(the pitch has been raised slightly cos of copyright stuff, couldnt find a proper version on uuuuutube)
anyone else heard it?
Sounds alright, don't really like their new stuff though, prefer their older stuff.
I really like their new album, especially "The Time".
Another great album from a truly great band.
I was really annoyed when i missed them in the o2 last time they were there.
i saw them at the o2 in london, was one of the best nights of my lifeeeeeeee
The album's ok.. just too much autotune and will.i.am..
hi5, you introduced me to that (:Quote:

i disagree i think the last album is better and this could be their least favourite of mine, but i still like it. definitely agree that theres too much will.
Hiya!
I'm sure loads of you have heard Black Eyed Peas new album, The Beginning. (Which is funny considering the fact their last album was The E.N.D.) Anyways, I was wondering what your opinion was on it?
I like some of the songs like The Time, Do it Like This, Love You Long Time, Play it Loud, and Fashion Beats. But Will.I.Am stole a lot of beats from other artist and some of the lyrics are just like "wtf....O.o?" The Time (Dirty Bit) was stolen from the movie Dirty Dancing, which back then the song was awful. Do it Like This is by Will.I.Am but the lyrics are just the total wtf. He brags about his one beat and says some really awkward things in the verses like,
"I’m so official, that’s why I’m rockin this rockin this whistle
I maybe disco, parkin lady nipples
when I dj I turn the bass up to chicko"
Yeah...
The you come to Love You Long Time which the beat and rythm was stolen from Pete Townshend song, Let My Love Open the Door. Ouch. How dare you steal from The Who!
Play it Loud was pretty decent except for one issue. You can't hear Will.I.Am at all. Its just a constant synth on the mic.
Anyways,
Thoughts?

I listened to the full album the other day and I thought it was OK, not a massive fan of any of the songs in particular although a few might grow on me. Don't really like the time either although it did sound pretty good when I heard it live and in general I think the E.N.D was better than this.

IN THE BEGINNING THERE WAS A HUMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM.
its not stealing, its called sampling and it happens all the time.Quote:

Yeah but you steal that many songs for your album. I mean an artist may cover all of one song on an album not 3. Then XOXOXOXO pretty much is like "LOL :)" by Kanye or whoever it was. Just about a text message. Clearly not a good album nor songs. I give props to a few songs but most of them was just ew.Quote:

sampling and covering songs are two completely different things. it happens all the time in rap music, i dont see anything wrong with it :S how many songs out there are about say, heartbreak for example.. i dont get your point. but if you dont like it thats coolQuote:
