The E.N.D. is the Black Eyed Peas' latest studio release since Monkey Business in 2005. According to Will.I.Am, this is a compilation of singles, because "the album is dead" (I completely agree). The album is predictably quirky, funk fused, dance pop. To do pop successfully, you have to have good production (beats) and a catchy phrase. The tracks should not require heavy thinking and should could dance floor ready! Black Eyed Peas have been perfecting this craft since 1998, and if you loved their formula in the past, you will love this album. There are a few misses, such as "Out of My Head" and "One Tribe", but as whole this album is bubblegum pop at its best. It completely understands it was created for the weekend, and it serves its purpose! The best song on the album is of course "Boom Boom Pow", but other standouts are "Ring A Ling", "Party All The Time", and "Electric City". The Deluxe Edition isn't necessary, all the songs you are going to pump are in the regular version. Listen below and comment!

Bottom Line: Soundtrack for the Summer!

We now have a total of 11 out of the 17 songs from the Black Eyed Peas album for you enjoy, before you buy the album on June 9th! The 12th song on the player below, "I Cant Make You Dance" did not make the cut. I cant say that I like "Rock That Body" (track 2), "Outta My Head" (track 10), or "Now Generation" (track 11 on my player), but out of all 3 of them, "Outta My Head" is the easiest to listen to throughout, even if your only reason is the funky beat. Try and find these songs somewhere else!!! Tell me what you think below!
