Fixed.

Saw the video late last night. Thought it was funny how she really doesn't have any "humps". No matter HOW HARD she tries to arch her back and stick it out...

The funny thing about BEP is that their 1st album is all about not selling out. I loved the 1st 2 albums. Now they are just meh. for some reason they remind me a litttttle bit of Outkast.

No. Outkast wen't crazy. Okay, Andre 3000 wen't crazy.

Black Eyed Peas, plain and simple, sold out. Sure, I love their first two albums and I really liked Elephunk. But Monkey Business has to be one of the worst albums of the year.

Is she seriously talking about her butt? Cause I just caught part of the video, and honestly, I've seen better hineys on 12 yo's at the mall.

Pretty pathetic if so.

On the last few releases ( and especially with Humps) they have an annoying habit of saying a line or the chorus ALOT of times again and again.
Not that inspiring really!

Their new song (and even the single before that) are absolute shit. Fergie is even more annoying than Carrot Top.

how important are the black eyed peas, let alone fergie?

I can't believe there's a discussion about the Black Eyed Peas. sigh

They're like one of those bands that totally suck ass that everyone in the media thinks you like.

There was a time in which the Black Eyed Peas were a great band. Example: Behind the Front and Bridging the Gap.

Then Elephunk came out. While I enjoy that album for what it is, it didn't compare (at all) to their first two albums. People cried, "Sell out," but most BEP fans stood by them. I will gladly admit I saw them live when they went on tour during the spring of 2004 with N*E*R*D and they did put on a good show (N*E*R*D was far superior though). However, I will not see them live now. Why?

1. Monkey Business is a piece of shit and easily one of the worst records of 2005. I'm sure there are far worse peices of shit out there (Paris Hilton, Lindsay Lohan, and so on and so on), but the Black Eyed Peas shouldn't resort to selling out this bad.
2. They sold out, plain and simple. With Elephunk, there was still some originality to the tracks. Monkey Business sounds like any other generic hip-hop/pop album out there.
3. I'm not paying $120 to see them live in December (when they come back to Vegas) to see basically Monkey Business preformed live. I paid $30 a year and a half ago and got 4 bands (The Clipse [20 minute set], Black Eyed Peas [90 minute set], Spymob [10 minute set], and N*E*R*D [75 minute set]). Christ, how inflation rises.

Before Monkey Business, I only knew a handful of people who liked BEP.
When Monkey Business hit, I knew tons of people who like (the new) BEP.

Oh well.

Sad fact: Humps gets a lot of play in clubs now. Not even good booty music either, too fast.

I enjoy their music, but she was probably brought on for the selling via the video audience. I like her voice fine, but it isn't the reason I enjoy the songs. She is very replaceable....unless you are talking about the sales from people who see the videos. But I don't watch videos.

I didn't know that Fergie chick actually sang. I figured she was just a bez.

I just put the mute button when their video comes on.
