Yo! the Black Eyed Peas track "Joints and jams" is da BOMB! It's gotta
funky-ass rhythm like the Meters, and I guess they always play with a
live band. YES! Like Digable Planets, Roots, Goodie Mob. That video is
the most fun I've seen in a video, since Drop by Pharcyde. Long Llve
groovy, funky, jazzy- based Hip Hop! FUCK the R&B (Puff Daddy, Big Pun,
Mase, Timbaland& Magoo,etc.)/ rap crossover!They get the GASFACE!!!!!!

Wonderful, I'm glad you're out there. But I wasn't referring to you nor was
I trying to put down the whole newsgroup, only to those morons who posted
shit like, "Black Eyed Peas are kinda corny" or "Their live
show....WAAAACK!" or "They sound like the offspring of a homosexual affair
between the Roots and The Pharcyde" blah blah blah. I think you know about
those fools I'm talking about.
