Black Eyed Peas, Practice what you preach

This petition has been started because the Black Eyed Peas have failed to keep their word on a promise made Friday, November 2, 2001 which stated:





"Still, Taboo says, hip hop is far removed from its original focus and BEP would like nothing better than to change prevailing attitudes in the industry with their unique brand of head-bobbing, back-to-the-roots positivity. "If I could, I would change the message in hip hop now," he says. "The message being 'go ahead, flash that ice' or 'buy Cristal,' 'sip Moet,' 'buy Dolce and Gabbana and Gucci.' All that is not hip hop."

I will now direct you to the song "my humps" where it states:





"I do it on the daily,


They treat me really nicely,


They buy me all these ices.


Dolce & Gabbana,


Fendi and NaDonna"





We demand that The Black Eyed Peas clean up their act and start practicing what they preach.
