Yesterday - The Black Eyed Peas - General

[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?t=277&v=anJYoItYeyM[/media] Holy crap, they went back to their roots and it sounds damn awesome.

The song is even about them going back to their roots.

I loved all of the samples they used. It was a nice throwback.

Cool samples but it was a little weak since the gimmick was a lot of recycled stuff lyrically / lyrical content based on the fact that it's a throwback. Would like to see what else they come up with through this proclaimed throwback sound.

I understand it's a little gimmicky but it proves they can all rap and follow a decent rythm still, while providing tolerable music. I'm so glad they move passed the cringy electronic crap, that stuff was literally the worst music to come out of 2007-2011

Cant wait for the whole album. It almost sounds like at the end of the song there is a follow up that leads to a different style or something, I could be wrong tho.

This is really cool, I haven't heard these guys rapping properly in such a long time I'm glad Fergie is absent

sounds a lot like their first two albums, pre-fergie

I loved their electronic-sounding stuff, but this is good too.

I like how the highest quality is 480p, just like their old days.

So basically Will I Am was not involved in writing this song

Where is the female singer?

[QUOTE=iAmNumberOne;48246329]Where is the female singer?[/QUOTE] Fergie is gone from the looks of it, she wasn't in a track they previewed before this one's release either.

This is the first Black Eyed Peas song I've enjoyed in over a decade. Now if only N.E.R.D. could make a comeback... [editline]19th July 2015[/editline] [QUOTE=unrezt;48246153]You think that's bad?

Erykah Badu has accused them of stealing her idea for the video. [media]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SFkHylBiPyQ[/media] I'd give them the benefit of the doubt that it's just a coincidence, but considering will.i.am's history with plagiarism...

That video is just someone rummaging through a record store with their song playing and animating the covers. Black Eyed Peas video is them rummaging through a record store about a song of taking things back to how they were with each album they bring up the song changing pace and style to reflect the album they're showing, sometimes animating them. It's like a very basic idea in general, and something thats been done plenty of times before, but at least for BEP's video it makes sense and goes with the music and influences.
