He got millions and the power to do everything with his solo album,i thought there was left something good in will.i.am........

the video is nice with all those chicks but it's fuckin POP.
This is the proof that he don't give a fuck about the music,he just wanna make MONEY.
I can't even imagine how POP will be the rest of the album :P :P
-
he just wanna make MONEY.
He's got some nerve, doesn't he ? ::)
-
this is the guy from black eyed peas, right??
yeh, well of course its gonna sound like that.
and "he just wanna make MONEY." - doesnt everyone?
-
he just wanna make MONEY.
He's got some nerve, doesn't he ? ::)
LMAO! +1
Speakin of Black Eyed Peas, I can't believe Fergie sings that song "Big Girls Don't Cry". I didn't know she could actually sing cuz she usually makes silly shiet like "Lady Lumps".
-
Dude can definitely more than that pop garbage

You think this guy has the power to do anything he wants with his album? Get your head out of the sand and respect his hustle. You are not the one who is supposed to buy his album; 15-year-olds are.
-
Black Eyed Peas falling off. I gained some respect for Will I Am after tracks with Common and Game but this song is awful. Also Fergie cant sing!
Last Black eyed Peas song i liked was Dont Lie cause of the funky beat.
-
interscope tell them what to do, catering fo mainstream. Interscope was the one who put that bitch in BEP.

Am I the only person who have never considered Peas or Will.I.AM as hip-hop/West Coast representant?
-
I think dude is talented and has always been about doing fun music.
This track is a clear example of that... those chicks might have gotten it from their mamas, but will.i.am got the sample from an old school 80's club/dance track called "Don Quichotte" by a French group called Magazine 60.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WB2z6H9ej9U
(fast forward to 1:50 for the exact sample)
I think hip hop has many faces and is always changing... that's what makes hip hop great. And will.i.am is definitely an L.A. rep.

True!!!
Lol@ you guys saying Dude ain't westcaost..balh..blah..blah, and catching feelings!!
-
i gues yall don't know tha history...eazy-e and will i am...the relationship they had!!
-
If I ever made a music video, I'd make it exactly like that. I don't know about you guys, but that looked like the tightest place in the world to be! He's been making "pop garbage" ever since Fergie came in the group, so why change now? He can bring heat when he wants to (Nas, Game tracks,) but there's nothing wrong with this song. It's mindless fun, and it's not as irritating as "My Humps." And there's definitely nothing wrong with this video.
-
Lol, he already sold out years ago when he said "fuck the real hiphop fans, lets make sum corny music that millions of 12 year old girls all over the world will like".
-
he should've did more gangsta shit and stayed on ruthless records 8)
-
i like the fact that he does whatever he feels like doing, whether its making the hip hop is dead song for Nas or doing songs that get played on KIIS FM.
He has taken himself out of the box that many artists are stuck in .... or are afraid to take themselves out of.
-

(I'm a kill myself for this statement)
Jokes: "Let's just hope the 12 year old girls who listen to his music come to their senses. We don't want another R. Kelly incident, now, would we?"
*shrugs*
he should've did more gangsta shit and stayed on ruthless records
1. Was he Will.I.Am back then, or did he go by a different alias?
2. Did he ever work with Slow Pain or any of the Chicano rappers while at Ruthless?
-
Who ever considered this nigga HIP HOP to begin wit??
LMFAO.
-
I think if BEP would have started out their music that way I don't think it would turn off that many people to them. But their 1st 2 albums were dope as fuck, they were like a westcoast Tribe Called Quest to me back then lyrically and musically. That stuff is no were near the stuff they do now for the most part and for most that is why they are considered Sellouts. But on the production tip, Will ain't no joke on them boards.
-
And there's definitely nothing wrong with this video.
This thread is not about the video ::)
-

yeah right LOL 8)

he's more hip hop than all your favorite teen rappers will ever be expecially that clown in your signature 8)

this is true......hell, primo produced one of their dopest songs........so yes, they were considered underground LA hip hop for the majority of the late 90's and repped LA well, heck, industry insider magazine(remember that? i gues only if you lived in LA and werent 8 at the time) named them LA hip hop group of the year back around 01'........and yes, they are now as pop as it gets, but give him credit for still making the occasional good hip hop song
-
Who's idea was it to put Fergie in the group, Will i am's?

I am bumping Behind The Front right now. Dope album.
-
Some of those BEP "pop" songs contain parts of classic hip hop favorites... Sally That Girl by The Gucci Crew... I Wonder If I Take You Home by Lisa Lisa & The Cult Jam... just to name some...

Yeah Will picks some ill samples. I still from time to time bump they new stuff. They will have a couple tracks that are str8 hip hop but most of they stuff now is pop.

Exactly! Quit your bitching you "hip-hop heads"

Yeah man, I remember when them dudes were barely coming out and they did a power 106 show at Florentine Gardens. Those cats were handing out free tapes to anyone. They came up to my car and gave me a bunch of free shit.
They did their thing and were succesful. I'm not feeling their music much anymore but their first album was dope as fuck and I respect the hard work they put in, especially when I recall seeing them cats handing out free tapes in the Florentine Gardens parking lot back in '97.
-
Black Eyed Peas used to be so dope back then, Da Joint , was my jam 10 years ago, I would say that its a shame and that they be selling out, but they still make some nice cut, they just dont release them as singles, and its all good anyway Will-I-am is a great and talented producer, his new single is not that hot but I'll support and get his shit
-
the video is nice with all those chicks but it's fuckin POP.
Am I the only person who have never considered Peas or Will.I.AM as hip-hop/West Coast representant?
its difficult to say that, considering they was banging with eazy back in the early nineties on ruthless... u cant get any more west than that!

Pitchfork: There is this sense of simplicity about that music that's proven impossible to emulate. With all the information that's out there right now, is it harder for young writers to write with that kind of primitivism?
Iggy Pop: It's harder to have the will because it's so much easier to plug in a computer and find a old hook from surf music or something. That was the last one to blow my mind, was a hook from an old guitar instrumental called "Apache" or "Pipeline" and it used in this horrible quasi-rap song by the Black Eyed Peas. I'm hearing this horrible rapping over this a beautiful piece of music. It's kind of like those little juice drinks that you get in the 7-Eleven that say, "contains 10% real juice." Their music is a mountain of crap. Or a Frankenstein's monster, you know? He gets up, but he's jerky when he walks and his feet thud and he has all these sutures. That's really easier to do, and it's easier to collect on.

most folks commenting negatively toward Will never heard his BBE Release :
http://bbemusic.com/data.pl?release=BBEBGCD003
Dude is hiphop, but you gotta understand this is this dudes career, nobody comes and shits on your for trying to do your job! Nobody calls you a sell out for trying to make more money doing a job that you probably hate doing. Listen to that BBE release if you get a chance, the dude is real hip hop and has plenty of respect for the culture, respect the mans career choice.The man is making good money doing a job that he loves to do, use your energy in better ways than to try to take him down
-
i have no respect for anybody who spells out every word in their music
-
i'm feeling this shit.

And you,GENIUS,have you read this whole thread ?
-
I read your rant about will, and read folks replies...as I said, this is his career, not yours, stop downing the man cause YOU think he is a sell out, he has already hustled and worked hard in the underground, the man has already proven to be a credible hiphop head, he is now focused on the money part of this music, but here you are making a negative thread about someone because YOU think he aint doing the right thing with his power or position. Wake up man for real, the nigga aint stealing, killing, promoting violence, racism, sexism, or anything like it, he just making pop shit, shit that you have the choice to not listen to if you choose, but to come in here slandering someone for gettin his bread legally and ethically is senseless.
-
He's a sellout because you don't like his music? I don't think you know what a sellout is. Maybe he likes pop music and wanted to make a pop record, how is that selling out?
-
i can't believe this thread has this many replies :D
-
i was thinking the same thing dude
-
i was thinking the same thing dude
LOL
props styles 8)

Fuck Gay i am
-
Well you have some that remember the Joints & Jam Will and BEP and the Will from Ruthless. Then you have the people that remember the pop icons BEP is today. So it ain't like Will has always done the stuff he is doing now.
-
i don't have a problem with what he is doing... we need someone out there in the spotlight like that... when NWA was doing it we had our artists like Young MC that were doing lighter stuff in the mainstream... it was a 2 way attack..

??? UMMM, OK.
The majority of people do not like Will I Am because of the music he used to make is not the same. BEP was dope as fuck when they first came out. The BEP now is something completely different that alot of people here cannot vibe to. The work he has done on other artists stuff is cool though. Mix some of that in with his solo and BEP stuff and we would be on to something. LOL on using coon. I have not heard that word in ages.
