A new member recently posted about the Black Eyed Peas in a new thread (now closed), and coincidentally I was wanting to post about them, too...but my opinion is the opposite of that member's.

I don't care at all for the Black Eyed Peas songs I've heard. Partly I dislike the sound of many of their songs. I'm not a fan of dance songs and theirs sound very contrived to me.

Mostly, I dislike their music because I don't like the lyrics. The lyrics seem extremely simplistic to me. "I love you boo, I love you, too" or "Cause girl I want, I I I want you right now."

My current least favorite Black Eyed Peas lyrics: "I will fly, fly the skies for you and I. I will try until I die for you and I, for you and I, for you and I," from their song, "Meet Me Halfway." I never like it when people write "for you and I" (instead of the grammatically correct "for you and me") and use it in a rhyme scheme. Also, the song seems mushy, cliche, and exaggerated.

And then, as others mentioned here earlier, there is "My Humps" song...

I like Where Is The Love? But after that their music started to dissolve into pure sh*t.

I haven't heard it, but I'd guess its not my cup of tea. I also like how Flo Rida got right on that cash cow.

the music video just came out.. it's actually the worst song they've ever made, worse than Ive got a feeling which I completely hated. It combines all the worst aspects of pop music today, lame drinking and club references, repetitive boring beat, and stupid incorporations of old songs

take a listen

The new song is club music, but it's not much more than that... It's not bad for what it is, though, but it's still what it is. It's basically what you would expect from BEP.

The fact that I havn't heard it before, and that it only hit #12 in America (which would be something if they weren't the Black Eyed Peas) signals that they're loosing popularity here. GOOD. I don't wanna keep hearing them over and over...
