Editorial Reviews

This album continues to span the musical styles of ‘Bridging The Gap’ and will appeal equally to beat headz, new & old jazz listeners, lovers of soul, in fact anyone who is into high quality music. The Black Eyed Peas' music incorporates everything from hip-hop, jungle and trip-hop.

The group's diverse makeup includes will.i.am, an African American raised in East L.A, he is the group's lead rapper.

3.0 out of 5 stars Instrumental Series???, September 29, 2002

This CD is something of a mixed bag. I liked Pete Rock's installment in this series, and someday I'm gonna get around to picking up Jazzy Jeff's. I like the musical aspects of this album but the vocals definitely leave something to be desired. Though Will.I.Am tries very hard to be avant-garde and something different than commercial West Coast rap, most of the vocal tracks still have that sound. He'll take a bangin' beat and throw simplistic, over-repetitive vocals on them, and so the results are not satisfying. The track with Madd Dogg is just plain awful. Most of the instrumental tracks are great, but my other main complaint about this CD is that many of the good instrumentals are very short, and end just when you're getting into them. This is a decent CD, but in my opinion it would have been much better if some of the vocal tracks were removed and the short instrumentals were expanded. Too much posturing and not enough creativity do not add up to a great album.

2.0 out of 5 stars Could be a whole lot better....Nothing to Brag About, August 27, 2002

This album only gets 2 stars for track number 2 & 3. Track number 2 "Lay me Down" with Terry Dexter will cause you to break your neck. The rest of the songs on this are filler, lackluster attempts at trying to be avant-garde.
