Black Eyed Peas-Super Bowl Half Time Performance [Video]


Now whatever your thoughts are on B.E.P this is an absolute must watch. As you’d expect from the half time Super Bowl Show it’s a visual masterpiece. Truly epic.

Vocally they are poor, which goes to show how much they rely on production. At least they remembered their lyrics though, unlike Christina Aguilera who managed to forget a few words to the American National Anthem. Nightmare. Also note a couple of random guest appearances from Slash (I’m still trying to figure out why…) and Usher.

Quick Throwback: Black Eyed Peas/DJ Premier

Discovered this whilst putting together my ultimate DJ Premier collection (yes, I’m still doing that) and have been meaning to post it for a while.

Take a step back to 2000 when the BEP were merely a twinkle in their mainstream father’s eye and Fergie was still a drug-crazed, sex-maniac (*rolls tongue back in*). The track itself is pure irony, but their quirky sense of humour is evident even back then in the visuals. Definitely worth a watch.

I wonder how many BEP fans know this exists…
