Another pet peeve: The Black-Eyed Peas

A bunch of pseudo-socially conscious, hypocritical sell-outs if I've ever seen them.

You have the guy who is a cheap rip-off of Wyclef, and the recently-added Britney Spears look-alike to boost sales among 12 year old white girls.

I actually had someone tell me the following (paraphrasing): "Oooh, I like underground hiphop, my favorite album is the new Black-Eyed Peas. Their lyrics are so deep". This was coming from someone who is 20 years old....


This band needs to be shot.

She is also popular among horny adolescent males.

Although I agree, this is once case which makes me wonder why there is no capitol punishment in Canada. Certain people actually deserve to die. Such as this "retarded" trio+1.

Yeah, Stacey Ferguson is hot and I got to say that she's more talented than Britney (I'm not saying that she is very talented, just more than Britney)

I'll ask collegeguy if he's heard anything else by BEP, other than Elephunk? Or are you basing their 'socially conscious' being on 'Where is the love?' or is it 'Let's get Retarded' or 'Shut up'?

have you seen them live? I was always a fan, but really respected them after a live show.

As for your friend, i think his words speak for themselves....

i wouldnt compare drop it like its hot to black eyed peas...ever. snoop dogg can do whatever the fuck he wants. the black eyed peas havent really done shit except sell out as soon as they got a tiny bit of space from their label. they piss me off. theyre corny as hell. they had a little hope flashlight but they dropped it a mile back. theyre bubblegum-shit they are my biggest pet peeve...sometimes i truly know the buddy holly incident happened to the wrong people at the wrong time, where was this crew? i also have to say, they are as bad as many others, and worse, look at everything now in mainstream its getting a tad better, and i will complain about marginally mediocre because im picky like that. watch them at the vmas, and tell, TELL ME you didnt want to just beat them down, seriously. the love is up my ass, theyre already retarded, and they need to shut the phuck up.
