The Day The Music Died…

bep

Why are these people being allowed to kill music? Forget the moonwalk conspiracy for a moment and focus on the reality that the Black Eye Peas are ruining any remaining credibility to Hip-Hop and to the delicious taste of black eyed peas!

*as an aside, you MUST use fatback if you are making hoppin-john*

Good gravy I watched these clowns on Saturday Night Live this past weekend and they blew my mind at how horrible they were as performers. They were simply a collection of bouncing buffoons repeating vapid single line nursery rhymes. I know they have sold tens of millions of records but that belabors the point that the world is filled with people no smarter than assmunch.

The fact that these fucks are listed in Wikipedia as a Hip-Hop band is the problem I am having. They are like Milli Vanilli without the suicide (yet, oh God please hear me). This chick Fergie is closer to being 50yrs old than she is to being 30. I’ve seen her hands and them shits look gnarled. Someone might say that is from her years as a hardcore drug abuser but I think its just the fact that she as old as fux and doesn’t take well to moisturization.

The person we really need to be saved from is Will.I.Am. He isn’t just complicit in ruining rap music as a fake Timbaland producer but he is ruining comicbook franchises too. His casting in the Wolverine movie was a sire spot for me this past summer. If you thought Wale or Kid Cudi were bad for Hip-Hop then you must recognize the Black Eyed peas as the anti-Christ. Who will save our Hip-Hop now that NaS is buying beats from Will.I.Am?

    I remember when they first came out…thinking they were a decent group. Then they switched up, now I don’t like them and they are getting rich.

  2. Will.I.Am has been know 2 be ABSURDLY nice on the mic. [ll] i just wonder if he LIKES the music he makes, or is it just 4 the check. i have no doubt he is HIPHOP, but this recent stuff is HORRIBLE.

    i think all things r forgivable when u get Kweli on a track spitting a RIDICULOUS verse like this on “like that”… http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=07n5M5uDG0E

    lol….. exactly. The sad thing is they were DOPE on their first album “Behing The Front” (Pre Fergie), but it’s like they became everything the were dissing, guess they decided to join the satanic music industry club, lol……

    You ain’t no band if you aren’t playing instruments.

    Roots and Blitz w/Embassy are bands.

    Let’s call the B.E.P. what they are, music to get the family on the dance floor at a Bar Mitzvah.

    I been watching SNL for @ least 25 years, literally. My pops started me on that shit, now I watch it with my boy. I can name most of the majors from Mya Rudolph to Phil Hartman to Gilda Radner to Terri Sweeney [||].

    Point is, that performance Saturday was easily the worst I’ve seen in a long, long time. I never truly listened to “Boom Boom Pow”, but the fact that I could see the sounds, made it that much more horrid. I made my wife stop what she was doing to look @ those characters.

    I’m amazed they sold so many copies of their last album.

  6. 40 says:

    C/S Grands. It was down right horrible. Even with their shades on you could see how not into it they were, or they’re just that bad. I’m glad you blogged this DP, I truly thought I was the only one this horrified.

    I’ll defend Wil.I.Am for second. As a record producer, he knows what he’s doing. He knows how to make easy, digestible pop music. He’s not concerned with being stuck in one genre, and you hear it in his music.
    The reason why some emcees are going to him for beats . . . some of his stuff is banging and cats like NAs wants more pop dollars.

    B.E.P with Fergie, a lot of their material is just hacked without shame. Their whole style, fashion and stage presence is just the cut loose and keep their fans hyper. Some hip hop can learn from them because they’re capturing what many artists want – pop dollars. For the most part, B.E.P. may sell a whole lot of records but they will not be revered in the years to come. It’s ok.

    I guess I didn’t miss a thing.

  8. Tony Grands says:

    Dare I say, it was even worse than Kanye’s performance earlier this year. All ‘Ye Tudda did was spaz out in the middle of the stage, in front of acid trip visual aids (now that was dope), & had some chick in the back hitting the notes he couldn’t. That was relatively bad.

    But these cats came out looking like homosex’d superheroes who found a hooker on the way to the show.
    Does anybody know the name of the other two dudes? Just curious…

  9. ENIG MUE says:

    Will.I.Am is insanely talented, and that’s why it hurts so much. He did an instrumental album called Lost Change which I enjoyed much, but its hard to defend duke when he sold out BEP.

    You know there are kids who are just finding out about the Boondocks show and are perplexed as to why the characters are often rocking BEP & Mos Def shirts. Its hard to remember the times when BEP were heralded with the same backpacker love as Mos Def.

  10. ODBForPresident says:

    avoid the pain by just calling it pop. bep dont make hip-hop. “Pip” maybe. all i wanna know is how will.i.am got a part in the wolverine movie. was that charcter even in the books?

  11. ODBForPresident says:

    lol…they look like a fruity european version of the x-men in that picture

  12. SIC BEATS says:

    lol… underneath all that bullshit though, these guys individually are really talented. I just dont think they can be categorized as hip hop when they do their group thing. They are definitly”popped” out.

    The girl aint too talented but she well suits her sole purpose of being easy on the eyes.

  13. rek says:

    will.i.am produces some dope shit every now and then. ya’ll hear that sergio mendez track? bonkers. even teh michael jackson “pyt 2008” shit was fiyah. but his solo album and blackeyed peas shit = ass factory.

  14. the_dallas says:

    The asian dude in this group is a better looking woman than Fergie [ll]

  15. atifl says:

    aside from “like that” the only BEP song i fuxed with was “joints and jams” video was kinda dope as well.

    LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!! YOU ARE A WILD DUDE DALLAS! GLAD TO SEE THIS POST THO. HOW THESE HERB-AVORES ARE CONSIDERED HIP HOP IS BEYOND ME. I REMEMBER WHEN THEY WERE FAKE UNDERGROUND WACKPACKERS AND FERGUSON WASN’T IN THE GROUP. STILL HAD ZERO STEEZ. THEY SHOULD ALL BE CLOTHESLINED. GOOD WORK DP!

  17. Tiffany says:

    I don’t get the fascination with these folks either. Unless you’re high on some kind of dope, who would listen to this crap? The audacity to call this ish hip hop.

    ^^That’s about as bad as when Biggie said he’d hit RuPaul before Xscape.

  19. $ykotic/Don McCaine says:

    The shawl-shirt & will.i.am’s expression say it all…crooked ass sunglasses…that SNL performance was horrible…Fergie’s got a receding part in her mane…what are the other 2’s names…cho cha & basura….

  20. Tony Grands says:

    ^^Lmao @ cho cha & basura…..

  21. 2SEATER says:

    what trips me out is the fact that their first two albums were the antithesis of everything they are now. hell, their first album was basically about mainstream bafoonery, now they are the exact example of what they were against. they should do a movie about this bullshit.

    -ps. Will. I . Am is still a good producer if you hear any of his stuff that’s not on the radio (example: the Sergio Mendez cd)

  22. Combat Jack says:

    ^ “The shawl-shirt”

    Lol, nigga said “shawl-shirt”

    Re the Asian dude, he’s not better looking than Fergie, but is hairdo sure is purty. [||]. I did think it was a chick when I first glanced at the pic.

  23. thekid10705 says:

    Couldn’t agree more! These people gotta get the fuck outta here!

    Fergie is a dope fiend whore!

    I would beat the shit outta the asian ninja dickhead..

    Will iam is a Hack!

    And I have no clue who the fuck the 4th dude is.

    Fergie went down the same road as Britney Spears. She was on that show Kids, Incorporated that also spawned Rahsaan Patterson and ended up a meth addict.

    When the Black Eyed Peas came out they were on some backpack type stuff. Anti record industry and selling out. All of a sudden, they had a lead female singer and were releasing songs with catchy hooks.

    It all comes down to the money. I guess they preffered eating, shopping and selling records. If it were me and hip hop wasn’t paying the bills or making me a houshold name….I’d throw Fergie on the hook and have Will.I.aint dropping beats in a minute.

    YO, Isn’t the Asian dude a DOOBIE DON’T?

  26. Brahsef says:

    They went from being the most boring group in hip-hop before Fergie to becoming the most annoying group in music.

  27. rakeem says:

    i just read that they won best “rock/pop” group at the american music awards. so you no longer have to worry about them defiling the sacred art form we refer to as Hip Hop Music. we wont claim them, hope they dont claim us either. #fuckouttahere
