[mentalbeaver]

I just downloaded the Behind The Front album from the Amazon MP3 store after watching this.

[the187bitch23]

i love the black eye peas this 1 of my favorite songs

[Akshun54]

Will.I.Am is still a great producer and instrumentalist. I love the track he did for Nas "Hip Hop is Dead" ironically and the "Unforgettable" remake.

[Akshun54]

I used to love these dudes...

[eldavis83]

When I first started liking the BEP's

[UerMom]

[RandomToughGuy]

[Izahdnb]

Too bad they sold their souls.. this cd was rockin!

[nathanielKnemis]

"Yeah, you platinum, but you're wack as hell."

Those were your words so many years ago, Mr. I.AM.

[NoFukinNamesLeft]

@nathanielKnemis That's when phony motherfuckers got throwen off stage 90s fover

[fernandoiscrazy]

Do you think Black Eyed Peas watch their old videos on youtube from the 90s and say "Wow I forgot how dope I sounded on some real Hip Hop shit!" Ahhhh well I'm a fuckin millionaire....and I gotta feeling...that tonight's gonna be a good good niiiiiiight!

[BetterThanMan]

I got the 12" of this from '98

Who'da thought where they'd go nex....

[In4cus]

Who's the girl singing with them on this? She looks familiar.

[thearaban]

FERGIE RUINED THEM!

[Forygn]

Wagon Christ – Cris Chana

that the real artist behind this Track --->>>> Luke Vibert aka Wagon CHrist

[GaToRGaL1224]

what happened fergie is what happened

[LovingMusic1912]

cool video xD

[martinfartin90]

TRUE PLACK EYED PEAS. THEY SADLY ARENT THE SAME HIP HOP GROUP ANYMORE! THE NEW MUSIC SUCKS SPECIALLY WITH FERGIE.

[d0bfd0b]

whats the name of the ending song ?

[d0bfd0b]

what the name of the ending song ?

[JorgelShmorgel]

Seriously what happened? I remember seeing and hearing this in '97 or '98 and i thought it was a pretty cool song. And then came Where Is The Love... *barf*

[8pop01]

this is the true black eyed peas they don't need fergie

[Letter10music]

-Psst.- People dont actually know this but, Black Eyed Peas used to make good music.

[The187bitch]

this my shit i love this song

[1amJ35u5]

Lol, they've always made really whack music vids.

[tallred858589861616]

You people are smoking some BAD crack. This is NOT a new song from BEP! The original version came out in the 90's, and like the song says "that; the joint, thats the jam

[Nisp2]

I remember liking these guys when I was like 12... I thought I was just young and stupid but I forgot they used to be good.

[EdiBlazE]

These niggaz used to breakdance on cardboard boxes and now they pop hop on paper money.dam sell outs

[IslandFuzz]

No disrespect to Fergie but this is the last time the BEP has anything interesting to say.

[woody231979]

Ahhhh....the days when music was great. What happened ? What is this non-creative, diluted bullshit we have now ?

[shawnachunna]

keep it old school man! i miss those days man..

[etherealrhythm]

"Black Eyed Peas in real hip hop shocker"?

[Doc447]

This is when black eyed peas were good.. Then fergie came along and turned everything to shit ! Fergie's hot though.. Thats the only good thing about them now haha

[nicoalayon16]

BLACK EYED PEAS FOR EVER

[MultiGlamorousGirl]

the lady this video is uhhhhglyyy and dosn't sing as good as fergie ! d:

[Bill486]

Yeah..fergie is cool, but...this was the "REAL" BEP....cold freestyling & breakin'...

[TheHiddenAnswer]

First BEP video i ever saw like 9 years ago & i haven't seen it again untill now.

[ajnatheiconoclast]

Anyone who says BEP didn't sell out or they like BEP when Fergie came in should be stabbed in the eyes with a BIC pen.

END OF DISCUSSION

[reesescupbrandy1]

Now, this is the Black Eyed Peas I knew. I liked Kim Hill, too bad she left so Fergie can fill her spot. 

[BennoYaKnow22]

this was before they sold out.

[buttlord123]

Best Black Eyed Peas song period. cant go wrong with this shit

[xwizkidx]

thedance style at the end amazing

[babybashwife4life]

love bep 

[Rocker095150]

what? black eyed peas used to be good?

[borghooz]

@Rocker095150

yes bep USED to be good

[linh867]

how can they sing with there face smushed against the glass?! haha and wheres fergie??? who that chick at 1:23? but i love the song!

[thecontrivance2]

@linh867

This is the real BEP

[JackWMS14]

@linh867 This is what they were, Hip-Hop. Not the watered down, mainstream R&B catastrophic mess that they are today.,

Check ATBAN Klan for what they really used to sound like, good stuff!

[djjoshsnowden]

@JackWMS14 I wouldn't call them mainstream R&B. Wouldn't that make them similar to Usher and Trey Songz? I would just say they are straight pop music like Lady Gaga and Beyonce.

[JackWMS14]

@djjoshsnowden haha. is there a great deal of difference? It's all shit none the less...

[djjoshsnowden]

@JackWMS14 Eh from a commercial and ideological standpoint they may not be much different from the mainstream R&B on the radio, but they still really aren't R&B at all lyrically, musically and thematically speaking. Stylistically they are pop music fueled by an eclectic mix of mainly electronica, techno, alternative rock, and hip-hop. Despite this, they are still, as you said, shit.

[Dontknockmedown]

damn, they were actually good once? how come they're so boring and bad now?

[JheriCurlJankins]

Now that it looks like that pink-toe is about to step out dolo, I hope that they get away from that wack ass Pop shit and back to some real Hip Hop like this shit!

[kz1de]

Man, they reminded me somewhat of The Pharcyde back then. Sadly, everything has fallen victim to the proverbial "machine" these days. Miss the good ole 90's.

[SoloEzxt]

I like the Black Eyed Peas. The old school more though. They're b-boyz as you can see from the end of the vid thats y they got dancing music.

[asiparks]

the girl is Kim and her nose, like the rest of her is HOT

[SuperNBANFL]

My favorite song by BEP

[awsomegurl98]

black eyed peas were awsome then and are awsome now yall just cant realize it

[egorja]

@awsomegurl98 says the 12 yr old who doesnt know anything about music

[awsomegurl98]

@egorja My whole family revolves around music! So you can't say nothing until you actually know me!!!! And they had to change abit or else they would of died out. If they stuck to the samed routine, then they would get boring and no one would listen to them. They had to change so they can still stay on top and be around longer.

[rapeqq]

thats real BEP

[gahan101]

Crazy dance moves !!!!!!!!!

[nauris705]

MAYBE SOME OF THE DOPEST DANCERS IVE EVER SEEN. PEOPLE SAY THEY SOLD OUT, BUT THEIR MUSIC ALWAYS SUCKED SO WHO CARES.

[awsomegurl98]

@nauris705 nuh-uh they have always been awsome ur just not smart enough to know it

[08adrven]

fuck yea when music wuz better, i always liked TABOO best, he da shit

[MGKnifeReviews]

wow girl have long nose??

[GritzNGravy]

NIGGA! WTF IS A FERGIE?!?!?!?!

[MsMedford]

@GritzNGravy LMAO!!!

[danijanimi]

this is the jam, shit !...

[AFroese]

Well if any of you were one of the many who illegally downloaded their early albums on Napster I don't think you should really be allowed to btch about them selling out...

[awsomegurl98]

@AFroese AMEN TO THAT!!!!!!!!!!

[DEEJAYANTZZ]

yo this is the PEP man . what happend to them ? changed much

[awsomegurl98]

@DEEJAYANTZZ It's "BEP" Not PEP. So you shouldn't be talking if you can't get their name right.

[Justme93PCD]

Even after this they remained good ! Fergie was not the blame cuz Elephunk and Monkey Business were also amazing but its this techno mainstream shit that they took up later and made them suck

[higgs17]

I'm the white man and I'm the one that showed up with the money. Timberland is my henchman, we are going for wu-tang next

[CZEZ187]

...AND THEN THE WHITE MAN HAS ARRIVED ... WITH SUITCASE FULL OF MONEY AND WHITE GIRL NAMED FERGIE... THEY SIGNED AND THEN NOTHING WAS THE SAME ... : )

[CappieMarvel]

@CZEZ187 HURR DURR BLAME THE WHITES MANS

Dude I am black and it has nothing to do with race and all to do with money. Its as simple as they were not getting money being a underground rap group. They added a pop singer with commercial appeal and thats that.

[CZEZ187]

@CappieMarvel Ye i know i just kidding ... : )

[RAGEBOCOR]

@CZEZ187 Co-signed. Preach the truth!

[jtobon]

@CZEZ187 Totally agree

[Nomis2779]

@CZEZ187 I beg to differ.They didn't have to sell out.THEY sold out.It doesn't matter who influenced them.Just another black person blaming the WHITE man.Get a life.

[CZEZ187]

IM WHITE AND THATS THE POINT YOU SHMUCK : D @Nomis2779 

[WafflNChewyNannas]

I loved this song when it first came out!!

[janalyn629]

before they sold out to capitalism.... they were always a little suspect to me anyway

[Kojo2117]

I didn't know Will I Am could get down like that!!

[AliciaSly]

BEP was great before they became commerical and added Fergie. Shows were hyped, too. Haven't bought their music since Bridging the Gap.

[jtobon]

Absolutely agree!

[WinxFairyPhoebe]

Waaaaaaay better than "That's The Joint", the new version of this song. I seriously love all their music, but I can't listen to That's The Joint. I can't STAND it. This is so much better! <3

[bboykyt]

give them a rest. they've contributed to the hip hop community enuf. they've left, but they also left a dam good mark on the hip hop community and wat we listen to. BEP left an enormous influence on real hip hop and many bands have tried to replace them (must unsuccessful to replicate their prowess) but still. u gotta admit that BEP, although sellouts, have done some amazing shit for underground hip hop.

[WynterNinja]

before they got whipped by that bitch

[CurlyChickNYC]

Who is the singer?

[jaylov168]

@CurlyChickNYC Kim hill

[Smokingfilla]

WAAAAAAY BETTER than all that imma be stuff but I guess they still didnt sell out as hard as everybody else

[reyestino01]

yeah . the black eyed peas SUUCKKKKKKKK now!

[8bitDETH]

i seldomly use the term sell out but yeah if i had to describe the word to someone and had to use an example i'd have to go with black eyed peas for real. i mean these dudes used to be all about the underground hip hop ethic of "friends vs. endz." im sorry but changing format to be more pop sensible, and regardless of what you think... but also aiming for a specific target audience ie adding fergie to your group? c'mon who you kidding with that bep did not sell out mess?

[carlolikesrice0]

they were better back then

[nojusticenoweed]

when money wasn't in the minds from musicians!!!!!

[ybm623]

i love this song!

[killerpunk4000]

apple.d got dreaadz:D

[thespursareadynasty]

Black Eyed Peas did NOT sell out. they still make dope music thats all bout peace love and partying. they've drifted away from their hip hop beginings but the music they put out is still unique and true to themselves. they arent just following mainstream trends. just because YOU dont like the new music doesnt mean they sold out

[kalpal67]

@thespursareadynasty the same idiots that talk that shit now probably never even bought a freakin cd from them back then

[RadDacey]

@kalpal67 i did. i bought 2 of their cds when they first came out in 98 and 2000 respectively, and had both of them ever since. not everyone's a casual fan, i know i'm not. i don't buy albums off mainstream popularily. i only buy them if they're at least good, and those 2 albums were great. i refused to buy elephunk when they brought in that annoying skank from a lame failed girl group and that shitty disney music show from 84. i don't blame the originals, i blame that bitch.

[kalpal67]

@RadDacey thats a great concept to have but it goes the other way as well! You can't not buy it just because it IS mainstream. Elephunk had some good cuts on there! Didn't like them all but i wouldn't say they sold out! Its just like even in the 90's era they were doing crossover songs like "request line" that sound just like the stuff they doin now. but nobody says anything about that because they only hate when you make it.

[awsomegurl98]

@thespursareadynasty I agree. I liked the music back then(even if I wasn't born when they first came out but my cousins introduced me to their music at an early age) and I think that they are still good. All of their songs old and new, you are able to dance to and of course there is always a song or two about peace and love and coming together. I have only 4 of their cds and still looking for the other 2 before Fergie.

[welthead]

what album is this song from? it's so different from everything I've ever heard from them

[jaimeand]

tru hiphop!! where did they put it?

[nojusticenoweed]

wow this reminds me of complete different time...wtf happend???

[melg0510]

I feel so cheated and made that they sold out by making generic party tracks when they are capable of making music like this.

[SponggieYO]

Back in the day when these dudes had soul and there really were the jam... I miss the old group, feel like they have lost it over time:( still like them but it isent the same..

[DizzyXD]

Holy shit! I'm not a big fan of Black Eyed Peas because I only knew about them when they had their Album Elephunk out in 2003, and Other than "Where is the Love" I didn't like that album at all. But damn son, this is off the hook! This is way better than their newer stuff. If only I knew about them back in 1998, I would've bought this album for sure. Stupid Fergie. "My Humps" is a shit song!!

[RadDacey]

now this is when the black eyed peas were outstanding, and this is coming from someone who's been a fan from the mid-90s until 2003. they had kim hill who was not only talented, but also had meaning.

[RadDacey]

@RadDacey then came fuck faced fergie, a then-uknown pop singer who ruined the black eyed peas. sure she has talent (sounds like an idol contestant), but her lyrics are fucking pointless. she tries so fucking hard to act like sweet innocent good girl. i know some of her stans on here are gonna defend her and say she was awesome in kids inc and wild orchid, but who the fuck knew about her then? not many, only the disney channel viewers did.

I miss this Black Eyed Peas and FERGIE MUST DIE!!!

[DizzyXD]

@RadDacey Haha, love it. Stans= Stupid Fans. :D

[mike12jrw1111113]

@DizzyXD No a stan is a reference to The eminem song where the guy named Stan was obsessed with eminem. When someone is called a Stan it means their ready to defend that musician to the ends of the earth. The person is basically a ridiculously dedicated fan to the musician. Stan is used on some music forums to describe these kinds of people.

[DizzyXD]

@mike12jrw1111113 Meh, I like mine better. Anyone who is willing to defend something to the bitter end without seeing both sides is a moron anyway. Or maybe I'm just too open minded.

[JRRDPR]

THEIR BEST TUNE

[UnspokenHeard26]

wow a track from the BEP´s with more than 5 words....and without shitty voice-synth

good track!

[Vegito1989]

I Love this man the old days! JUST LOVE IT!

[gangstafaceoff]

what a ugly women

[MirkoTheDragonMaia]

wow. the black eyed peas sold out BIG TIME! this used to be one of my favorite songs, and now that theyve sold out, i dont even know if i can listen to it anymore. this was back when music was real, back in the 90's. im just amazed at how much theyve changed, and not in good way. people who love them now probaly have never heard this song and if they did hear it they would probaly say something like "this is back when they sucked" because people today dont know real music.

[gloogloo09]

@MirkoTheDragonMaia i've tuned in since elephunk, when fergie, came in... and i'm really liking this song, though this is my first time hearing it... but i also love wht they got going on now, it's a different age... different styles... i wouldn't call it selling out though, maybe adaptation to the changing times?

[NubianRootsCouture]

All fergie does is sell their records, flashing her ass! Black Eyed Peas Sold out big time. This was sooo soulful and real. Shame! Money changes things and now they have both cut their dreds. The Media pressured them to conform in order to make money!

[KoldMannDamm]

Ahh, the good old days before everything got all...Fergalicious.

[RoRoFab79]

@KoldMannDamm true, i was kind oogle eyed when they went pop....

[BasekProducer]

@KoldMannDamm Haha! True

[moochie1971]

@KoldMannDamm I'm glad I'm not the only one w/ this view. I remember when they first came out w/ this & I thought they were going to be the next Native Tongue type hip hop group. Wah wannnn.

[wowelk]

@KoldMannDamm lol i only discovered the older stuff once fergie joined the peas - and have found a few songs that and fukay - this is one of them - <3 it

[zimmcat]

why did them sell outs change?

[JayMerc75]

Now that they made all their money with pop star Fergie they should do an old skool album again minus Fergie!!

[veesone]

agree

[linh867]

wheres fergie

[max27viking]

missing the old times..

[sharq2nd2none]

this my joint this my jam....they was gettin down in this video

[AGOTV]

COOL VIDEO =D

[AGOTV]

they should go back to the way it was, classic old skool!

[nuttybuttymike1]

Remember back when Black Eyed Peas were good? Back when this song came out? Back before Fergie? Think of this song the next time you hear "Boom Boom Pow"

[GotMeWrong1984]

Love this song, wish BEP could've stuck with this style. If you're looking for something similar, checkout Jurassic 5.

[JamaicanHotBoy115]

Man this was a classic for real.

[quincy965]

Dumb ass haters asking what happed to them, now they rich as fuck 'I got a feeling" is daily night anthem in every damn corner of the WORLD!!!!!!

[ages6plus]

DUDE WHAT HAPPENED!!!! IT USED TO BE STRAIGHT UP OLDSKOOL AND NOW its all futuryisticic

[iCrazybitchtv]

i am so lost...

[MrDoodyHead4Eva]

all I can say is...

WHAT HAPPENED?!?

[rtscott2001]

I just laughed hysterically, "WHY IS FERGIE BLACK!!!??" Cuz they used to have more soul... but like a jack in the box, they went POP, and forgot to listen to early KOol and the gAng, or Mandrill, or Fatback, to inspire and have socially educated content and music to their shit.... I believe that to be Kim Hill... who brought a good element to BEP

[taylorlaunterishot1]

thats not fergie

[pele3006]

hahah they make fergie black in this song :)

[papitodo]

RIP Black eyed peas

[MH20Zone]

All the time when BEP Started....they always like...fighted for the camera....lol srsly =o

[MH20Zone]

that girl may be replaced on fergie coz she dont sing much in the vid thats what will i am wants....fergie was always on monitor 1st on BEP...dmn itz all weird whos the part bep...=o

[coolmusicforyou1]

i can see why they changed their style. good song but this shit didnt sell. its all about the benjamins baby lol.

[tnwar330]

@coolmusicforyou1 - Sad but true

[misticbrew]

its all about selling out huh............. shut the fucc up!!!!!!!!!

yall dont appreciate gud music... yall just want something to make up ur dumb ass dances too

[coolmusicforyou1]

@misticbrew lol why u telling me this. tell this to black eyed peas. they stop making good hip hop music for commercial shit. shit that sells records.

[SuperSayayinFaN]

Is That´s The Joints!!! New Song!!

[Rebekah1823]

i would like to know the name of the women who was in the Black eyed peas...anyone know??

[dopeandcrazy]

Kim Hill

[Rebekah1823]

@dopeandcrazy

[bepRox321]

It's been a long time since they all had long hair before Apl got that goofy mawhawk, and who's that lady?

[TheUltramagnus1]

BEP before they sold out

[ultradarkbones]

Agreed!

[dopeandcrazy]

totally agree with you. the real black eyed peas are gone

[Ayala84]

@warpigANONYMOUS

Like how Lauren Hill ruined the Fugees?

[Ayala84]

@warpigANONYMOUS

Like how Lauren Hill ruined the Fugees?

Fergie would probably slap me for saying that. =O

[misticbrew]

na yo mom ruined the fugees...........

[teryork]

@Ayala84 How did lauren hill ruin the fugees

[micines]

Money, not Fergie

[Ayala84]

@3:07

Hahahaha!

[lpc0615]

This is the Black Eye Peas I know. I have this song on one of those Source various artists albums. Anyways, why did they get rid of that lady for Fergie? Unless Black Eye Peas didn't have a lady in a group. I love this song this is my joiint & jam.

[ProductOfThe80s90s]

They got money now like everyone esle ha just look at snoop busta jay-z compare their 1998 cds to their 2009 cds the only way you sayin their shit is hot now is if you just got one of their albums recently. Hell outkast some folks first cd was love below/speakerbox so its old fans vs new fans outkast always kept the music outkast never this is whats hot.

[misticbrew]

totally agee

[stainer12]

I despise fergies voice its sounds like shit....she cant sing.
