t know, I love the new album by the black eyed peas and I’ve always been a fan of fergie. She makes me a bit bi-Curious. If I ever see a Beyonce hate thread, I’m quitting the site. She is the shit…

  3. what’s wrong with Beyonce hate?
    a fat cow that can sing – nothing special.
    had a few nice hits here and there, but nothing special.
    beyonce is so overrated in the usa, but she’s (at most)a mediocre celebrity in the world, and for a reason.
