The Black Eyed Peas take hiatus

2011-07-12 by DaveyBoy EMERITUS | 68 Comments
American hip-poppers The Black Eyed Peas have announced at a concert in England that they are about to take an indefinite break from making music together.

As the band came onstage, Fergie stated that this show was "very special as it's the last time we're going to be in England for a long time". She then allayed fears that they had split for good by concluding "This isn't going to be the last time you'll see us."

will.i.am confirmed both facts later when twittering "The @Bep will take a break after the beginning...just like we did from monkey business to the e.n.d...but it doesn't mean we stop creating."

Hate to tell you guys, but will.i.am should be releasing a solo album towards the end of this year.

Used to kind of enjoy BEP but since fergie joined they've got worse and worse. Their last few singles sound like a 12 year old wrote them

As long as he stops going for the cash grabs it could be good. Remember when he was good? Man I hope it's good...

Listen to his 2 awful collaborations on the David Guetta album. I think that's what his solo album will be like.

If you want that get Bill Elm and Woody Jackson - Red Dead Redemption Original Soundtrack

It's really pretty damned good.

When I first heard about this I was in a state of uncontrollable joy.

But then I realised that they're all probably going to release solo material which will probably, if anything be worse.

So basically it's going to be the same only four times as bad. I'd liken it to chopping up a worm.

No, she's a pop singer... seems like she is pretty par for the course from where I'm sitting. Not to mention the fact that she is fully fuckable imo.

@Comatorium. Oh like you've never done anything in your life time that would make you seemingly
unfuckable to someone? Pee washes off... give her a couple bumps and let her go to town then tell me
I'm wrong.

So, it's wrong if I saw that Brokencyde is worse than Glassjaw? It's just a true statement. They don't sound anything alike, but there's no doubt that Brokencyde isn't as talented as Glassjaw...

I rejoiced over their break up on Facebook. People were offended that I called their music "scum."
Luckily, my actual friends all agreed with me. I have good friends.
So glad this crap is out of the world for now.

Maybe while they're on hiatus, they'll get their brain back by the time they decide to reunite (if they do) and start making legitimate hip hop music again.
