Will. I. Am. Of the Black Eyed Peas has recently admitted that he no longer enjoys singing the groups former hit “My Humps” because he can’t stand the song’s lyrics.
Apparently Will. I. Am. Has never listened to any of the other Black Eyed Peas songs…
Though it was one of the groups biggest hits in 2005, Will admits he quickly grew tired of playing the song at concerts.
He tells MTV.com, “Before… it was like, ‘We know we gotta play (hit songs) ‘Pump It’ and ‘Let’s Get It Started.’ We used to do ‘Let’s Get It Started’ at the end, because that was our big finale, which didn’t really make sense. And for a while, (we did) ‘My Humps’ and then it got to the point where we didn’t want to play ‘My Humps’ no more. You know, ’cause ‘I met a girl down at the disco’ – I just didn’t want to say that no more, lyrically. It wasn’t like my best lyrically.
“But it was fun. It wasn’t lyrical miracles, but the beat was rocking, so we throw the beat in there and just let the beat linger.”
We agree with Will in the sense that it’s not the best lyrically, but the Black Eyed Peas aren’t generally known for being lyrical geniuses.
