I personally loved them ever since they debuted. And their new album is awesome. Best yet Id say. I currently love the song "Showdown" from it. Favorite one. Will.I.Am has amazing flow and Fergie is hot plus a talented singer. The other 2 I dont know by name really but they're good too of course. :P

I really just like Will.i.am and Fergie. They steal the show. Quite a few people don't know this, but Will.i.am was featured on Eazy-E's song "Merry m****f****in Christmas" in 1992. He was credited as Will1X.

Why must there be a "next album"? Why can't they just leave it at The END? :(

Will.I.Am is amazing? I am going to have to disagree with you completely.

Fergie is NOT hot. It takes a WHOLE LOT of work to make a beauty out of that beast. Credit goes to her makeup artist...

Honestly as much as I HATE "I gotta feeling" it was, to my dismay, stuck in my head for a little while- so I guess that's an accomplishment. 'Boom boom Pow' is actually a pretty decent song. With 'Where's the Love" they incorporated strings, vocals and a meaningfull messege. Overall I'd never buy one of their albums, but I have at least some level of respect for them and when forced to listen to top 20 radiostations I prefer their songs to those of most other artists.

I love the way it took a "hot" woman for them to get noticed... they make me hate the average generic MTV viewer, also their first song where is the love was a stunt pulled to get people to think finally a group of people that will actualy make some real music with morals and depth to them, guess what both were just done just to get famous and now they pound us with songs like "my humps" and "boom boom pow"... ugh. Music is seriously dying, and will continue thanks to shows like the Xfactor and POP idol... have good looks average plus singing voice, come to the Xfactor and become a star, I've yet to see a winner/finalist release write a meaning full song. Maybe the days of amazing singer song writers are truely over.

Truly over in terms of getting attention from the masses, yeah. Why should labels bend to the whims of the talented, creative control-pursuing artists when they can pick up some attractive kids here and there, give them songs, help with their vocals and dancing, and make millions?

We don't need a hendrix ror Mirrison...that's just putting undue expectations on the talented artists these days. I'd be happy with a real talented songwriter/musician/etc. making it big, who isn't afraid to mix things up.

Hendrix was nothing special as a song writer its his guitar playing thats amazing, its people like: Bob Marley Tupac Marc Bolan Robert Plant Roger Waters Bob Dylan Johnny Cash Jim Morrison BB King Eric Clapton Sadly I dont think most people have noticed that lyrics and songs with morals and meaning behind them have been fading away.

Lol. Music is FAR from dying.

Its dying in the fact that lyrics and the songwriting that goes behind the most top10 songs on the charts seem to be missing, it just seems like insert "cool" beat add catchy chorus and whala instant fame and your probably number one on every chart show... oh and its even easier if you have a great video and you look good to boot.

Sadly, lyrics and songwriting aren't cool these days, nor are they marketable. Heck, rock isn't real popular either, these days...easy to tell when consistently great acts like Spoon can't break it.
