will.i.am - Lost Change

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. Album Description

 KRS-One Setting the Pace Again
As with the previously released BE RIGHT, this album takes no prisoners and relies on nothing but the the truth. No fluff in this set of originals! July 17, 2006

 this has rhythm!!! get off your a$$ and enjoy this!!!
if you want a cd that uplifts you to a "groove mood", then this one does it. now don't be fooled, it isn't exactly like black eyed peas joints. it has its own presence when playing. you can on some feel the will. i. am of black eyed peas on some of the songs. basically, if you want something to set a great vibe for you yourself or more people this does that.

Man this has to one the best cds ever. I never really listened to the black eyed peas to much but I check this cd out and it takes hip hop to another level. October 22, 2003

 Instrumental Series???
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. September 29, 2002

 Could be a whole lot better....Nothing to Brag About
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. August 27, 2002
