The Black Eyed Peas have clearly found a winning formula and are sticking to it. As the release date for their 6th studio album ‘The Beginning’ draws nearer, new material from the LP continues to surface – the most recent being Electro-Thumper ‘Do It Like This’.
Take a listen after the jump…
It’s safe to say the Fergie-led foursome are unapologetically channelling the sound on their last musical outing ‘The E.N.D’. Understandable, given the multi-Platinum success of the album. Yet, increasingly worrying is the “samey-ness” of the Peas’ offerings as of late.
While some, perhaps sillily, long for the socially concious Peas of yesteryear (it’s just not going to happen), I simply sought more variety in their releases (see: ‘Where Is The Love’). For, lyrically and on the production front, ‘Like This’ offers little of substance, and joins an ever-mounting pile of generic Club tracks which the group seem to be championing these days.
By no means bad, yet not at all great.
