PortalBEP: What do you think about this change of the Black Eyed Peas from hip hop to electronic, does that make any sense to you? I’ll be very honest to you: I doesn’t make sense to me. I gonna say this for the first time in a interview: The Black Eyed Peas, to me, it’s like going to a restaurant, if I ordered fish and someone bring me a pork shark, I’m gonna do: “Hold on a second, I’ve ordered fish”. To make the analogy makes sense, I was in the black eyed peas and I feel like what they are now, is another product like now they’re potatoes. I’m not trying to make fun of them, but they’re not the BEP anymore to me, it’s the same name, but it’s a completely different product. So if I saw who they are now, without knowing the back history where they came from, it would be a little easy for me to accept. I don’t know if I would like anymore, but I would cringe when I hear it, but I’m not crazy about that style of music, it’s not about the BEP. But I do feel, that the Black Eyed Peas have accomplished something really unique, they’ve been able to go from underground hip hop to this kind of electronic dance music, and still sell a lot of records and they pleased a lot of different people, that’s what’s beautiful about it.(via PortalBlackEyedPeas.com | The BEST Black Eyed Peas Fan-site)
