"My Humps" by the Black Eyed Peas...

http://revart.blogs.com/minister_of_rants/images/fergie_split.jpg

If you're willing to sing such shite songs, why would she worry about the stain on her pants?

What I really want to hear is a mashup combining "My Humps" with "Pumps and a Bump" by the post-MC Hammer. Any takers?

Hip-hop IS about claiming terriotory in language (I believe Todd Boyd uses the example "to hate" on something is way to cut through the BS of being negative and getting right to the core of what the intention is).

This being said, there is NO WORD in the english language (that I can think of at least) that accurately sums up "tits and ass" in one syllable or less.

Conversely, Black Eyed Peas could be totally making a statement on male sexuality, how it's focused mainly on "lumps." Reducing these object of such desire dehumanizes the person who desires them... kind of like saying to a pothead, "Dude, you really like a fucking PLANT that much?" The Peas are looking men dead in the eye and saying, "Hey, you're gonna get all hot and bothered over HUMPS?"

I liked them better when they were all granola.

I drive these brothers crazy,
I do it on the daily,
They treat me really nicely,
They buy me all these ice-ys.
Dolce & Gabbana,
Fendi and then Donna
Karan, they be sharin’
All their money got me wearin’
Fly gearrr but I ain’t askin,
They say they love my ass ‘n,
Seven Jeans, True Religion's,
I say no, but they keep givin’
So I keep on takin’
And no I ain’t taken
We can keep on datin’
I keep on demonstrating.

My love, my love, my love, my love
You love my lady lumps,
My hump, my hump, my hump,
My humps they got u,
She’s got me spending.
(Oh) Spendin’ all your money on me and spending time on me.
She’s got me spendin’.
(Oh) Spendin’ all your money on me, on me, on me

All that junk inside that trunk?

Get you love drunk off my hump.

Make u scream, make you scream.
Cos of my hump, my hump, my hump, my hump.
My hump, my hump, my hump, my lovely lady lumps. (Check it out)

I met a girl down at the disco.
She said hey, hey, hey yea let’s go.
I could be your baby, you can be my honey
Lets spend time not money.
I mix your milk wit my cocoa puff,
Milky, milky cocoa,
Mix your milk with my cocoa puff, milky, milky riiiiiiight.

They say I’m really sexy,
The boys they wanna sex me.
They always standing next to me,
Always dancing next to me,
Tryin’ a feel my hump, hump.
Lookin’ at my lump, lump.
U can look but you can’t touch it,
If u touch it I’ma start some drama,
You don’t want no drama,
No, no drama, no, no, no, no drama
So don’t pull on my hand boy,
You ain’t my man, boy,
I’m just tryn’a dance boy,
And move my hump.

My hump, my hump, my hump, my hump,
My hump, my hump, my hump, my hump, my hump, my hump.

Spendin all your money on me and spendin’ time on me
She’s got me spendin’.
Spendin’ all your money on me, on me, on me.

My mind, she a splode.

"curves" comes to mind, but it's more about frame than specifics

There is also no word that rightly expresses how much I dislike BEP.
If there is no word, maybe they've just should've NOT made the song.

This is the type of song that seems perfect for guilty pleasure status. It's profoundly stupid, wonderfully catchy, and loads of fun. BUT I HATE IT SO.

theres a song which bites walk like an egyptian, which is shit and the one with the pulp fiction sample ( in 2005!!!), makes me want to just give up and let my soul leave my body and go to a better place.

the worse thing is that Im worried, ill start liking it, like with the pink album that was on for about 2 months.

seriously, every time I start to enjoy this song, a line like

They say I’m really sexy,
The boys they wanna sex me.

comes and snaps me right out of it. It's very frustrating.

rong. "i'm so 3008/ ur so 2000-and-late" >>>>>>>>> the rest of the song

fergie is pretty much always the best thing about BEP singles now

man i am so desperate to hate these corny motherfuckers but theyve got a kind of unbelievable track record w/ singles

How are you measuring said track record? By quality or merely sales/chart-placement? Because the latter means nothing.

it doesnt mean "nothing"

Sure it does.

"quality" means even less than sales imho.

Sales just indicate that lots of people bought it. Big deal. Lots of people buy lots of abject crap.

they have some really terrible singles but i think "boom boom pow" is great and "i'mma be" (or whatever) also sounded kinda dope

both those songs are trying way too hard to be bonkers and energetic and 'different,' imo the Fergie solo singls and some of the earlier BEP stuff kills it

"Boom Boom Pow" is one of the worst singles of the year, easy. The most cringeworthy part is right after fergie screams 'will.i.am drop the beat now!!!' Like, i just have to bury my head in my shoulder everytime.

i guess what makes it bad is that they just seem so...into it. like they really believe that they're recording the greatest track of the year, you can just imagine them high-fiving each other after each verse

both those songs are trying way too hard to be bonkers and energetic and 'different,' imo the Fergie solo singls and some of the earlier BEP stuff kills it

well certainly BEP have always tried to be 'bonkers' and 'energetic' and "boom boom pow" is undeniably 'different' but i admire that they took a risk with a song and i much prefer will's take on bangladeshian minimalism to horrible built-in kidz bop shit "let's get it started" or "don't phunk with my heart"

"glamorous" and "fergalicious" do kinda pwn tho

im pretty sure will's spent the rest of his time since then attempting to become a full time hologram - "boom boom pow" being exhibit a

RIP

very relieved that Ned's humps are alive and well

It's been touch and go all this time.

In June 2011, Lynn Tolliver, a Cleveland, Ohio disk jockey who wrote "I Need a Freak" for his concept band Sexual Harrassment, won a $1.2 million judgment by a New York jury as a result of the band's unauthorized sampling of his song in "My Humps." The lawsuit purportedly lasted for over ten years, in effect, it began five years prior to the actual release of the song.[1]

his concept band Sexual Harrassment

we already have an Odd Future thread

There's no good way of saying "I love Sexual Harrassment" here is there? :(

if you're a cute girl in my office there sure is

I sort of don't think any album Fergie does now will be able to compete with The Dutchess.

What a tragedy for Fergie!

it's sad she was a Black Eyed Pea

I am part of a cabaret benefit show that will be doing a version of this song

we're also doing the Rock of Ages" love duet version of "Can't Fight This Feeling Anymore"

Weird. A friend just posted on facebook that her kid came home from second grade singing My Humps today.

her son

more like wack eyed pees

MILKY, MILKY RIIIIIIIGHT

it amazes me that will.i.am is publicly, vocally embarrassed about the lyrics to this song, but not any of his other songs.

haha that is ridiculous

"I don't know what possessed me to write this song, I was so happy when I was able to get back to insightful lyrics like 'I'm so 3008/You so 2000 and late' and really the entirety of 'Pump It'"

I swear this band seems to exist in the same parallel universecas the Idiocracy movie.

i... think this is... good?

Tru

i want the 20th anniversary of "let's get it started"

just makes me want to hear the originals..

when they move from golden-age and conscious where it sorta works up thru gangsta it just sorta shows they don't have the chops.

delivery sounds awkard to me, they look p awkard in the video too

but I'm glad that they made DJ Premier happy

there's never been a moment in the last 20 years that will.i.am, taboo and apl.de.ap haven't looked and sounded incredibly awkward

it is a super awkward and terrible song like most black eyed peas songs and tbh i felt embarrassed for them and myself when i watched the video, plus erykah badu did that exact video idea for "honey" years ago and it was fucking 100% better

I did like the clever touch of putting some of the original sampled records alongside the hip hop songs that sampled it.

also re: "my humps" i still lol everytime i hear or think of "mix your milk wit my cocoa puff, milky, milky riiiiiiight"

"My Humps" didn't sound as horrible last time I tried listening to it, shockingly. Same with "London Bridge."

well I liek it

my lovely lady lumps

could/would anyone but fergie sing that
